Grandma GROBAR

If Grobar were an actual word instead of an acronym, that alternate song might be fun.

About how your gramma is such as a cavewoman or a viking and how she is still kicking ass.

today, as if to mock me, the store muzak (not technically muzak) shuffled in some new songs. It was really strange.

Mostly because they played a Replacements song. It made me think I was hallucinating.

That is the one Christmas song I like. I have a soft spot for "songs that tell a basic story and I only listen to like once a year." See also: Poe - Hey Pretty and King Missal - Detachable c*ck.


No love for Alice's Restaurant?

"Alice's Restaurant" is to burn-out music the way "Titanic" is to movies:

Even if you happen to love it, you can't deny it is exhaustingly overlong.

Finally we agree on music Paul!  How do you feel about Coming Into Los Angelees?  Morocycle Song?  Hobo's Lullaby is actually a pretty great album.

I have seen him live about 6 times thanks to growing up in the state his dad grew up in, that happened to have a festival for his dad.  He never played Alice's Restaurant cause it was "about his dad, not him," but he did play Los Angelees every time.  Some say it's lame he has to change words to make them rhyme so often, I say that's the charm.

Alice's Restaurant is great, but it's a Thanksgiving song, not a Christmas song.  Duh.

Oh good lord yes.  Especially Madonna's version, where she sings like Betty Boop.  Clearly someone in her entourage should have said "Honestly, Madge, that's just annoying as hell," but no one had the sack to stand up to the lady.

Also, "All I Want For Christmas is My Two Front Teeth."  Anyone who ever liked that song is now dead, so you can stop playing it.

I heard part of that song once. My 2nd-year college roommate had a habit of putting 3 hours of music on his Winamp playlist, listening for 5 minutes, then leaving. Typically with something horrid like Metallica. Once I woke up to find him doing this with this weird story-song thing and I was all "what the hell is this and why is it waking me up?" He couldn't believe I'd never heard it before. And it just. Kept. Going. It made me want to stab him in the neck.

I haven't heard 'My two front teeth' since I sung it in primary school so  I retain a wistful appreciation of it.
