I was rather amused by this when YouTube threw it at me over the weekend. Since it still sounds pretty good after 0 beers on a normal day, here you go. If there’s a mashup artist out there as consistently good as Bill McClintock, I don’t know who it is. Music used in this mashup: …

Music Playing Kid: Caleb Hayes, Eight-Year-Old Drummer
I’m sure I’ve said it before when I’ve posted one of these but it’s probably worth saying again. If I were eight and my favourite band said to me “Steve, come on up here and play a song with us”, I’d probably have lost my shit and totally screwed it up. but I’m not Caleb …

Sultans Of Storm
Laszlo Buring gets the originality points today. “Riders on the Storm” has never been one of my favourite songs, but I quite like “Sultans of Swing”, so this works for me. Riders on the Storm, if it were written by Dire Straits. Went with a Lady Writer/Sultans of Swing kind of approach for this one, …
Slam Bam Indeed
Not exactly a Kiss This Guy moment since I know full well what Neal McCoy is saying here, but do not even try to convince me that you don’t hear “wank” every time he says “wink”. I’ve been hearing it that way since 1994.

A Lovely Version Of Silent Night
There will be no heavenly, peaceful sleeping today. Not on my watch. We must sing! This may be the best music playing kid yet.
All I Want For Christmas Is Words, Goats And A Chicken
I’ll be honest here. The last little while, I’ve been having a hell of a time with the part of my brain that comes up with thoughts and words and then turns them into blog posts. I don’t exactly know why and I doubt I ever will, but it’s happening and it’s frustrating. Perhaps the …

Use The Back Entrance
I was starting to worry that I had run out of good misheard lyrics stories, especially now that I don’t listen to a lot of music with dad anymore. But that fear, apparently, was misplaced. I have tears in my eyes right now as I hear from my brother about a conversation he had yesterday. …
Dirty Deeds Done With…Trees?
Music used in this mashup: Brenda Lee – Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree AC/DC – Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap As if you need me to say anything else.
Zombie Claus
Here we are, a week into December, and somehow I’m not totally sick of Christmas music yet. Usually the world has that taken care of by Halloween, but I suppose being laid low for a decent bit of November by all the crud going around and a Covid shot might have its advantages after all. …
