Golden Earring: Twilight Zone

I got this song stuck in my head for one simple reason. That reason is here: http://www.williamshatner.com/Article419.phtml

That looks like it should be a fun album, hope it is well produced as the last one.

Amy MacDonald - This Is The Life

Can't remember if I've hyped this one yet or not(or if someone's beat me to it!) and too lazy/tired to look it up. So here's a link to the song~

David Bowie: Heathen (The Rays)

So Heathen's pretty great. I still don't really dig the covers (though is that a theremin in the background on I Took a Trip On a Gemini Spaceship?) but all the original material is gold. Would put it up there with Scary Monsters for best albums of his that I've picked up. It helps that my favorite (see above pimping) is saved for last. Most of the best albums do that, I've found. Pacing!

Grefter · « **Reply #240 on:** April 22, 2011, 10:53:41 PM »

Dammit Cid, now I need to listen to songs off it. I personally totally dig the covers though. They are mostly Bowie going back 20 or more years to pay homage to old friends. Insert obligatory goddamn how many years have I been shilling this album as great and you only pick it up now etc.

If you like Heathen you really have got to pick up ... hours and Reality as well.

David Bowie - 5:15 The Angels Have Gone.

Sierra · « **Reply #241 on:** April 23, 2011, 01:04:52 AM »

I got it last year sometime, so minus one from quantity of Grefter bitching. Picked up ...hours and Reality around Christmastime largely on strength of Heathen being awesome. ...hours is pretty good, Reality I still haven't entirely processed. And it might just be me not being fond of covers in general for those tracks. Cactus is the best of those because hey, Pixies (I saw him play that live once and he castigated the audience for not buying more Pixies albums--"Then they wouldn't have broken up!"), but the Neil Young song really underwhelms. It's rare that I'm blown away by a cover song, really; can't think of many good examples outside of the last Peter Gabriel album (which pretty consistently knocks it out of the park).

Electric Six - The World's Smallest Human Being

Everybody's wondering how you're making love to the world's smallest human being
You say he walks and talks like everybody else and baby he got feelings
It's not who you are... it's who you know
Not how tall you are but how you grow~
