“M1A1″ - Gorillaz

A good song for a hazy monday. And yes, shit does start to pickup later in the song (±1:42, actually).

Sittin’ & waitin’ for business to start transacting. Dunno if this makes the waiting longer or shorter, heh.

“Los Angeles” - Frank Black

Excellent roadtrip song (what, am I going on tour soon?). Especially on the 5, through the gnarly stretches of the Grapevine.

Lived there, did that, heh.

“Mystery Train” - Elvis Presley

Listening to the train whistle outside sparked this one. No one else seems to like this song as much as I do, when talking about the King’s body of work. Not my problem, heh. I can even divorce the song from the imagery Jim Jaramusch’s movie “Mystery Train” associated with it.

This and his “Little Sister” top the favorites list for this artist. Plus, they’re fun to play & sing. Well, for me. Your listening pleasure is something else entirely, heh.
