Youtube has everything now, so finding this video wasn’t so hard. I thought it was going to be harder.
This is the 2004’s Sexiest Woman of the Decade singing her hit, Naked. Louise writhes and stares at the camera (or the geek…) and acts like a watered down Madonna.
That’s my opinion, anyway. And that’s what this blog is about.
My opinion.
Meet Louise Redknapp. She sang once, and now she’s being hot and doing television shows.
That is all.
And if you thought you didn’t care to know who these people were, behold:
the face of Aisha Duo!
Notice, the lack of a female despite the fact the term “aisha” is an Arabic female name meaning “alive”.

Despertar
If you ever had Windows Vista, sorry. Seems there were not too many people happy with their Windows and stuck to XP like frightened, displaced rats until the larger barrel named Windows 7 floated past. If you decided to get off on the broken dresser that was Vista, you had this song on your computer and probably never knew it.
I only still have it because I have a sincere problem with deleting things.
This song sounds like if a cat burglar broke into a museum and found a weird dancing group of skeletons instead of treasure. For five minutes the burglar does nothing but dance as well. All in the 50’s.
The group Aisha Duo (an Italian jazz couple) brings you this song as well as another entitled Amanda in every copy of Windows Vista.
If you have Vista and don’t have these songs, watch out! You’re running Chinese spy-ware!
No, that’s not a self-admission (though it is true that if 16-year-old girls were cats, they would eat us). It’s a link to my friend Moga’s game of the same title.
Here’s his description:
Explore the depths of death, gender, and unhappy places in this rogue-like action game!
The link above takes you to the mediafire.com download site while this one takes you to the gaming site he has it posted on.
He originally posted it for a contest, but thanks to Greenwich Mean Time he was denied.
Ah, the mysteries of coast-to-coast relations.
To make it a true music-selection post, I do have to say the choice of music (piano with dark, ominous themes) makes the whole experience worth it.
As you play, make liberal use of the enter or ‘z’ button because you never know which staircase needs exploring or what door will lead you where.
Have fun. I am.
Al’s Band
Once upon a time…
You see, kids….
‘Weird Al’ Yankovic makes music with the people (Al’s Band) who are making music in the musical track about making music.
There we go, that wasn’t so hard.
Thank you to Ryan Bray for requesting this long, seemingly looping track be played. I’m a better worse person for hearing this.

Summer Wind
I’ve gushed about Frankie in two previous posts, so I’ll state it somewhat simply here:
Not every act in America goes off without a hitch, and the same it true for Sinatra as well. Even though he was almost iconic through the 1940’s and early 1950’s, he experienced a down-slope in the abyss of depression and melodrama that most feel when the world doesn’t like you as much as you thought they did.
Frank did a few things to pick himself back up (TV, Radio, Collaborations, Drinking) but all of the scrambling to get back to the top finally peaked in the 60’s, somewhere around the time he released the album Strangers in the Night.
Though this track has been sampled in many a film and TV score, it’s not the most famous. That title goes to the title track.
Enjoy.
Your iPod Could Kill You! (More if you click the link.)
So you listen to music while in the car and don’t die, right?
The problem is you’re inside the car. Step outside your moving vehicle and slap The Roots in your ear.
You’ve got a 33% chance of dying!
Yay!

De Rode Schoentjes (The Red Shoes)
Little is known - to me anyway - of the Dutch (I’m assuming) band Booming Support. I can’t find anything concrete just by casually surfing the net, and this song isn’t really that good to the point where I NEED to find out things about them.
What I can tell you about the song - from it’s title at least - is it may refer to the fable of a woman who gets more than she bargains for in a pair of red shoes that are so beautiful she forgets to praise God. The shoes then make her dance forever, to the point where everything is forsaken. An executioner cuts off her feet and they dance into the woods.
The woman is fitted with wooden legs and feet and she repents… heavily. Angels then see her lamentations and give her pity. She never again wears red shoes.
What. A. Horrible. Story.
I like the fact that you’re always on the edge of your seat when you’re at a circus. You’re never bored […] You’re just really engulfed in what’s going on around you. And you want to know what’s going to happen next.
Britney Spears
In this she’s referring to the album name Circus. But there are those who say the name nods to hectic madhouse her life was before the time of the album’s release.
However you paint her as, it’s clear to me at least that Britney is a force on the charts, on stage and in the public opinion. She sells.
And frankly, that’s what the music industry is all about under the big H-O-L-L-Y-W-O-O-D sign.
