My mission for the next 2 hours is to watch various videos on my vast collection of tapes. 🙂 I’ll chronicle it all and post it around 9.


The first one would of course be by my favorite band, Collective Soul – Listen. It’s rather odd, sped up footage, Ross wearing goggles, oddly dressed people and the band having a brick tower build around them… I miss the days when Much Music played CS all the time. *sigh*
Oh, Gel’s next. Yes, I love my Collective Soul. It’s impossible not to be jealous of Ross and Ed’s hair in all these videos though, I wish mine could look like that 😛 I think this was the first CS video I ever saw, way back in ’95…
&& – these will note tape filled with songs that I don’t care about
Ah, I really like the Killjoys’ “Today I Hate Everyone” video… has a pissed off kid driving a toy car to a birthday party. It’s great.
&&
I’d forgotten about Luscious Jackson’s “Naked Eye”.. I actually used to dig that one… I’m glad I recorded a bunch of stuff I didn’t like so much back then… just to catch a couple videos… this way I can rediscover songs + artists.
Weeping Tile! – “Can’t Get Off” Another forgotten band… I wonder what ever happened to them… Anyone know?
&&
Anime taped from tv fills up much of this tape… found Akira
&&
Prisoners of Gravity 😀 I loved that show… It was basicly a half hour show on every day on Space that had interviews with authors, artists, etc… mostly comics, horror, sci fi + fantasy
&&
Garbage – Pust It… Much actually played this band regularlyonce too…This vid has to be one of the best they did… funny + strange
&&
end tape


&&
More anime on this one… Demon City Shinjuku
&&
Tolkien special on P.o.G. 😀 Mention of Elfquest… very facinating to hear people like Charles de Lint talk about him
&&


&&
😀 Elastica – Connection. Now here is a great video and song 🙂 Yes, much even played the great Elastica in heavy rotation once. The time I taped it was when it was charting… now all that charts is really bad rap, pop and very few good rock songs. Why oh why is popular music such crap now?
&&
Rainbow Butt Monkeys – Circles… another great band… now known as Finger Eleven… You know, videos in the min-ninties were actually much more entertaining… ah, makeovers for the elderly
&&
Soul Asylem’s “Just Like Anyone”… another old favorites of mine…
&&
PUSA – Lump… one word, CHOICE! I need to look for the albums I have by those guys… goofy yet great
&&
Jann Arden – Good Mother… I miss her… I hope she’ll have a new album out soon… Do any of you listen to her? I’ll be sure to see her next time she plays nearby
&&
😀 Lisa Loeb – Do You Sleep… what’s to say about Lisa other than she kicks ass 😉 This video was the first I ever saw by her… a simple yet beautiful vid
&&
Collective Soul – The World I Know. This is my favorite vid from the self-titled CD… though Ed with a beard still seems unnatural 😉 I think it fits the song quite well
&&
Smashing Pumpkins – Bullet With Butterfly Wings… great video…nuff said
&&
Rainow Butt Monkeys – As Far As I Can Spit…

~Time to quit for now… look for more filler in the days to come 😉 ~
