Out of the cradle endlessly rocking. A series of wandering thoughts on music and narrative. Wednesday, June 30, 2010. 6/30/10 - Songs of the Summer, #17-18, "Heartbreak Hotel" and "Teddy Bear". Http:/ www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/the-songs-of-the-summer-1940-2010. Top Song of 1956: "Heartbreak Hotel" by Elvis Presley. This was delivered in what can only be termed Charming Southern Lawyer accent, and it killed. I understand a little more now some of what must have driven that kind of reaction. Top Song of 1956...

Out of the cradle endlessly rocking. A series of wandering thoughts on music and narrative. Monday, September 28, 2009. 9/29/09 - Infinite Jest, page 700 - fin. Wow Am I glad to be done with Infinite Jest. HUGE SPOILER HERE:http:/ www.aaronsw.com/weblog/ijend. Somehow, the thought that Orin is responsible for the dissemation of the master copy of IJ makes his final appearance in the book easier to take - ending up in the position of Winston from 1984. Is a pretty brutal way to go out. 2 Jerry Cantrell wr...

Out of the cradle endlessly rocking. A series of wandering thoughts on music and narrative. Thursday, August 19, 2010. 8/19/10 - Songs of the Summer, #48-49: "Dirty Diana" and "Right Here Waiting". Top Song of 1988: "Dirty Diana" by Michael Jackson. You can see the Smeagol-to-Gollum transition just by tracking the evolution of Jackson from his early hitmaking days on through the hits and into the wheel-spinning '90s and '00s. All fresh-faced and innocent to start, Jackson put out a throat-clearing di...

Out of the cradle endlessly rocking. A series of wandering thoughts on music and narrative. Sunday, November 14, 2010. 1/11/11 - Songs of the summer, #52-53: "Baby Got Back" and "That's The Way Love Goes". Well, that's a long time between entries, and now it's not summer anymore (hello 2011), so this project is now summer songs during the wintertime. But that's what happens when there's a wedding to plan and a honeymoon to go on. Wouldn't trade it for the world. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my comple...
