I guess I’m going to ring in the new year in front of the ol’ computer.

Pop Music Bracketology 2010: Round One, Part Three
(parts one and two here) 17. Katy Perry, “Teenage Dream” vs. 48. Kris Allen, “Live Like We’re Dying” Katy Perry doesn’t have the greatest voice in the world, so having a song rely mostly on her voice is a pretty bad idea. It doesn’t help that the song is boring as hell, locked up in that thud-thud beat and all. It makes me yearn for the days of One of the Boys....
I just renamed my iPod "Lord Percival...
A bit of an aside: “mothercrunkington” is hard to say.

Bullshit. Get to bed. Asshole.

Pop Music Bracketology 2010: Round One, Part Two
The tournament continues…
(Round One, Part One is here)
9. Taio Cruz, “Dynamite” vs. 56. Ludacris feat. Nicki Minaj, “My Chick Bad” I don’t think either of these songs has much of a shot at the title. First off: “Dynamite” barely registers as a song: it’s more of an assemblage of presets. Whose idea was it to repeat the rhyming word in a...
Late-night spaghetti.
