A Blast from the Past

There Is No I In “Theme,” But There Is a You

If you’ve been a regular listener of the show over the past few months, then you know that periodically I’ve been using a very simple theme: picking a letter of the alphabet and then selecting songs from artists whose names begin with that letter. I started with “A” and have been going alphabetically, and the next letter up is the letter “I.”

Normally, I’ve been selecting all of the artists and songs for these alphabetical themes. But I want to give you a chance this time. What “I” artists do you want to hear on the show? Remember, all of the artists must begin with the letter I–for solo artists, this means the last name; for groups, just the group name (disregard “the” in front of the group name, if there is one).

You don’t have to stop with the artist name: if you have a particular song you want to suggest from that artist, knock yourself out. The song does NOT have to be a hit (if you’re a fan of the show, you know that already), but it’s worth mentioning that the more obscure the song is, the more difficult it may be for me to find it. Don’t let that stop you, though–I do like a good challenge sometimes.

Obviously, I reserve the right to pick my own songs from the artists you suggest, or even none (I mean, it is my show after all). But rest assured, if the artist/song you suggest fits the theme, is appropriate for radio airplay, and I can find it, then there’s a pretty good chance I’ll get it in the show.

So, send me an email or use the link on this page to make your suggestions on the Facebook fan page for the show.

And yes, this means I’m truly looking forward to your emails.

Best Lip-Synch Ever

This video has been making the Interweb rounds this week. It’s actress Emma Stone appearing on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. In the clip, you’ll see Emma completely nail it the two songs she lip-synchs. Fallon is pretty good, too, and you have to love the choice of “Mr. Roboto.”

Cheesy Video Alert!

As mentioned on this weekend’s “Money” show, this is one of the cheesiest videos you’ve seen…from an era of cheesy videos.

Because you must!

I’m sure you’ve already seen this awesome music video of Christopher Walken dancing, since it’s been making its way around the interwebs. Not only is this a fabulous showcase of the many times Walken has danced in his movies, it’s also a fabulous editing job.

If you’ve not seen it, then you simply have to watch it…because you must.

Enjoy!

(For some reason, the video won’t embed in this post, so the link is to the video on the Huffington Post site.)
