Thatā€™s some real shame inducing stuff, right there.

#88

no shame.

guilty pleasure!

#89

oh, but that video is god awful. wtf?

#90

Vital distinction ā€“ thanks!

Also a big muchas gracias for Big Head Todd ā€“ that one had completely gone under my radar (but not anymore).

And about Dire Straits ā€“ truly essential stuff in this thread. I play the Money for Nothing collection from time to time (for some reason I do not like ā€œTelegraph Roadā€ that much anymore, though). First I was gonna post ā€œBrothers in Armsā€ but decided to go for this smoker (awesome video too) ā€“ not hard to tell why Dylan wanted Knopfler for Infidels:

Yeah, commercials can taint a lot of great music.

And when we are on the topic of trucks, I have to admit that I have a soft spot for trucker songs.

#93

Just hit me that the Candlebox song I posted has pretty much the same theme as the Dexter Freebish song ā€¦ oh the bitterness of self-absorbed young men.

#94

Love this story from Todd Sniderā€™s book where he double-backs on back-talking Garth.

We lose our shit to this at work. All the intercoms, much banging and singing along.

#97

You GOTTA get down on Friday ā€¦. Or as we call it, Fri-YAY yo!

I had never actually heard this but was aware it was known as a truly awful song. I gave it a listen today and itā€™s way better than I thought.

I think sheā€™s kind of aware it is cheesy and corny, too. I donā€™t think sheā€™s under any impression sheā€™s the next Joni Mitchell.

I think itā€™s glorious in a silly, ridiculous way.

#99

The rest of that album is a bit shit though, isnā€™t it?

I just realized that all the songs in here would make a solid playlist.

#100

Moon Over Bourbon Street? Consider Me Gone? Shadows in the Rain? I think theyā€™re solid. Childrenā€™s Crusade and Russians are cringeworthy though.

#101

I loved that album and I hate Sting so itā€™s hard to admit.
