leapin' lizards!













track 30 was "hearbeat" from annie off of the album anniemal. pitchfork rated it as the best single of 2004, just like they rated track 29 as the best single of 2005.

people like to talk badly about pitchfork (subpop, something awful, wikipedia forum), but i say, "don't slag 'em off." back in the early days of napster, when i was looking for more and more music to download, i happened across pitchfork's best of list for the year, and discovered a lot of music i wouldn't have otherwise. when they did their little april fool's joke about changing to a more mainstream publication, i got almost physically sick. i disagree with them about a lot of things, but i'll probably be reading for a long time to come.

track 31

in a scientific poll, 3 out of 4 people said they would rather slap alanis than avril lavigne. i have to respectfully disagree. speaking of which,

(from billboard.com)
"Avril Lavigne's hit single "Sk8er Boi" is going to be turned into a movie. Paramount Pictures has optioned the song and hired "ER" writer/producer David Zabel to adapt its words into a feature film to be produced by Paramount-based MTV Films and Alphaville.
The song, which captures the divide between cliques and cultures, is about a teenage girl who rejects a skater boy with a crush on her because her friends didn't approve of him -- even though she secretly likes him. Years later, he becomes a famous rock star and she is left with regrets."

there you have it.

have you done the surround sound flaming lips thing? i've been to your house and i didn't see 4 cd players. i haven't heard it, but zero point zero!

as for track 31, the web was no good to me. same artist?
