"What does it take to turn you on?"

This song is my newest fascination. Suede brought overt sexuality to the forefront of 90s music alongside Pulp. This video is deliciously disturbing and strangely enticing. Brett Anderson's vocals are amazing and seductive. The guitar work is gorgeous and lends to the dirty, sexual tone.

Fabulously Burnt Coffee and a myriad of great oddities

First of all, take a look at this work of genius that I found in Home Goods yesterday. This fabulous cock sculpture stands about 6 feet tall and is going for 200 bucks. Who ever buys this sublime fixture is the luckiest being on the planet.

Speaking of genius, I highly recommend this blog to anyone and everyone. This man's conscious misuse of the English language is absolutely brilliant. He is a deconstructionist without even knowing it! Derrida would be so proud. Plus, he blogs about my favorite musicians and is not afraid to get.. uhh...controversial. Love it.

I'd like to end on Lou Barlow's fabulous cover of Elliott Smith's "Cupid's Trick". This song was played as a part of a tribute show at the 2003 ATP festival. I was awestruck and stupefied when I found this. Barlow and the band did a gorgeous job.

Heatmiser= awesome

I love, love, love the chord progression in this song. Gorgeous piece of craftsmanship right here. Portland breeds some awesome sounds!
