My Son - 9 year old Piano Prodigy!

You know they laughed at me online when I referred to him as a "prodigy" in the past...

But he's certainly narrowed the gap because him and actual prodigies, don't ya think?

If you are lazy, just watch from the 4 minute mark on.

NOTE - he's only been playing the piano for 2.5 years!

Peaking Too Soon!

Check this out, Carrie Underwood singing with that *government school* 5th grade choir from Staten Island (NY):

I don't care what any of y'all say....Carrie is freakin' HOT, off-the-chart HOT.

That little dude who got to sing with her didn't even get a hug???

He could have, and should have(!), moved in for a smooch. I myself would have and perhaps even planted it on her lips!

Still it's pretty cool to get to sing with her like that.

Though in all likelihood the poor kid has hit the apex of his life at the ripe old age of 11!

This happens a lot in life too.  Think Al Bundy, Biff Loman, and most of the high school jocks you grew up with.

Wedding Homophilia

Just have to admire the work the *boys* put in on this one:

BUT....was it a prom or something? They looked pretty young, at least to this incipient 'old coot's' eyes.

I enjoyed watching it nonetheless.

Remember, just because 1/32 of the music I listen to is of the Justin Bieber variety, that doesn't make me an invert, androgynous, transgendered, or vaginal in any way shape or form!

The Neo-Barter Society

While there have been fits and starts over the past 2 years....unfortunately we really haven't been able to *do piano* with the kids like we have wanted.

BUT NOW, I've struck up a deal with a local teacher.

He will teach my kids piano....and I'm going to help his daughters with math!

The guy can play too - check him out. He's a former concert pianist.

Precocious Headbangers

I'm not a thinking-about-killing-myself headbanger in the slightest....but I prefer this one:

I wonder if they sing/play "I Used To Love Her"????

They Already Have Marketable Skills....And May Be Set For Life

Ignore the pathetic clown, Letterman:



Don't neglect their studies, their school?

You see, Dave, they are homeschooled!

Check out their album - America's Music.

Sunday Cartoon

Some of you might be into this - music and animation similar to Pink Floyd's The Wall:

Born Under A Full Moon?

So someone on FaceBook posts:

‎1) Find the #1 song from the week you were born.
2) Find the song on youtube.
3) Post it without shame.

Now I'm sure it's partially a ruse to see how many Morons will post their precise birth-date online, right next to their real name for purposes of identity theft, password hacking or other *foul play*...

Anyways, that is the beyond-ridiculous #1 song that was blaring on the wireless, NATIONWIDE the day I popped out of my mother's vagina.

Google - Setting Its Sights On iTunes

I'm always rooting against Apple - much like I'm always rooting against the Red Sox.

While neutral on the products, I just don't care for the rabid fans!

And this reminds me...

One of these days I'm going to have to figure out a way to listen to music and whatnot in my car in a more modern way, i.e. NOT through the AM/FM car stereo.

I just can't bring myself to BUY an iPod and then BUY a thousand dollars worth of music.

Then I have to *manage* it: physically bring it with me, hide it in the car, sync devices, etc. Heck I'd probably get another $180 ticket from a cop for a *hands free violation* messing around with it.

I need a computer embedded in my car, with access to my stuff. Google obviously is positioning itself for such a future world.

Turning Off The Radio Now

"Dad, what's alien sex?"

Yeah, that's what my daughter asked me from the backseat of the car a few months ago.

Here are some of the lyrics:

Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial

Your so supersonic
Wanna feel your powers
Stun me with your lasers
Your kiss is cosmic
Every move is magic

Your from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go
Lead me into the light

Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison

Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction

Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial

[Kanye West]
I know a bar out in Mars
Where they driving spaceships instead of cars
Cop a Prada spacesuit about the stars
Getting stupid ass straight out the jar
Pockets on Shrek, Rockets on deck
Tell me what's next, alien sex
I'ma disrobe you, than I'mma probe you
See I abducted you, so I tell ya what to do
I tell ya what to do, what to do, what to do

[Katy Perry]
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison

Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction

Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial

There's no doubt that skanky broad - Katy Perry - can sing and perform...

But her *content* is a little over-the-top, don't ya think?

I mean she explicitly tells young girls to put on skin-tight jeans, let boys touch them, and to *go all the way*. Freakin' five year-old girls listen to Katy Perry!

In some screwed up way it'd be pure justice one day for Katy to catch her 11 year old daughter servicing some dude...

Of course it's all trash on the radio these days - so I've just about removed it completely from our family car riding.

Classical music elicits complaints (plus it puts me to sleep at the wheel!) so pretty much all we listen to is a lone Christian music radio station. Though generally I keep it low and the kids do their *work* in the backseat. For all intents and purposes those car-seats are their DESKS.

I do wish I could figure out a better system for listening to audio books in the car.

They come in too many disks; we'll stop in-between tracks; and then my kids want to listen to the rest in the house. It quite frankly is a real pain in the butt moving disks back and forth. It's a shame I can't download reasonably-priced audio books straight to the AM/FM car stereo!

And I Thought My Parents' Nostalgia Was Cheesy!

The OUTfits in beginning are classic. How about that ginormous yellow leather top?!

Aging 'Old Coot' Rock Star?

Шикарное соло

Stoopid Yet Talented?

I first heard of that group yesterday . The guy next to me the bar said he had just erroneously referred to them as *Somewhat Stupid* in a text message to his teenage daughter and was summarily ridiculed.

He said they were a *white reggae* band. I didn't hear anything that I would say fits in that category. But they don't sound bad, at all.

Of course a band with that moniker would have over a minute of black nothing on its YouTube video.

And I'm just going to guess that's a Kfell kinda group...

This Guy...

...probably gets a lot of broads, don't ya think?

Talented as (bleep) though...

Cool Piano Tunes

I hadn't heard this one before coming across it playing in the background of someones' blog the other day:

Here's another good one from Yiruma:

Pink - One Of Our Best Bards?

Alright, this song has a groovy beat and makes for an interesting video (notwithstanding the necking inverts):



But, oh my gosh, are the written lyrics STUPID:

Pink - Raise Your Glass Lyrics

Right right, turn off the lights,
we’re gonna lose our minds tonight,
what’s the dealio?

I love when it’s all too much,
5am turn the radio up
where’s the rock and roll?

Party Crasher,
Penny Snatcher,
Call me up if you want gangsta
Don’t be fancy, just get dancey
Why so serious?

So raise your glass if you are wrong,
in all the right ways,
all my underdogs,
we will never be never be anything but loud
and nitty gritty dirty little freaks
won’t you come on and come on and raise your glass,
just come on and come on and raise your glass

Slam slam, oh hot damn
what part of party don’t you understand,
wish you’d just freak out (freak out already)
can’t stop, coming in hot,
I should be locked up right on the spot
it’s so on right now (so f*ckin on right now)

Party Crasher,
Penny Snatcher,
Call me up if you want gangsta
Don’t be fancy, just get dancey
Why so serious?

So raise your glass if you are wrong,
in all the right ways,
all my underdogs,
we will never be never be anything but loud
and nitty gritty dirty little freaks
won’t you come on and come on and raise your glass,
just come on and come on and raise your glass
won’t you come on and come on and raise your glass,
just come on and come on and raise your glass

(oh sh*t my glass is empty, that sucks)

So if you’re too school for cool,
and you’re treated like a fool,
you can choose to let it go
we can always, we can always,
party on our own

(so raise your) So raise your glass if you are wrong,
in all the right ways,
all my underdogs,
we will never be never be anything but loud
and nitty gritty, dirty little freaks
So raise your glass if you are wrong,
in all the right ways,
all my underdogs,
we will never be never be anything but loud
and nitty gritty, dirty little freaks
won’t you come on and come on and raise your glass,
just come on and come on and raise your glass
won’t you come on and come on and raise your glass,(for me)
just come on and come on and raise your glass (for me)

I told you the words were S T U P I D!

And I don't know that Pink fans actually even drink out of *glasses* - or are old enough to be toasting *adult beverages* in the first place.

This illiterate whore is just a terrific icon for immature humans...

Eminem - A Class Act!

Who knew?

What a wholesome role model!

I nominate him for 'Father of the Year'...

Not for nuthin, but two teenage girls drove by me yesterday with rap music blasting.

All I heard was the expression *hard d1ck* a couple of times. I don't think it was Eminem, but then again I'm no rap expert.

Now this is rich:

History Repeats, Rhymes, and Has A Beat!

I have to admit that in the 20 years of hearing this tune, this *pictorial* version informed me of my ignorance. There were just a whole lot of references that were either lost on me, or I didn't discern. Enjoy and test your own knowledge level:



A young student of American history could do worse than a little research/Googling on each of the bullet points in that song, no?

Billy Joel fans can see my prior post, and enjoy the video I shot.

The Ambisexual Romance Turn-Off

Here's the chorus from the extra-inverted singer's latest song:

But if I had you, that would be the only thing I'd ever need

Yeah if I had you, then money fame and fortune never could compete

If I had you, life would be a party it'd be ecstasy

Yeah, if I had you

You-y-y-y-y-you

You-y-y-y-y-you

You-y-y-y-y-you

If I had you

I don't about y'all....but I can't listen to that song when it comes on the AM/FM radio. And I definitely don't want my kids humming along to it either.

It's bad enough that popular music has glorified *unrealistic romance* to the point where young Morons are so deluded as to what their future spouse will be....that they all but squander their lives in search thereof.

But now we have to bear that crap sung by an unapologetic Tinkerbell in Adam Lambert?  Is this really *marketable imagery?

I'll pass, thank you.  And I sincerely doubt I'm the only one whose stomach turns, and then radio dial turns upon hearing his voice.
