Top Ten Tuesday: Nicki Minaj "Chun Li"

This one rocketed from 92 -> 10 this week! I love that she named this song after a Street Fighter II character.

And it's a very interesting video (I wrote the first paragraph before I watched it) although I wish there had been more Street Fighter refs in it

Top Ten Tuesday: Drake "Nice For What"

This is the first song in the history of the Hot 100 to replace another song by the same artist, where both songs debuted at #1. Which is pretty cool. I like when history gets made. It also samples "Ex-Factor" by Lauryn Hill, and I hope that leads to a whole new group of people discovering THAT amazing album.

I like this song and video quite a bit!

New Countdown: That Nostalgic Feeling of a Comatose Computer

Moon Taxi



There was a time, early on in this countdown's life, where I would constantly have computer problems and would have to figure out ways around them. That is what I dealt with, with this episode as my computer has fallen very ill. But I am hopeful that it is on the mend. This episode was entirely recorded while I waited for Nicole from Apple to call me back. Which is not a dig against Nicole. She has been awesome and I recognize that she is not only dealing with me.

ANYways. This was a good countdown. I hope that the musical differences between my vocals and the songs isn't too jarring. Enjoy!

Top Ten Tuesday: The Weeknd "Call Out My Name"

New stuff from The Weeknd will always go to the top of the list for me. This one debuts at #4! The new EP debuts at #1 over on the Billboard 200.

Top Ten Tuesday - XXXTentacion - Sad!

This song is fine. Nothing too special, but it wasn't as off the wall as I was anticipating. It should be noted that this guy is very very very controversial in terms of his run-ins with the law and history of domestic violence and lots of really bad stuff.
