Guilty Pleasures

O.K., so I was once just seventeen years old. I was in a band and having ripping sex with my bass player. It was extremely hot. We were in love.

Lil' puppies in heat.

So I guess this is why, so many years later, I find a great deal of pleasure in a site called HEAVY.COM.


So, go to the site, turn off the music at the bar at the top, then select Heavy Music, then More Features, (so many more) and then select the category for "Alternative".

There you will find listed the following guilty pleasures:

CHAVEZ

Breaking Up Your Band-video - Wow, male strippers!

DANDY WARHOLS

Bohemian Like You - I like the song a lot, and the grunge looking kids.... (full frontal nudity warning!)

CORNERSHOP

Lessons Learned From Rocky I to Ricky III I've always liked this group, they don't sound like anyone else....

PULP

Bad Cover Version This is funny.

THE HIVES

Hate To Say I Told You So-Video. I like this video because we actually used to wear clothes like this in 1967! The lead singer looks a bit like my lead singer in my band. My bass player was much prettier... much, much, much.


ICELAND - UBER ALLES!

SIGUR ROS



I love both the videos here, and I totally love all the music these guys make! The sound of this group is great, and the videos are rather stunning and shocking.


AND THE GODDESS, BJORK



O.K., I know that some people hate her... and I must admit that she has very strange taste in clothes. But she has an amazing voice and an incredible sense of what music should sound like.

AND MOBY IS THERE ALSO

I just like Moby...


Next, I'll talk about the guilty pleasures that I have on my hard drive! (a very esoteric collection...)


BTW, chat was really loads of fun last nite! Thanks mass, trip!, sean, MQ and dazed and jazzy! It was truly entertaining!

Hugs to you all!
