Dogs Die in Hot Cars - "I Love You 'Cause I Have To"
Don't ask and I won't tell. This was a quirky, one-off kind of song from my footloose and fancy free days from the mid 2000s. Woke up this morning and it was in my head, for some reason. Enjoy!

Skinshape - "I Didn't Know"
Since things are warming up. Sit back, relax and let the positive vibes of this track be sent your way. Ridiculously easy Friday tune for you.
I couldn't decide on a track from Synchronicity. Such a solid album, although Regatta de Blanc was awesome too

Iggy Pop & Sum 41 - "Little Know It All"
I've only recently come around to Sum 41. Was kinda put off by their quasi-forced "punk-itude" back when they first came out in the early 2000s. However, i've always loved this track. From Iggy Pop's album Skull Ring. A Santana-esque mash-up, featuring a bunch of punk acts providing the music for Pop's legendary vocals. I need more songs like this that start at 10 and end at 10. All the way through

The Vandals - "Jackass"
The Vandals have steadily been a punk band and contributed to,not only the 90's & 2000s punk rock revival but have helped the entire scene since the 80's. More notably so with their albums prior to 2000.
Needless to say, they've put out a lot of great jams. They've seen a long line up of front and back band members, but haven't skipped and skimped when it comes to pumping out great tracks. Anyone heard of cowpunk? These guys have dabbled... This jam is one of the many great tunes that zaps me back to some good parties and feel good times. Happy Freaky Friday!
Mr. T Chronixx - "Spanish Town Rockin'"
This one came up on the Sirius XM last week and I was like "Oooohhhhh I like"
G-Man Metallica - "All Withing My Hands" w/ The San Francisco Symphony Orchestra
It's been a long wait for the release of Metallica's S&M2. Recorded back in September 2019, it was well worth the wait. To make it stand out from their first concert with an Orchestra back in 1999, Metallica took a few more chances with the songs they chose this time around. Featuring a bass solo, James singing with just the Orchestra and Metallica playing with the Symphony to a piece composed by a Russian composer in the in 1920s. I think the most impressive feat was turning one of my least favourite Metallica songs into one of my current favourites. Taking a track off of St. Anger, turning it acoustic and adding a full Orchestra, leaves "All Within My Hands" one of the stand outs of an already fantastic album. Finally, something good in 2020

Apple Music brought it to my attention just this morning and it needed sharing!

J.B. Grimes - "Reaiti"
In case you've been living under a rock for the past year or two, to me five years. Grimes is a Canadian musical genius creating and writing music for some pretty high level music heads. Maybe you've seen her next to a certain mega-billionaire/rocket ship and car maker. She has some amazing tunes though and this one is a guilty pleasure for sure. If you want to about musical arc, her repetoire definitely has matured and changed dramatically. Enjoy
