And here's the song from last night's livestream.

I had way too much fun playing that solo.

25 Geggy Tah - Whoever You Are

When this song was in rotation on MuchMusic, I thought it was stupid and annoying and wished it'd go away already. When it fell out of rotation, I started to miss it.

Getting set up for my Saturday night music production stream. I'll be trying to get a new track made in a 2 hour window. No AI will be used.

Stream starts in about an hour.

24. Radiohead - Exit Music (for a film)

The first time I listened to OK Computer was a life-changing experience. I believe in the transformative power of music, because music changed how I see the world around me.

23. Eric's Trip - View Master

As a fellow Monctonian, Eric's Trip were local legends. But the big revelation for me was that they recorded at home on consumer-grade equipment. Up to that point, I didn't even know you were ALLOWED to do that.

To whomever saw fit to downvote a video with less than ten views.

Good job big man, way to tell truth to power.

time to once again start setting up for Let's Jam, my one-hour fully improvised musical stream of consciousness.

Some may whine about a diminishing audience, but some of us never had one to begin with, and yet WE keep going.

22. The Smashing Pumpkins - Bullet With Butterfly Wings.

Billy Corgan says that this song was always meant to be ironic, like a satire of his own public persona... I don't entirely believe him.

21. The Simpsons - Do the Bartman

It's hard to explain the impact of the Simpsons to younger generations, as the particular version of pop media that the show was built to skewer has been dead for decades. The Simpsons was revolutionary in it's heyday.

Just throwing a quick question out there. If I announced my gaming streams on here the same way I do with my music streams, would that be helpful to you? Would it make you more likely to come by?

Please be honest. I'd rather be told "No" than made to waste my time.

20. Stompin' Tom Connors - Bud the Spud

I don't like country music, but being of a certain generation from a certain part of the country, there's no way Stompin' Tom wasn't going have a place in my musical upbringing.

19. Starship - We Built This City

Not all my fond musical memories are of good songs. This was another car ride radio tune, and it really doesn't hold up. Then I found out that this is an offshoot of the band that did White Rabbit? What happened?

18. Soundgarden - Boot Camp

I knew them by reputation when I bought the CD, but it was the closing track that left an impact. This song perfectly describes the miserable experience of being 13 years old.

Well, time to start setting up for the regularly scheduled music production stream. I'll be trying to make a new track in a two hour window. Absolutely no AI will be used.

This one might be a bit simpler than usual.

Here's the cover of Grin & Bear from last night's livestream.

Track turned out okay, vocals were not quite up to the task. This does not surprise me.

Bush - Machinehead

Or Bush X as I knew them at the time. They were the first alt-rock band that I really got into, though I'd eventually cave to peer pressure and distance myself from them.

I'm setting up now for tonight's bonus stream, where I will be attempting to record a cover of Lali Puna's song "Grin and Bear."

This may end up being a "creative interpretation" of the song. Stream starts in about an hour.

16. White Zombie - I'm Your Boogie Man

From the soundtrack to The Crow: City of Angels, one of two soundtrack albums that was influential for me (the other one was Spawn). I didn't know at the time that this was a cover of KC & The Sunshine Band song.
