You there, boy on the street! What day is it?

It's Wednes- FRIDAY! It's FRIDAY! [/Dethklok]

1. I'm rocking out like the Gopher to "Any Way You Want It." Whoo and a hoo.
2. I come with music of my own (to share) namely, Let Down, a Radiohead cover by Off The Beat that is REALLY GOOD - like, it makes me very very happy. (Most Radiohead covers are not good.)
3. And also with No Surprises, a second Radiohead cover by Amanda Rogers. These covers work because they aren't trying to BE Radiohead. Which is why most of them suck. [/Simon Cowell-esque]
4. Toxic, a Britney Spears cover by Nickel Creek, hahaha! They make this song AWESOME.
5. Mr. S is back from Amsterdam and he brought me back clogs, but they're FUZZY HOUSE SHOES. And they're hilarious and soft and squishy. YAY.
6. I posted that Boarding School Fic I've been talking about last night at a weird time, so for those of you that were interested, it's right here.
7. I need to figure out how to make a fountain/water feature for my garden today, and buy a new camera to show you how gorgeous the colors are that are coming up. Eeee! SPRING.
8. Some fics of interest, as they are not getting the fb they should: ladycat777's Percy fic, and brandil's FNL threesome fic. I have a lot of fics tagged at my del.ic.ious page that I'll be getting to this weekend, as well, HURRAH.

FRIDAY! It's FRIDAY!!

I've probably already mentioned this to you, but the same radio station that does those covers also has free mp3s on their site, updated regularly. Best radio station in the world, government-funded but still plays independent music than pretty much any other station.

They also stream for all the Aussie ex-pats overseas. Oh, and you missed it this year but on Australia Day (Jan. 26), they do the Hottest 100. Biggest music vote in the world and count down the best 100 songs (local and international) for that year. Enjoy, I love turning people onto good music!

PS You might get lucky and hear the blessing/curse of skip-hop (aussie hip-hop, very hit and miss, an acquired taste for sure.)
