Here’s a little music for you to enjoy…first up is “American Idiot” by Green Day:

On a related sidenote, the two greatest concerts I’ve ever been to were the Green Day concerts in Madison and St. Paul as part of their American Idiot tour. There are quite a few bands who aren’t nearly as good live as they are on the radio, but Green Day is, in my opinion, far superior live.

Next up is “She Don’t Use Jelly” by the Flaming Lips:

That’s all for today; enjoy!

Happy New Year! Here’s some music to help you welcome in 2009.

Next up is a little country. Here’s “Live Like You Were Dying” courtesy of Tim McGraw:

“Shattered” by O.A.R.

First up is Robin Thicke’s “Lost Without U:”

Next up is “My Hero” by the Foo Fighters:

And finally a little more from the Foo Fighters. Here’s “The Pretender:”

Now I grew up during the “grunge” phase of rock, and thus I listened to my fair share of Nirvana and Pearl Jam, and at the risk of upsetting the rock gods, I’m inclined to believe Kurt Cobain was not the most talented member of Nirvana; that honor belongs to Dave Grohl - at least in my humble opinion.

…so here’s some Johnny Cash. First up is Cash’s version of “Hurt,” originally done by Nine Inch Nails:

And next is “God’s Gonna Cut You Down:”

Finally, some classic Cash:

…because I think this song is Hot with a capital H:
