Placebo's new album drops 9 June 2009. Around that same time (in one way or another), a lot of people that have been dragging down at least half of the A&P staff will vanish into obscurity. From what I've heard of the album (which we've so gently touched on), it appears frontman Brian Molko has been in the same boat as us. Let us take his constructivism to heart. Summer anthems aplenty here, peoples.

There was this really bizarre time in Alpha's life (we call it junior high school), when he and his mother sat down together, quite purposefully, to watch the world premiere of this video. It was funny for a number of reasons, but most of all, because it aired (MTV was quite adamant about the event in its advertising) after the latest season finale of Daria. I know all of this because two VHS recordings of that entire day on MTV still rest safely on a shelf right next to me.
In any event, Madonna did one of her last 'greatest things,' and Mama Alpha looked at lil' cherubic Alpha and said, "Oh, that's clever, because the song kinda fits Daria."
She paused and then said quite loudly (though still under her breath), "Goodness, you're both so much alike...".
A millions years later, Pillow and Alpha dragged Able back to Memphis during an especially long December; we entered her family estate, and she played this song right quick. I said "good call," and had a moment. We all did.
You have to wonder...

Just a little fun-times to raise team morale... Unfortunately, no one wants us to have a good time (especially the devil's new favorite website, YouTube) so I have to link it... Great muppety Odin, how I wish it was displayed prominently on the site... cuz this is my favorite song, I sing along when the DJ throws it on...

Eh, somebody I'm friends with on the dreaded MySpace added this song on their profile...that's not so important. What is important is that it reminded me that this is my mom's 2nd or 3rd favorite GNR song ever...
Somewhere in 1991, there's a little boy riding to catholic school in a Mazda 626 with this song blasting, quietly wondering what will become of him...
