Bikini Kill: "Jet Ski"



repeat
he's so not worth it
and you're way too good for him

...
Ain't got no more
No more candy for you
I'm not your rocket ship
Or your motor boat
Your movie set
Or your cartoon show
Not your fucking VCR
Not you avantegard postcard idea
I'm not your oilwell
I'm not your bloodbank
I'm not your bullet proof vest
Or your Visa card
I ain't got no more candy for you
I said I'm not your vacation spot
I'm not your footnote, freakshow
Or your latest cause
I'm not your view to a kill
I'm not your background tune
I'm not the nutty story
That your neighbors been telling to you
I ain't got no candy for you
I said I'm not your oilwell
I'm not your dimestore novel
Or your prison cell
I ain't got no candy for you
...

this made it through my car speakers
about six or more times on my drive
back to portland from my mom's house
after hiding out from heartbreak
for a couple of days

on the way down, i drove in silence
four hours and some minutes of it,
minus some old radio show action
in the last hour... which lost me, quickly
nazis and such, that was the takeaway, bombs

on the way back, a special little lady
told me to blast some music and rock out
or cry or whatever i needed to do
so i decided to do just that

i thought for a while,
what would not turn me into
a gushy ball of heartbroken tears?

bikini kill

then this track came on
in the random playlist of angry girl
goodness

totally did the trick
perfect for the haters
blast it, hate them
love you
(and bikini kill)

the usual:
website / buy it / download
check it / worth it / play it / do it

Hot Chip: "Wrestlers"




hit in the face

still on the floor
why did you have to do it?

...

It's me versus you alone
It's me versus you alone
It's me versus you alone
It's me versus you alone
It's me versus you alone

We'll tag team, double up

Hit you in the sweet spot
And make you wish you'd coughed up

The gloves are off

The gloves are off
It's me, [Incomprehensible] messing round
Taking us a man down

While you've got us on the ropes

We've planned to play the mess around
He's technically trained
You've got him buckled up and he will misbehave

You weigh bigger than a train

But I've got the power and the glory
In my dirty brains

The gloves are off

The gloves are off
So why'd you go and have to fight dirty?
Don't fight dirty, don't hit me with the chair

The gloves are off

So why'd you go and have to fight dirty?
Don't fight dirty, don't bite me in the face
The gloves are off

Now what you gonna do when I come for you

With all that I've got?
I've got a roll of coins, I'm aiming for your loins
And I will never stop

I learned all I know from watching the wrestling

I think you think I'm about to throw the towel in

Here comes Floor Jack

Watch your back, watch your back
He'll charm you with a double-axe
And then he brings the tie attacks
He's not dressed for a cage
He's robed in garments strictly for another age

Here we come, drop kick

Half nelson, full nelson
Willie Nelson, Willie Nelson

Body slam, suplex, headlock, summer-slam, elbow drop

Jelly-flop, cage match, grudge match, snamsno, snamsniey
Alfieley, alscgoboi, nelsonmas allday, skeluas

It's me versus me, versus me, versus me

Versus me, versus me, versus me, versus me, versus me
I learned all I know from watching the wrestling
I think you think I'm about to throw the towel in
Everyone knows Monday night means wrestling

...

i used to listen to this
on repeat, all the time.
i think i listened to it differently
though, until last week...

now, the hit me with the chair
bite me in the face business,
is the part that rings in my ears.
the fight dirty part.

otherwise, it's sort of catchy
and sweet... it's a multi-tasking
type of song.

today, it hurts, too much
and i don't even want to hear it.
but i'll leave it here for you*
who cannot be named.

*everyone gets names, you don't
you'll just be like he-who-must-not-be-named
for now, and then you'll be gone.

check out hot chip's website for more
and spend your money
because it'll sound better once it's yours
than this single will from me

Salt-N-Pepa: "Let's Talk About Sex"


Salt-N-Pepa - Let's Talk About Sex (Original Recipe Club Mix)


Found at skreemr.org

been on the road, again. sorry
for the delay. i've been waiting
to put this one up here.

...

CHORUS:
Let's talk about sex, baby
Let's talk about you and me
Let's talk about all the good things
And the bad things that may be
Let's talk about sex [4x]

Let's talk about sex for now
to the people at home or in the crowd
It keeps coming up anyhow
Don't decoy, avoid, or make void the topic
Cuz that ain't gonna stop it
Now we talk about sex on the radio and video shows
Many will know anything goes
Let's tell it how it is, and how it could be
How it was, and of course, how it should be
Those who think it's dirty have a choice
Pick up the needle, press pause, or turn the radio off
Will that stop us, Pep?
I doubt it
All right then, come on, Spin

[CHORUS]

Hot to trot, make any man's eyes pop
She use what she got to get whatever she don't got
Fellas drool like fools, but then again they're only human
The chick was a hit because her body was boomin'
Gold, pearls, rubies, crazy diamonds
Nothin' she wore was ever common
Her dates heads of state, men of taste
Lawyers, doctors, no one was too great for her to get with
Or even mess with, the Pres she says was next on her list
And believe me, you, it's as good as true
There ain't a man alive that she couldn't get next to
She had it all in the bag, so she should have been glad
But she was mad and sad and feelin' bad
Thinkin' about the things that she never had
No love, just sex, followed next with a check and a note
That last night was dope

Let's talk about sex, baby (sing it)
Let's talk about you and me (sing it, sing it)
Let's talk about all the good things
And the bad things that may be
Let's talk about sex (come on)
Let's talk about sex (do it)
Let's talk about sex (uh-huh)
Let's talk about sex

Ladies, all the ladies, louder now, help me out
Come on, all the ladies - let's talk about sex, alright
[repeat]

(Yo, Pep, I don't think they're gonna play this on the radio
And why not? Everybody has sex
I mean, everybody should be makin' love
Come on, how many guys you know make love?)

[CHORUS]

...

this song has stuck with me since i was in
kindergarten, 1991, the year of its release,
to be precise. i remember singing it with my
friends while walking to school, dancing to the
video in my living room, and blasting it
on the three disc cd player in my bedroom.


despite knowing all the words, and playing
it on repeat multiple times, it really didn't
mean much to me at that point in time. today
it's a little different, as you can imagine.

i found this song especially fitting
for a recent conversation i found myself
in the midst of the other day. leaning
against my car was my not-so-stranger boy,
listening to me say, "sex is serious,"
and him saying something to the effect of,
"sex is always better when both people can
talk about it."


so, yes, salt 'n' pepa, let's talk about sex.
because not-so-stranger boy has a point,
and i know i was right too.

that being said, i am donating this song
to anyone who is talking around, not talking
about, or trying to figure out how and when
to talk about sex. download this gem,
burn a cd or throw it on your i(whatever),
and hit play when your not-so-stranger boy/girl
is in the car with you. it will be the perfect
icebreaker for any and all conversations
about sex. really tricky parents could even
use it to initiate the dreaded sex talk...
imagine that.

on repeat: "Winter's Love"



because i love winter so much,
and it's fully retreated into hibernation,
i thought this was worthy of a repeat.

and it was a request,
so i know at least one person
wants to hear it again.

enjoy.

on repeat: "Red Cave"



on the road again...
so this video is fitting,
as they are in motion as well.

if you are impatient, like many people,
you can fast forward to 2:30 and that's
where "red cave" starts. if not, sit back
and enjoy, it's a pretty interesting take
on live music videos.

on repeat: "Another Breakfast With You"

on repeat: "Love vs. Porn"


while it's not the official music video...
the only other options are those videos
where you just stare at an album cover,
while a crappy quality version of the song plays
in the background. so! this a very random video
that i found with love vs. porn playing.
and i like it.

ever find yourself located at exactly
33°15′32″N 115°27′59″W / 33.25889°N 115.46639°W /
33.25889; -115.46639? i have not. yet.

wonder what it was that made him question
love vs. porn while there?
lack of humans is my first guess.
that whole no other options theory...
it flew in the bible, so it would definitely
fly in slab city. again, personal opinion.

on repeat: "Concept of Love"


guess i'm stuck on this
understanding business...
lost cause for the most part.
no, that's unnecessarily negative.
it takes work, but it's worth it.

so, enjoy the flashback to
jet grind (or jet set in japan)
radio with all the characters
busting hot rollerblading moves
to a medley of video game tracks.

on repeat: "Skinny Love"


who will love you?
who will fight?
who will be far behind?

...

my brother told me he would
give his leg or foot for my life,
but that he wouldn't want to give
his hand... he's an artist.

later that week i had a dream
and in it there was this man chasing
me, trying to kill me.
eventually he caught me and as i
was pleading for my life, i found myself
asking him to cut my arm off, below the
elbow, attempting to convince him
he didn't actually want to kill me.
i couldn't find my brother.

on repeat: "Depression"


don't know if you're
feeling this one today...
but there is something
very catchy about it to me.

also, another random thought,
how often do you think
david longstreth is alone
now that dirty projectors are
so loved by so many?

so rest easy knowing he
(just an assumption) could
get most girls he wanted and
spends lots of time riding in
his van with the rest of his gang.
