This is beautiful. It’s called Crystal Cat. And it’s by our hero, Dan Deacon. A few of us went to his show here in Atlanta a wee bit ago and it melted our collective souls.
What’s better than listening to Journey? Getting laid while listening to Journey. But what’s better than that? Watching people get laid to Journey.
OK. That’s not cool. I don’t know why I said that.
What is better than listening to Journey is hanging out with a bunch of your musician friends, putting on noise-cancelling headphones, then listening to Journey and playing along—subsequently butchering the song. Set that banger to the original music videos and you’ve got the beautifully retarded works of the Legion of Rock Stars.
“Any Way You Want It” by Journey
“Too Legit To Quit” by MC Hammer
“Operator” by Jim Croce

Sure, Atlanta’s home to Outkast, Ludacris, T.I., Cee-Lo, Goodie Mob, Ying Yang Twins, Lil’ Jon, Jermaine Dupri, Dallas Austin, Young Jeezy, Lil’ Scrappy, Killer Mike, TLC, Usher, Monica, 112, Ciara, Bonecrusher, Yung Joc, Majesty, Keith Sweat, Dem Franchize Boyz, Youngbloodz, Trillville … and a little metal group called MASTODON!!!
But it’s really nice to see some of the lesser-known acts here getting so much exposure lately (the Black Lips, Deerhunter, Snowden, Manchester Orchestra anyone?). And now it seems MTV has taken a brief moment from its reality TV programming to pay respects…
Ssshhh. You hear that? That’s the sound of punk rock’s rotting corpse being defiled by a generation of Hot Topic emo-abortions like this guy.
Remember those “Choose Your Own Adventure” books we all enjoyed back in our pants-crapping days?
Well, this little exercise is sort of like those books, except I’ll go ahead and tell you upfront, whichever video you choose to watch will produce the same result: you wanting to gouge your own eyes and eardrums out with your cat’s dick.
Now, let’s play Choose Your Own Abortion!!
#1. Celine Dion & some fucking Elvis robot or whatever on “American Idol”
#2. Celine Dion & some fucking Eurotrash chick slaughtering an AC/DC song
This be uplifting and shit. For reals. The beats is banging, but the lyrics really make me think about shit. And shit.
