What is this?

This blog is basically where each day I will pick a song, news story, random thought, or something else to rant about why i like / dislike it. Today I have two since I’m starting off.

Like of the day: The Kooks - Violet Hill (Cover)

First off, it starts off so much more interesting than the original. In fact, scratch that - the whole thing is better than the original. Luke (the vocalist) does his signature (or at least how I know it’s him) not-exactly-singing-to-the-correct-key singing. But I think that makes it more interesting. His voice also expresses some pain, whereas Chris Martin can’t always. There’s also a kickass violin part.

Like of the day: Obama Rick-Rolling.

Pretty self explanatory, pretty awesome.

Dislike of the day: Lennon’s Killer Gets Laid.

Pretty self explanatory, this is fucked up. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ny_crime/2008/08/10/2008-08-10_lennon_killer_gets_wife_time_in_attica.html

Dislike of the day: Turtle Attempted-Murderer Killed

Don’t get me wrong, this is absolutely hilarious. I hate snapping turtles too, one stole my shoe when I was six. But it’s still fucked up that he tried to kill it. This is sorta of a inbetween like/dislike. http://www.phillyburbs.com/pb-dyn/news/111-08022008-1571649.html

Also — sorry for not embedding the youtube links, currently I’m trying to figure out this site and it won’t let me. Hopefully I can later.
