Favorite Recordings of 2005?

I'd rather have a pineapple violently inserted into my rectum.

Ouch! SAY NO MORE!

I don't ever remember going this far into a new year having heard so few "new" albums. But aside from Aimee Mann's album, I haven't gotten any 2005 albums... until last week. So I can hardly call this cut (below) one of the "best" things from '05... heck it's only the second thing I've heard so far! But it's a simple little number, worth a listen because of Mr Belew's tasty tweenings. A good summer song... simple, but the kind that holds up for multiple listenings. Then again, my tastes are peculiar.

This cut actually reminded me of Mary when I heard it, so it's kinda ironic she would pop outta the aether right now. The lyric is topical, and vaguely political, but they (tastefully) leave any (overt) meanings up in the air (open for multiple musings) for the listener. (the CD "is dedicated to all of the brave soldiers who risk their own lives to protect ours"). The guitar & vocals here are by Adrian Belew, although it's not his work. (my mystery cut) Since I rarely visit or post anymore, I figured I'd make up for it with some actual music. Dedicated to you & yours Mary... good to hear all is well!

1,2,3,4... this is rock'n roll (right click & save... it's 6M, so dial-uppers... ferget it; sorry)
