Dream theater

This morning's sequence of events:

- Dreaming about an elusive, long-lost crush.

- Awakening to Dave Matthews' "Where Are You Going?", whose first words are the title.

- Listening to the next song, John Mayer's "Dreaming With A Broken Heart."

- Focusing on those first lyrics: "When you're dreaming with a broken heart/The waking up is the hardest part."

Clearly, my satellite radio has telepathy.

Because Perry Farrell is the very beacon of masculinity

I accidentally left my portable Sirius satellite radio component at home today, so I decided to listen to K-Rock, which seems to be a little defensive, and contradictory, in its latest pitch to listeners.

Between songs at about 4:45 p.m., the raspy male K-Rock announcer told listeners to listen elsewhere if they wanted "high-brow, metrosexual radio stations."

Before I had time to be offended, K-Rock proceeded to play Jane's Addiction's "Jane Says."

Just sayin'.

Unsollicited praise of Eliot Morris' single 'Fault Line'

I am unable to merge two things I love, so I'm a-bloggin' about both.

1. My Project Playlist, which I post on my MySpace profile:

2. A brilliant, earthy Eliot Morris song called "Faultline," which I first heard on Sirius satellite radio's Coffee House channel.

The Project Playlist format searches for sites that host specific mp3 files, but none seems to carry "Fault Line." It's such a good song, however, that I want to introduce it to the 100 or so people who click on this site per day. I'm neither being paid for this service, nor do I have any personal connection to Mr. Morris. But this song is addictive, and makes me want to learn acoustic guitar (again).

My only complaint: The "oooh-ooh-ooh" refrain is perhaps the catchiest part of the song, so why is there only one of them at the coda, instead of two? If that's done to leave the audience wanting more, mission accomplished.

OK, enough words. More Morris:
