hair pinned and amh musical picks
nice sunset from the screen room last night. ran up to the master balcony and got the pic below.
hair pin legs on MHM sleeper sofa. the fit is perfect.
it's been a while since I posted on the austin mod house soundtrack.
the latest morning musical selection has been SHE & HIM. it's a collaboration between M.Ward and Zooey Deschanel. she is also an actress and did a fantastic job of portraying a meth user who likes to slam her hand in drawers in WINTER PASSING (also featured will ferrell)
anyhow, their song WHY DO YOU LET ME STAY HERE has an infectious nancy sinatra meets patsy cline vibe to it. it reminds kat of karen carpenter.
the soundtrack to restoring MHM has been dominated artists that have long playlists on my ipod; ELLIOTT SMITH, SWELL and TEENAGE FANCLUB
other notable additions to the AMH musical collection include the latest efforts by Jonathan Richman (I couldn't find any clips from his new album so I linked an old modern lovers song here, shows a vintage airstream in the first seconds so I felt it was almost on topic)
funny, over at austin treehouse ole dad always says, "it's the something about mary guy". I think of that movie as "the one with jonathan richman in it"
with great surprise I found the silver jews do have their new song posted to youtube... well, song but no video, actually it looks like somebody has uploaded the entire album, here is party barge (reminds me of my friend big john). and because you can find anything you never even thought of on youtube, here is somebody doing a belly dance to RANDOM RULES by Silver Jews. HOLY SMOKES! I just checked their website and they are gonna be here in austin! as much as the sound at emo's sucks, I will be there (sept 19th). you coming? I've been waiting YEARS for a chance to see them.
