Well here’s an old one by The Smiths. Today is my best friend Annmarie’s birthday & she loves birthday surprises & more importantly she LOVES Morrissey. So this tune is not the cheeriest of songs & I’m obviously not wishing her an “unhappy” birthday but I pretty positive she will like this blog post dedication to the day she was born. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANNMARIE!! Cheers, this one’s for you!

I’ve really been enjoying Ariel Pink’s album Before Today that came out earlier this year. It’s got some great songs on it. It feels very old like it was done back in the 70′s or something. I dig it.
