That not-Johnny-Marr guitar is making me sad. Is most basic arpeggios.

The piano chords that start at about :23 remind me of Chicago's Saturday in the Park.

Yeah, I can hear that.

I just discovered The Gaslight Anthem. (I know -- I am way out of the loop.) It's the first new ("new") band I've listened to in a number of years where I'm like, "Yeah, I'ma go ahead and buy this whole album." Yay me?

When I went to check them out I got apprehensive because the ad that preceded it was for 30 Seconds to Mars who sucks, right? Actually I don't really know because I've never actually heard them. I've been meaning to for quite a while actually because I wanted to provide context for this episode of First Dates where he quits the date before it begins because the date listens to 30 Seconds to Mars.

Update: Gaslight Anthem is okay. 30 Seconds to Mars is pretty lame.

Hey, I know that one. It shows up on the 2011 Fluxblog Survey Mix.

The other night the radio was on and tuned to the local jazz station. I normally don't listen to it because they play some really annoying shit, but before I changed it I heard this Tony Bennett duet. I didn't recognize the female vocalist and was surprised to learn it was Lady Gaga. Maybe because I'm not familiar with her work I've thought of her as a Madonna style entertainer. So basically not a great vocalist. But she sounded really good. I looked for some live performances just to confirm it, and yeah, I'm not an expert or anything, but I think she's a great vocalist.

Just me?

Here's a video from when she was still Stefani Germanotta and just sang and played the piano.

This song came up while listening to Fluxblog 2009 Survey finally for the first time and instantly recognized it. It took me a couple of minutes to realize it was the theme song to Portlandia. Pretty cool chilled out vibe.
