i'm loving it...

the new single by bat for lashes, "daniel."

the song is really beautiful. the video kinda reminds me of those fruit of the loom guys getting stuck in bjork's "human behaviour" video.

but the guy in the end with the totally 80's karate kid headband is making me wonder if she's singing to daniel-san himself...coincidence? genius? the world may never know.

this one's for the mothers...and Mr. T

so yeah, i know. i haven't posted in a while. but this being a special day when we all show thanks for our moms (and thanks for not personally being a mom), i thought it necessary to post this video gem. i hope you appreciate it by treating your mom right (apparently this involves NOT using "yo mama" jokes).

i still can't figure out why eddie murphy's "party all the time" was a HUGE hit and this somehow escaped the pop music charts and the cultural-idiom standing it deserves. i never knew mr. t was such a mama's boy AND an eloquent wordsmith. anywho, on with the show...



OH, and if you skipped out early, go back to the last 3 seconds when the illiterate chick from "Summer School" gives us some genuine words of wisdom. still trying to figure out if she did this before or after the aforementioned film. it's a pretty great cameo, as i've never seen her in anything else, ever.
