Hunky Pet Owners Offer A Slow Jam For All The Dog Dads Out There

صورة
"Looking in each other's eyes while we go number two Every moment's special when I spend it with you" From: NewNowNext  Father’s Day is this Sunday, and while many of us may not have children of our own, it is still the perfect time to celebrate all the dog daddies of the world. BarkBox leaned into this idea by creating a music video featuring four guys dedicating a smooth slow jam to the special canines in their lives. “Dog Dad Love Song” contains a plethora of pet puns and relatable lyrics, including “You take up the whole bed and I just get the small part/But it’s cool because you take the blame for all of my farts.” Get ready to groove to the new holiday track and then send it to all the special pet parents in your life.

Song of the Day: 'You Can't Always Get What You Want' by Ituana

APRIL 10, 2017 From: kenneth in the (212) Spoiler-Adjacent Material Ahead After the internet exploded over the finale of "Big Little Lies," Damian decided to jump on the post-hype bandwagon. We both enjoyed it -- I've heard enough stories from my sister about the bitchiness and in-fighting among moms to know they nailed this good, and Reese Witherspoon's character was like Tracy Flick all grown up, which is to say perfect! -- but at the risk of being total sticks in the mud, Damian immediately figured out Plot Twist One and I figured out Plot Twist Two. (Was it really that hard to figure out the bad guy was the bad guy?) The music was a bit shoe-horned in -- and no kids in the history of the world have ever acted like these with their precocious love of Otis Redding, Janis Joplin and Jefferson Airplane -- but we both thought it was really well done. This one's a fun cover I had never heard before ...

February 3, 2017 From: kennenth in the (212)  Does anyone have a digital copy of the Philip Oakey/Giorgio Moroder album? I only know the singles and am wondering if I'm missing out.

Song of the Day: 'Fun' by Blondie

 FEBRUARY 02, 2017 From: kenneth in the (212) I 'm Blondie's biggest fan who also dreads when they release new material. ("Panic of Girls" had its moments, but "Ghosts of Download" convinced me my cynicism was warranted. Can't they just rest on their laurels?!) Nonetheless, Debbie and Chris are hellbent on recording new material, so "Pollinator" was released last May. For whatever reason, the band  released an audio video for "Fun" -- is three months the normal lead time now? -- which you can judge for yourself here.

JANUARY 18, 2017 From: kenneth in the (212) This typewritten Blondie fact sheet popped up on Facebook over the weekend, complete with Chris Stein weighing in on what became of some of the originals listed here. After marveling at how adorable it was -- they played at Kenny's Castaways! -- I was further charmed by this adorable version of "Heatwave," recorded in 1975 at CBGB's!

January 9, 2017 From: kenneth in the (212) Thought a lot about David Bowie yesterday, on what would have been his 70th birthday. Here's my somewhat unlikely favorite song of his, from the little-seen film of the same name.

Song of the Day: 'Foolish Beat' by Debbie Gibson

صورة
DECEMBER 28, 2016 From: kenneth in the (212) Not unlike Sheena Easton, a friend tells me Debbie Gibson shies away from her own material while performing live, opting instead to cover show tunes and classics. Why either of them would do this -- especially when you wrote as many good songs as Debbie did during her electric youth -- is entirely beyond me. "Foolish Beat" was the fifth(!) single off her debut album, "Out of the Blue," and the only one to top the charts.
