In addition to video game inspired synth riffs, The Megas are known for their silly red hats and outlandish stolen election conspiracy theories. Wait, no.... I'm thinking of the Magas.
With the song choice, you may think that the band name is a combination of "slo" and "thrust," but, no. It's a compound made up of the seldom joined root words "sloth" and "rust."
She's always had an affinity for the dynamic 1970 soft rock song "Cracklin' Rosie" by Neil Diamond, which is also in my top twelve or so songs that's presumably about hookers.
Here's obscure as all hell London, UK folk band Wychwood with their countrified take on the classic.
For another cover of Diamond, UB40's version of "Holly Holy" can be found here.
For a cover by Neil Diamond, his version of "Monday. Monday" can be found here.
I aimed to find out by reading a report on reptile cardiology. Unfortunately, I have no answer for you, because I found something better to do than read said article.... which was, quite literally, anything else.
No matter how many times I hear this song while driving, I'm forever glancing over my shoulder looking for emergency vehicles. Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me 6,273 times, shame on me still.
For another Bonnie Tyler cover, Hurra Torpedo's version of "Total Eclipse of the Heart" can be found here.
While your primary focus while watching the video will be on the lead singer's haircut, check out the secondary guitarist. He very well may be the bastard offspring of Jack Black and the Berries and Cream dude from that Starburst commercial.
For another Temptations cover, The Jesus and Mary Chain's version of "My Girl" can be found here.
There's the age old nature vs. nurture debate, and Jamie is sometimes a case study for the nature side.
Case in point -- a couple of years ago, she posted pictures of an event that she attended, with a giant "MW" across the stage shown from an aerial camera.
I thought, initially and completely rationally, that maybe it was a convention of dictionary enthusiasts, partying when that new Merriam-Webster drops.
I looked up city events, and found that she had actually seen Morgan Wallen, a country singer from the raging metropolis of Sneedville, Tennessee.
I'm assuming that Jamie paid money in exchange for a ticket to this event, where, if I were offered thirty thousand dollars to attend, I'd have to weigh the pros and cons. Not having student loans would be nice and all, but.... sheesh.
She marches to her own drum, and, more oft than not, that drum is accompanying some C&W.
Here's a cover of one of Wallen's more radio-friendly hits, this year's release "Last Night," as covered by Nashville, Tennessee transplant Carah.
Maybe you don't feel that the 1982 synth pop single "Valerie" from Birmingham, UK blue eyed soul artist Steve Winwood slaps so friggin' hard.
You're wrong. It absolutely does.
Found a cover that does this one justice. Syracuse, New York baroque pop band Ra Ra Riot keep the upbeat synths intact, and throw in a violin for good measure.
In the video, you can clearly see the guitarist's breath as he sings. According to this article, breath usually isn't visible until the air temperature hits 45 degrees Fahrenheit (roughly 7 degrees Celsius).
While his mother was telling him not to hear Danzig's words, what they mean, what they say, she should have also persuaded him to wear a duffle coat.
