Doing and Wanting

“If you want me to buy all ten songs, make all ten songs good. You can’t make an album with 3 singles, 2 deep cuts, and 5 filler tracks, then bitch about iTunes and the “death of the album”.”

To that point, Simon also says this: “When I make an album I’m thinking about the presentation and arc of the album, one song going into another, the sequencing and making sure all songs are as good as all. I don’t want to make two songs that are really good and then the rest just be fillers. I want to make a great album, and one that flows and has an arc. I want to say things within this 40-minute structure.”

And that’s all well and good, and I see and admire his point… problem is, wanting to make that album and actually making that album are two very different things.

If your intention is to make a perfectly sequenced, nuanced work of art, but I only like 3 of the songs… would you rather I buy those three songs, or buy the album and feel ripped off?

I still kind of hate itunes culture.

Also, I started watching that video and all of a sudden I wanted to change long distance providers and buy a bunch of tampons.
But whatever. Good luck to whoever the hell you are.

Me too!

Belle & Sebastian - “If She Wants Me”

For those who have been following my blog from the beginning, you’ve probably realized that I have a stiffy for Belle & Sebastian. I decided to share that love with Tuneage.

This song, off of their 2003 release, Dear Catastrophe Waitress is one of those songs that just flows perfectly. I like my music how I like my coffee… light and sweet. Ok that was really lame, but you get the idea. Belle & Sebastian have the great ability to keep simple songs sounding interesting. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten sick of listening to this song. Anyway, I think its a great listen for a lazy day or a train ride… or if you’ve been having ‘one of those days’ and need to listen to something that will chill you out without making you fall asleep. Enjoy!

Tinkerbell Makeover

Disney’s Tinkerbell has undergone an extreme makeover for her new straight-to-DVD feature. The petite fairy is ditching the skimpy green frock she’s been rocking since 1953 in favor of something with a bit more fabric.




I like the old much better. Bring back the cute tinkerbell with the round butt and sexy leotard.
