This is kind of goofy, but I wanted to uploaded Louchie Lou and Michie One's song, "Rich Girl" (I think it is from 1994), to YouTube. I have posted this song on VOX before, but I wanted to add a video to it, and I thought the scene from the 1984 sci-fi/horror/comedy "Night of the Comet" where the girls raid the mall (since just about everyone else is dead) would be appropriate for the song. The two actresses in the movie are Catherine Mary Stewart and Kelli Maroney. Catherine Mary Stewart has been in a lot of stuff like "The Last Starfighter". I don't know as much about Kelli Maroney (she was in "Chopping Mall, though!), but I do know that she had a scene in the new HBO show, "True Blood", which I love. I didn't notice her in the scene (it was supposedly in episode 3), but IMDB listed it so I guess it's true. It said she played an envangelist so she must have been in one of the news footage scenes that they scatter throughout the TV show.

My sister and I used to watch this movie. It's definitely cheap and 80s, but it's pretty good, especially if you love all the post-apocalyptic themed movies like I do (think "Resident Evil", "Dawn of the Dead", and "28 Days Later").

The version of this song, "Rich Girl", is followed by a reggae rap song that is not part of it. I think the two songs have been fused together and were maybe part of a reggae continuous mix that I accidentally downloaded a long, long time ago. I like the last part of the song, and I recently realized that Cutty Ranks has a song that the sound must have come from called "Limb by Limb". Here is that song ...

M.I.A. and Diplo's "Piracy Funds Terrorism, vol. 1" have a song called "M.I.A./Cutty Ranks" that samples the lyrics from the above song. Here it is ...

I have made a YouTube playlist for Piracy Funds Terrorism, vol. 1, but it is not complete, yet. Here is what I have so far ...
In other news, I hope the debates tonight between Biden and Palin will be interesting. I would think that she would stumble because there's only so much prep work you can do to try to fake knowledge. I know Biden is very knowledgeable and will be able to back up his ideas with specific details. I think Palin will be flustered. I think Tina Fey should do the debate for her, but that would give the Republicans an unfair advantage. ;)

I have been listening to Radiohead a lot lately. I do this from time to time. I really need to start listening to new music just so I know what is out there. However, I don't discover any new music that I like that often. I do want the new Ladyhawke album as soon as it is available to download for the U.S.

Here is a Radiohead song that I have sort of rediscovered from "Hail to the Thief" ...

I also really like this song from "In Rainbows" ...

M.I.A. has a new song out there with Busy Signal and Rye Rye called "Tic Toc" (I think that is the right name). The song is not my favorite, but the "tic tic tic tic toc ... toc toc toc toc tic" sound in the background is pretty cool ...

Another old song I have been listening to a lot lately is "The State We're In" by The Chemical Brothers and Beth Orton. However, you can't listen to "The State We're In" without listening to the following song on the album, "Come With Us", which is called "Denmark". The two songs are one in my ears. Here are the songs combined ...
