This is not normal: 16 steps to “Plane”

Posted by: bigtunelover on: June 24, 2009

Last night I watched a movie that shall remain nameless for the time being so that I don’t spoil it for anyone. In this movie there was a plane crash. I had a song pop into my head for like a millisecond and then “poof” – gone. It was driving me crazy but I could [...]

Breeders, Lips and Detachable Penis

Posted by: bigtunelover on: June 12, 2009

The mind works in mysterious ways. Today was a nostalgic music day for me. My recent post on an UNKLE song resulted in a friend of mine recommending The Flaming Lips latest CD to me. The moment I read the words The Flaming Lips my mind was off and running, recalling song after song from [...]

She Talks To Angels

Posted by: bigtunelover on: June 5, 2009

There is something exciting about new music. Something unheard or unknown but great, brings about an excitement that is rare so I am always on the lookout. Let me go on record right now as saying that some people are so eager to “discover” new music that they discover crap and label it great. I [...]

When The Angels Cry – Cuando Los Angeles Lloran by Maná

Posted by: bigtunelover on: May 26, 2009

You are the benefit this morning of another tune that woke me up. “Cuando Los Angeles Lloran“ by Maná comes from my morning alarm clock CD and quietly woke me up this morning. This is a band that I really came to appreciate through family members of mine living down in Mexico. This track is [...]

Drunken Lazy Bastard – The Mahones

Posted by: bigtunelover on: May 25, 2009

I dare you not to tap your foot when you listen to this song. I double dog dare you. This popped up today and I literally RAN across the room to crank it up. I would have heard the neighbors banging I am sure if I didn’t have my sub woofer rattling the windows.
The Mahones are [...]

Run Lola Run – and you guys too!

Posted by: bigtunelover on: May 22, 2009

In honor of friends that are running races this weekend I decided to post in the spirit of the run. Run Lola Run is a fantastic movie with an equally stellar soundtrack. If you haven’t had an opportunity to see this flick I highly recommend it. Even with the subtitles. The soundtrack is perfectly suited [...]

Radiohead’s Exit Song (For A Film)

Posted by: bigtunelover on: May 22, 2009

So I have this mixed cd that I pop into the CD player in my bedroom frequently. It’s filled up with tunes that I like to wake up to. Usually the theme here is that it starts off quiet and builds to being noisy enough for me to be no longer sleeping. So I set [...]

Midnight Oil did you say? Truganini of Earth and Sun and Moon.

Posted by: bigtunelover on: May 21, 2009

Today’s Life of Tunes keeper was a nice surprise on a beautiful sunny day. I was just getting ready to head out to the car and do some work when my shuffle spit out Midnight Oil’s Truganini off their Earth and Sun and Moon album. Wow did that immediately transport me back to the summer [...]

No Blame It On The Rain, just No Rain ok?

Posted by: bigtunelover on: May 16, 2009

It’s another rainy day and it got me to thinking about my love-hate relationship with rain. There are days that I absolutely love the rain. Bring it on when I don’t have plans, or when the farmers are in desperate need. Let it pour when I don’t feel like dragging my ass out of bed. [...]
