"MissBreadCrumb":CH made a post which got me thinking about all of you and what tunes do you listen to when you roll out of bed and head off to work.For me it depends on what type of a mood I'm in, but I've noticed that there are a few consistencies. ??Ease On Down The Road?? by Bonnie "Prince" Billy is an album I put on a lot in my mornings. There is a song on that album called "Knight At Nigh...

Remember the Beatles tune "Hello Goodbye"? Lyrics go something like "You say hello, and I say goodbye."Adding to his music catalog another song that starts with "I am..." (see "I Am Cinematographer" and "I a\Am Sky"), indie singer-songwriter and Allen Ginsberg beard thief Bonnie "Prince" Billy has invented his own 21st century folk version of the Beatles classic with "I Am Goodbye." Layered wit...

She made a sarcastic comment about me liking upbeat music on my last post...I can't have her going around ruining my hard earned reputation!So I present the saddest song I know...some call this depressing, I call it beautiful

I sometimes forget what a great songwriter Bruce Springsteen was. Or is...I don't mean to eulogize the guy, its just that I think sometimes I am guilty of overlooking him sometimes...probably because during my formative music years, he wasn't really on my radar so much...but he did pen some classics...just wanted to share this Bonnie Prince Billy version of 'Thunder Road'

I will forever associate all of Will Oldham's music with alcohol. I just love the downtrodden beauty of his songs...so stark, so beautiful. I am loving the new album...and I am getting thirsty,

The soundtrack to this post will be "A...

sorry, I just threw up in my mouth a little. As much as I dislike everything that Princess Mariah stands for, Will Oldham seems to make everything a little better...meets (with fake, drawn on abs)

*rating* 9.0*summary* the "Prince" releases the counterpoint to his previous masterwork, "I See A Darkness" - and leaves us wondering which is more terrifying.There are few heroes in the indie-world.In this landscape of conciousness connected almost solely on the single principle of popularity-as-poison it's near impossible for legends to manifest themselves - the bright flame of their influenc...

The prolific Bonnie "Prince" Billie aka Will Oldham strikes again with a video from the upcoming Beware, out 3/17. The video is just him walking down the street singing, smiling, and bouncing, but looking like he does, that is pretty entertaining. Stereogum labels this song an "Americana march" pretty accurately. I don't like everything that Bonnie does, but he does a lot. I would say he has mo...

It's been two months today in the new apartment, two months living in the city, any city, for the first time, and a little over six weeks since I ended a three-year relationship. The cat, Sphinx, has been insufferably needy since there are two less warm bodies to distract her. But I suppose we both have our own brands of loss and confusion.I'm rather pathetic for letting months go by before buy...

I like how people from the past can find you on facebook and how you can search for past crushes and things like that. It is so easy to stalk when your bored or should be doing other stuff. Here is a song about finding people on facebook (it's not really, but you know, whatever). B"Prince"B knows...
