Tonight I'm going to see Manu Chao and his Radio Bemba Sound System at the greatest venue in the universe-Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
Thus...
The SONG OF THE DAY is:
"Bongo Bong" from Manu Chao's Clandestino. Check him out if you haven't yet. He was born in Paris to spanish parents and sings in spanish, english, french, portuegese, and about 29 other languages. His steez is tough to describe, but is a mix of reggae, electronica, rock, disco, blah blah, just listen to it. Good beginner songs to get you hooked: "Bongo bong" and "Me gustas tu."
The LYRIC OF THE DAY is from the same song:
"I'm so happy there's nobody in my place instead of me"
That's a rare and beautiful thing to be able to say.
(Editor's Note: There will be no weekend blog due to a trip to the holy birthplace of the creator; Lincoln, NE for Gigi's (grandma) 75th bday. woooohooooo. Ill be back next week with my take on what should be one of the greatest episode's in TV history: You know, The American Gladiators where Flash and Turbo throw no-hitters in the same game. Psych, it's obviously the series finale of The Sopranos.)
