I think that most of these songs actually aren’t… Continue reading songs that dented my brain this year

I can’t… Continue reading i live in a hologram with you
Lullatone
After maiki wrote about Lullatone, I got Songs that Spin in Circles because I am trying to relax. I like it. =) I’ll probably get Looping Lullabies next. I like the pure instrumentals more than the ones with vocals, even if they are background-level. I particularly like “Tops on a Table”, because it’s got this… Continue reading Lullatone

i am posting this for people who know me but not isaac, which by now is not many of you, but still
Through berkeleyjew, I disovered the joys of “Finite Simple Group (of order 2)”, and now, so can you: http://www.math.northwestern.edu/~matt/kleinfour/ Regrettably I must admit that “Math you like a Broderick” now has competition.

The end of the trailer for “Unleashed” (Jet Li) has the instrumental backings (no vocals) from Muse’s “Apocalypse Please.” I like Muse. I like pianos. I don’t know what to think about the new Jet Li movie. It’ll make good use of the “Jet Li looks so cute and unassuming but actually he has lethal powers”… Continue reading Untitled
