Christmas: Holiday/Lazy Ways
I have begun a long Christmas holiday. It is exciting and slow. It involves hurry up and wait air travel. Dinners that begin in hectic chaos and end in painful boredom. VHS rental. Daytime TV.
EXCITEMENT:
MC Miker "G" and DJ Sven - Holiday
Is this song played out? So far, everyone I've played it for has enjoyed the surprise (as opposed to rolling their eyes as if it was "Rapper's Delight"). So many amazing bits: the sampled voice keyboard line, the beat boxing, the sing along chorus. If this song had harpsichord I would probably lose my mind.
SLOW:
Marine Girls - Lazy Ways
A little cold weather at Christmas is great. However, in Victoria you have to go out of your way to get the suitable conditions. This usually means going to the beach: heat sucking pebbles, a chilly southeast wind, the frozen Olympic mountains. When bundled up appropriately this can be a very pleasant experience.

I love the Marine Girls song. It's beautiful.
Ha!
Miker G & DJ Sven, Dutch one-hit-wonders!
# 1 hits in 34 countries, they even did a tour in Iceland, of all places!
My iTunes playlist plays "Mel & Kim's "Respectable" as the next song. Need I say more!
Thanks!
