Today was C6's "sneak peek" into his new classroom, where he got to meet his new teachers. On the drive over to school, he chose this as his "get psyched" song. Buzzcocks, Everybody's Happy Nowadays. Enjoy!

C6 and I caught a bit of Sesame Street this morning. We turned it on in the middle of this bit and of course when I saw a lemon wearing glasses knew it had to be Liz Lemon! HAHRHHARH!!!!
Tinted Windows:
Taylor Hanson, James Iha, Adam Schlesinger and...Bun E. Carlos!
Luv! Them!
Our latest dig is right here, Gene Kelly tap dancing in An American In Paris. Luvving it!
Hey, maybe this is the year I'll finally get those tap shoes I request annually for my birthday ... (or the trombone ... or the Mariachi band ... or ...!!!)
Somehow I had forgotten how much I love Elbow. Ahhhhhhhhhh. I particularly love "Newborn", especially the second half of the song. For some reason, the video (below) cuts out at that point but audio continues. Listen all the way through!
And now, I do believe I've got to catch up and get their album "The Seldom Seen Kid".
Happy Superbowl Sunday or whatever!
I read about Theresa Andersson in BUST magazine and was fascinated by her approach to music. Look here:
Have a listen to more of her gorgeous music at her myspace page. LOVE! HER!
A quick investigation found that Brian O'Brian is a series of these shorts, and the main character is actor Brian Stepanek, who is also in Disney's Suite Life of Zack and Cody. The series is made without spoken words in order to show it in non-English speaking countries without having to redo the dialog. Brian O'Brian has been compared to Mr. Bean. I can see that - and I think C6 would enjoy some of Mr. Bean's antics as well. (BTW, who knew there was a Mr. Bean animated series? I didn't!)
The day after discovering Brian O'Brian, C6 was EXTREMELY excited when we stumbled across the same episode embedded in a Handy Manny show we had DVR'd. He INSISTED C5 watch it too - he had excitedly told him ALL about it the day we had seen it. There are a couple of Brian O'Brian episodes on YouTube but, alas, not the one that had elicited such belly laughs from C6.
I like his suspenders!
