Cracker - Loser

June 30th, 2009 by Joshua

Cracker’s great cover of “Loser”, originally by The Grateful Dead

If I had a gun for every ace I have drawn,
I could arm a town the size of Abilene
Don’t you push me baby, because I’m holdin’ low
And you know I’m only in it for the gold

All that I am asking for is ten gold dollars
And I could pay you back with one good hand
You can look around about the wide world over
And you’ll never find another honest man.

Last fair deal in the country
Last fair deal in the town
Put your gold money where your love is baby
Before you let my deal go down

Don’t you push me baby, cause I’m holdin’ low
And I know a little something you won’t ever know
Don’t you touch hard liquor, just a cup of cold coffee
Gotta get up in the morning and go

Everybody’s prayin’ and drinkin’ that wine
I can tell the Queen of Diamonds by the way she shines
Come to daddy on the inside straight,
Well I got no chance of losin’ this time

Last fair deal in the country,
Last fair deal in the town
Put your gold money where your love is baby,
Before you let my deal go down

Everybody’s prayin’ and drinkin’ that wine
I can tell the Queen of Diamonds by the way she shines
Come to daddy on the inside straight,
Well I got no chance of losin’ this time.

Twilight of the Tummlers: “Whatever Works”

May 28th, 2009 by Joshua

New York Magazine has an excellent cover story about Jewish comedy. The spur for the article is a new Woody Allen movie from an old script, “Whatever Works”. To be honest, the recent London Woody Allen flicks can’t compare to his old New York ones. Woody Allen in London is a fish out of water. Woody Allen finally returns to NYC.

The Jamaicans - BaBa Boom

May 28th, 2009 by Joshua

Incredibly delicious rocksteady tune. Rocksteady is the missing link between Ska and Reggae. Maybe the word “reggae” comes from someone who’s drunk slurring the word “rocksteady”. Anywho, if this doesn’t knock your socks off, you’re not wearing any.
