Disco Infiltrator

I guess this would be what was previously called "Your Stuck in My Head Song of The Day" but that was really something that took on a life of its won and became way too confining to me so instead this is just a song that has been kicking around in my mind for the past couple of days that I hope to exorcise through this.
It's LCD Soundsystem's Disco Infilitrator, a song who's title I've developed a habit of mistakenly calling "Disco Penetrator" (which opens up a whole new world of possibilities.) Plus the chorus" bear in mind we all fall behind, from time to time" is really something I need to bear in mind, at times

But all i know, is all i know
is the disco infiltrator fo sho
but all i see, is all i see
but still you want it owwww
stop, you cant believe, what you believe
or the disco infiltrator will leave
oh stupid me, oh stupid me
but still we want it owwww
stop, we cant shake the waist
stop, you've got to shake the waist
stop, what you've been told, is what your told
is the disco infiltrator gone cold
oh stupid you, i bet' told the truth
but you dont want it no!
stop, you make me frown your little town
you run the disco infiltrator on down
oh stupid you, oh stupid me
and we deserve it owwwwww
stop, you can shake the waist
stop, you've got to shake the waist

Bear in mind, we all fall behind, from time to time
Bear in mind, we all fall behind, from time to time

But all i know, is all i know
is the disco infiltrator fo sho
but all i see, is all i see
but still you want it owwww
stop, you cant believe, what you believe
or the disco infiltrator will leave
oh stupid me, oh stupid me
but still we want it owwww
stop, you cant shake ya waist
stop, you've got to shake ya waist
stop, you cant shake ya waist
stop, you've got to shake ya waist

Bear in mind, we all fall behind, from time to time
Bear in mind, we all fall behind, from time to time
Bear in mind, we all fall behind, from time to time
Bear in mind, we all fall behind, from time to time
Bear in mind, we all fall behind, from time to time
Bear in mind, we all fall behind, from time to time

Your Simply Amazing Stuck in My Head Song of the Day

Ok I need to finish this really quickly so I can peace. Anyway I decided today when I was in my kitchen cooking and having a dance party with my dogs (aka me dancing around while they stared confused at me) that if I were to ever start stripping that Paul Weller's I Walk on Gilded Splinters is totally my moneymaking song. And so that is your stuck in my head song of the day. I've always thought the song was a great strutting and walking song but I never realized how damn sexy that groove and bass line is. I can't help but feel hot and sexy and like a badass when I hear it. Here's a live version


Anyway I'm off Monday so you guys enjoy your three day weekend. As for now I'm dressed to go shake my ass. I think I will.

ciao tutti. stay in touch but more importantly stay safe out there.

Best Band Ever*

*according to me, at this moment, subject to change without notice.

This week the Best Band Ever is Jamiroquai. It's the summer, the sun is up and the days are long, which makes it perfect for danicng hours away. That was the kind of mood I was in when I woke up this morning and Jamiroquai perfectly captured the mood for me with that kind of electric funk and r&b mix. Such a groove. You can't help but get up and move. They first came ,in 1996, to America's attention with Virtual Insanity, an amazing video that basically swept that coveted and esteemed MTV Video Awards (though I did care much more about them then-I was 13)

It still holds up pretty well, though his hat schtick really doesn't. And though I didn't understand it at the time, the lyrics sort of predicted a scientific world that we are now in and venturing further into, with cloning and stem cells. Somewhat prescient (and tinged with conservatism and a return to traditional values it seems.) I didn't listen to them for a few years while I was in my pretty heavy rap phase, but then I rediscovered my brother's cd Travelling Without Moving and just got back into the groove (you can dance!) Being in my sort of stellar space funk state, which I sort of go in and out of, I really started to like their song Cosmic Girl (thats how I like to think of myself, infamously of course)

(It should be noted that I'm pretty sure this is the video that inspired Canibus' line "My hand is quicker than the eye/Quicker than the 5 speed Jamiroquai drives" from his song 100 Bars) I then read on the internet how some British kid who killed himself and filmed it live on the internet had played Deeper Underground as his last song, and being the morbid one I am, I immediately found the song online. It's from the Godzilla soundtrack, which was an amazing soundtrack for such a horrible movie.

From Deeper Underground I then found out about their Synkronized album, which I didn't like as much but it had the song King for a Day, which I liked a lot. It was more theatric and operatic and reeking of melancholy, and maybe I am kind of a prima donna in that regard (plus he had gotten rid of the hat by then, thank god.)

The last time I heard from them was from the dance scene in Napoleon Dynamite. The song Canned Heat, and how many of us when hearing the song dance, even if it is as goofily as Napoleon Dynamite (and this was so the song I had stuck in my head this morning)


For all these reasons, and the fact that I'm a dancing queen right now, Jamiroquai is the Best Band Ever. I hope I brightened and funked up your day :)
