Things noted while watching Canadian music TV all afternoon:
Two things (and only two) I like about Obie Trice: Dre's backing production on 'The Setup' (that's a really neat sound) and the fact that he uses the phrase 'damn skippy'
Whatshername from Evanessence (sp?) looks quite different when interviewed than in their videos. In fact, she looks a lot better, and she wasn't exactly hard on the eyes to begin with. All of their music except the mighty 'Bring Me To Life' is kind of crap, though.
Finally saw the video (and heard the song) for the Strokes' '12:51'. Great song, despite the wholsale lack of a chorus (but what a riff!). And the Strokes + Tron = Genius.
The video for 'Hey Ya!' is even more fun than I expected. But note that of the band members, the one that gets a name closest to Andre's real name is the geeky keyboard player. Still stylish, of course, but geeky.
On seeing the old video for Ce Ce Peniston's 'Finally' (immortalized in The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert): God, the early 90s were so retro-sixties. No wonder "Austin Powers" hit big.
Nickelback are shite.
So are Linkin Park (although, re: the poor outcast girl in their 'Numb' video: no one that cute would have been laughed at in the high school I attended. I'm just sayin')
Destiny's Child old xmas song still sucks.
Frankie Goes To Hollywood's 'Relax' is still mighty, though.
