YOU CAN'T NOT GET NO SATISFACTION

Top Down, Driving Music

Posted about 1 year ago
..Komeda is a Swedish band that makes music with a smile, wink and a nod... You may remember them from that VolksWagon commercial song, "There's a puh, puh, puh, puh party goin' on!"... Cool little tune... but Komeda has much better... ..The first of two Komeda tracks I'm posting is called "Stjarna," and it's one of my favorite driving songs of all times... a rolling, shiny tune for putting the top down while driving all over the place. If I happen to be in a sour mood, this one seems to right the ship... Listen to it now, but save it for Spring when you can hit the road with a blue sky and plenty of sunshine.....

  2. poebegone says delish! top down, driving is perfect. i've known these guys since the mid-90s when i really got into Minty Fresh, but only through songs here and there. i think it's time for me to actually buy an album, thanks for the reintro. (:

  4. FastRMacR says Dude! You own a convertible? Awesome - perfect tunes. OOOooo I so like these tracks .. thanks (any more?). :-) I find the eyes that you paint quite lovely, so this painting is interesting with the sun having the 'gleam'. Wish it were here in this 28 degree CO, great-for-motorcycling weather. That hat and those toasty songs would sure keep you warm!

  5. ZenPop says thanks Poe... I, too, got into MintyFresh... really good little label... (more about that in a future post...) Miss Lila... let me know how it went... I keep hearing Austin is the best thing about Texas...... ...and FastR... sadly... I don't own a convertible... (I just roll down the windows of my Honda and stick my head out... (then I can't hear the music as well, so I stick my head back in and roll up the windows...) ...and I see you found the BWRnR song!... thanks for popping that up!... and thanks for the nice words on the art... (that's more of my older stuff...)

  6. ZeppoNoir says Great track. That songs gives hope to all of us musicians who suck at writing lyrics.
