Another find today...

Sort of a Lou Reed-esque "Last Chance on the Stairway", which is a pretty great concept. I see Chekhov's Wig in the description, and believe this to be a band member. Brilliant.

Warhol Art of the Day.

Check out my red hot new Blogger gadget. Just slap my face and call me Veronica Web 2.0! I know...it's sort of annoying being ABOVE the actual Duran video, but I didn't want to stick it at the bottom where you'd have to scroll to see it. So there. I annoy you because I love you.

Hot off the presses...

...it's the "Nightrunner" video!



The library will never be the same.

Here you go, my Pretties.

Thank you, Teknosapian, for being the only bright light in my darkened corner of existence. Ok, maybe not so much. But I am reminded why living in B.F.E. is so completely inconvenient by the fact that I still have NOT gotten my Rio - Classic Albums DVD, because I naively assumed I would simply be able to go out and BUY the damned thing. Nooooooo. No store in my 20 mile radius is stocking it. So order online I will, but I will still be pissy about it.

I will try to dance this pain away.

Back to our Ordinary World or something.

Guess who did NOT go get her Classic Albums DVD yet. What a poser! Apparently when you're an 'adult' you spend the release day voting and doing your job, and run out of time. What's that all about?

So, while I was reciting the joys of the Pythagorean Thereom for teens and English as a Second Language students, the rest of you were probably learning all about the reverb on the backing vocal track of "Last Chance on the Stairway". Don't spoil it for me!

Oh, and apparently JT was Baracking his vote (or wearing a t-shirt).



For McCain followers, here's something to help you get your groove on and cheer up, thanks to Aurora featuring Naimee Coleman. :::back pat::: It'll be ok.

You Knew This Was Coming...

Americans, get yourselves to the polls! But don't pull your shirt off and pray while you're there, k?

What's better than karaoke?

...LIPSYNC! Same performance style, no warbling. Good times.



Don't forget to go get your Classic Albums: Rio tomorrow! And VOTE (if you're in the USA)!!

Ok, more...

I can't help it...

"TreashAAA..in the DAARRRK..."

Happy Halloween!

Let's get this party started with a little montage from Spiraling:



And now some karaoke:



And now...? I don't know.

I really have to stop...

More "Classic Albums" footage. Turn your heads, kids, if you don't want spoilers.

Sleepthief makes "The Chauffeur" even more dreamy...

I've posted Sleepthief's "The Chauffeur" cover before, but it definitely had different footage. Here's a more customized/stylized/candy for your eyes version that I'm sure you'll all adore.



And just in case you can't tell I'm excited about this...

Classic Albums - Duran Duran - RIO !!

Do NOT watch if you don't want any sneak peeks before it's released in your country. I'm like a bad kid on Christmas morning though, so I'm gonna look...ROGER SPEAKS!

Happy birthday, Simon!

So nice, we'll sing it twice!

The Thin White Funk.

Happy Friday! Here's a little nugget via 1988, highlighting Simon's big hair and Paddington coat (and boasting about the 'non-professional' lineup), and Nick's...well... I love Nick. But this was a weird era for him. Enjoy!
