Live Out All The Romance

Squeeze “Someone Else’s Bell” – Why did I ignore Squeeze for so long? I’ve always loved “Tempted,” “Cool For Cats,” and “Pulling Mussels (From The Shell)” (which as a child, I thought was “Pulling Muscles For Michelle”), but I never bothered with checking out the rest of Squeeze’s music until just recently. “Someone Else’s Bell” is a highlight from the East Side Story LP, which I’ve been listening to quite a bit over the past few days. If you’re into lyrical pop rock like Elvis Costello, Spoon, Sally Crewe, and Joe Jackson, this is music for you.

Avenue D w/ Cazwell “Sex That I Need” – If you can’t handle novelty dance records, you might want to pass this one over. These are the girls who gave us the excellent “Do I Look Like A Slut?” last year, and this time they are joined by raunchy gay rapper Cazwell. Please be advised that the rhymes in this song are of the over-the-top xxx variety, and that if you’re at work, it may not be the best idea to play this at your desk.
