The Days of the Week theme is still going strong. Lotsa lotsa crappy mawkish Saturday songs out there, though. What is it about Saturday that makes people want to write sensitive ballads, strumming along on an acoustic, or plinkety-plinking the tinkling ivories? Or generic I-IV-V rockers about partying all night? Are those really the majorities choice?

Ugh.

That I’m trying to find (for the most part) music that’s both new to me and entertaining is making the selection process that much more… challenging, yeah, that’s it. Challenging.

So this is the Eels’ Saturday Morning, one of those songs whose video becomes inextricably intertwined with the music in the ol’ cabesa, where the combination of the two make it into a wholer thing, if that makes any sense. Plus, the distortion (or overdrive, or whatever) on the harp is way tasty.

And to top it all off, there’s zombies, and nothing says Saturday to me quite like zombies.

Bon apetit! Heh.
