Come Down the Rabbit Hole With Me

October 10, 2014 by

I first heard this song when a friend of mine dropped it in my inbox and whispered, Watch this. Well, he might not have whispered that. He was on the other side of the world at the time. I felt it was implied. This is probably an obvious choice for the Drink Me soundtrack, but the video […]

Freedom is Just Another Word For Nothing Left to Lose

September 26, 2014 by

The thing that gets me about this song is the line, Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose. Because I always want to argue the point. But I’m not totally sure which side I’m on. It’s a kind of depressing song. So, sorry about that. But I stumbled across a video of Pink […]

Of Those Memories I Pretend to Forget

This song was apparently written for the TV show Justified, and there is no official music video I feel no qualms about giving you a Justified tribute video to go with the song. Also, it gives me the opportunity to say, “Hey, if you haven’t watched it, you should check out Justified. It’s pretty awesome. If […]

Willing to Make a Deal

There are a lot of different versions of this song, but this is the one that plays in my head. “I guess you didn’t know it, but I’m a fiddle player, too. And if you’d care to take a dare I’ll make a bet with you. Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy, but […]

This Is It, The Apocalypse

Today’s videoclip is not part of any of my writing playlists, but a friend traumatised me with it earlier in the week and I want to share. I feel like I should be offering trigger warnings like Violence to Muppets/Assorted Plushies. So, you know, if you find that kind of thing bothersome… maybe watch through your […]

Fold ‘Em, Let ‘Em, Hit Me, Raise It, Baby, Stay With Me.

My favourite thing to do with this song is misinterpret the lyrics and focus on the wrong parts. It’s also fun to dance to. Russian Roulette is not the same without a gun And baby when it’s love if its not rough it isn’t fun.

All the people that you see in the night Hold their dreams up to the light …. And we are not going home    

It’s Also a Cocktail Made of Stout and Champagne

In case you didn’t know, this song is about Elvis. I didn’t figure that out for ages and now I’m not sure why because it seems super obvious. Maybe I was just listening to the drum beat. Black velvet and that little boy’s smile Black velvet with that slow southern style A new religion that’ll […]

On a Warm Summer’s Eve, on a Train Bound for Nowhere…

Arkem: If it’s a train bound for nowhere why don’t they get off? Me: They wanted somewhere to have a nap. Arkem: And a chat. And some whiskey. Me: Sounds pretty good to me. Arkem: ….so they were at the bar? …. If I open a bar I’m going to call it ‘Train Bound For […]

Some People Living For Pleasure, Some Thriving On Pain

July 11, 2014 by

I wasn’t really expecting it but somehow a bunch of songs that at least walk the borderline of Country ended up in this playlist. I guess if you think about it, it makes sense. They’re all songs about making bad decisions and gambling with the universe. In any case, I have been freakishly fond of this […]
