Nuff o' this music stuff, let's get down to what Rock and/or Roll is all about - HAIR ! I would like to inaugurate the first chapter in the official MOG Rock n' Roll Hair Gallery.
There are so many categories to document and archive - verticalness; fros; color; length; feathers; lack of; etc. - please feel free to start your own chapter anytime the follicle feeling strikes. I'm starting out with what I know and love best: Curls. Lady Miss has a penchant for skinny U... MORE

5you might think its hysterical
but I know when you're weak
you think you're in the movies
and everything's so deep
but I think that youre wild
when you flash that fragile smile
you might think it's foolish
what you put me through
you might think I'm crazy
all i want is you... MORE

We watched Pete and Pete last night on dvd and watched an episode where little Pete found his first favorite song. This made me wonder what my first favorite song was. I'm pretty sure it was "You Might Think" by The Cars. I loved the awful, cheesy video so much. I would always be so excited every time I saw it on MTV . I associate warm weather with The Cars also. There's nothing better than riding down the road with the windows open listening to "Magic" or "Just Wh... MORE

Skinny ties abound in this 1980 video from The Cars for "Touch And Go". This isn't an obscure track by any stretch of the word, it still gets airplay on classic rock raio. But I figured I'd include it because Panorama is kind of the "lost" Cars album. Most (not all) people thought it sucked when it came out, especially after the pop genius of their debut, and the follow up, "Candy-O". I always thought the only great songs on Panorama were "Touch and Go" and the title track, "... MORE

My heart is a little sad as I'm listening to the cars, because this song is automatically associated with circuit city now. Damn commercials using the chorus of this song... it's like when I hear Iron and Wine's cover of "Such Great Heights" I think of M & Ms... why, why, why? I mean, I like M & Ms, and I don't entirely hate circuit city, but I hate I instantly associate some great songs with product... sadness.... MORE

i revisited this album today.
what an amazing and wonderful collection of songs-
all on the debut release... review from allmusic.com: The Cars' 1978 self-titled debut, issued on the Elektra label, is a genuine rock masterpiece. The band jokingly referred to the album as their "true greatest-hits album," but it's no exaggeration - all nine tracks are new wave/rock classics, still in rotation on rock radio. Whereas most bands of the late '70s embraced either punk/n... MORE

"I don't mind you coming here
And wasting all my time, time
'Cuz when you're standing oh-so near
I kinda lose my mind, yeah It's not the perfume that you wear
It's not the ribbons in your hair
I don't mind you coming here
And wasting all my time I guess you're just what I needed"
