Shaq is very good at Scrabble. One of his Scrabble words is SHAQFU. That’s fine for now, but once ShaqFu.com has completed their holy mission of cleansing the Earth of all copies of the game, no one will know what SHAQFU means. (c.f. “Scrabble With God“)

I have a strong working theory that you can fix any slow, boring song simply by mashing it together with another song that’s 20% faster.

Exhibit A:


T-Pain – Can’t Believe It vs. Paperboy – Ditty (Lethargic Original Version)

Exhibit B:


Kaela Kimura – Magic Music vs. LCD Soundsystem – Tribulations (Saccharine Original Version)

Exhibit C:



Heartsdales feat. SOUL’D OUT (Kid Whatever Pole Position Mix) (Stupefying Original Version)

I was worried that linking a song wouldn’t warrant its own blog post, but then I thought: if a great song isn’t worth a blog post, what is? Expect more songs-of-the-day in the future.


Immaculate Machine – C’mon Sea Legs

The chord progression in the chorus is entirely identical to something I can’t place right now. Any help would be appreciated.

Also, anyone reading this, please leave a comment. I’m increasingly concerned my blog only has seven-and-a-half readers: brother, mother, Christian, Cory, Adrienne, Sarasa, Joe, and sometimes Doug. I’d like to know who survived the Posting Drought of 2007.
