This edition of Song of the Day is inspired from Rodney Bingenheimer yet again. I recommend to everyone to listen to his show. It's midnight to 3am Monday nights. Its wonderful. Anyway, the band for this issue is called Yuck and the song is called "Get Away". The one thing about this song that always gets me addicted is the guitar. And if you have read the other posts, you know I dont like guitar on a lot of songs. I will let this song speak for itself. Enjoy!!!
Break it down and then break it up again
Me and my guitar drowning down and down
Not even the pain kicks in
Tell me when the pain kicks in
Oh I can't get away
Panoramic view, that's one thing I won't do
No shouted abuse from the corner of my mind
Not even the pain kicks in
Tell me when the pain kicks in
Oh I can't get away
Summer sun says get out more, I need you
I want you but I can't get this feeling off my mind
I want you, I need you
I can't get away
Summer sun says get out more, I need you
I want you but I can't get this feeling off my mind
I want you, I need you

Song of the Day 72!!!
I'm starting to slack in my postings! Shame on me. Anyway, I was thinking what I should put for this edition and thought to myself that it should be something I have liked for a really long time. Today's song I have liked since I was 3. My parents were/are pretty awesome. Especially when it came to music. I grew up with the classics like The Beatles, Jethro Tull, and Queen from my dad and I got the modern (for the late 80's early 90's) goodies from my mom like INXS, George Harrison's later stuff, and this band, They Might Be Giants. Oh my god, when my mom played any of their albums, everyone in my family would sing along. The first TMBG album I remember was 1990's Flood, which included today's song: "Birdhouse In Your Soul". The song is weird, yet catchy, and the video is exactly the same. So, let me send you back to 1990 and enjoy!!!
P.S. I highly recommend their learning albums for children. (hint: they are awesome even for adults)
Im your only friend
Im not your only friend
But Im a little glowing friend
But really Im not actually your friend
But I am
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say Im the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
I have a secret to tell
From my electrical well
Its a simple message and Im leaving out the whistles and bells
So the room must listen to me
Filibuster vigilantly
My name is blue canary one note spelled l-i-t-e
My storys infinite
Like the longines symphonette it doesnt't rest
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say Im the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Im your only friend
Im not your only friend
But Im a little glowing friend
But really Im not actually your friend
But I am
There's a picture opposite me
Of my primitive ancestry
Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free
Though I respect that a lot
Id be fired if that were my job
After killing jason off and countless screaming argonauts
Bluebird of friendliness
Like guardian angels it's always near
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say Im the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
(and while you're at it
Keep the nightlight on inside the
Birdhouse in your soul)
