Hailing from Nashville, Tenn., Afterlife Parade was born with one concept in mind: death. Singer/songwriter Quinn Erwin realized that all too often, the event of death is drenched in sadness rather than a celebratory event of the life of the deceased. This initial thought led to Afterlife Parade’s first part of a two-part concept, “Death.” The … Continue reading

Song of the day: “The Chain” – Fleetwood Mac
Two songs come to mind immediately when I hear the name Fleetwood Mac: Go Your Own Way and Landslide. Without fail, one of these songs will begin playing in my head upon hearing Fleetwood Mac. Clearly, the group has a much more extensive repertoire than those two songs, but those have been seared into my … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Smells Like Teen Spirit” – Nirvana
Not many words are needed to intro this one. Since today is the 17th anniversary of Kurt Cobain’s death, I found it appropriate to feature his work as the song of the day. Plus, I never mind listening to one of my favorite songs on repeat, either. Wanting to be someone else is a waste … Continue reading
Song of the day: “All Over Me” – Josh Turner
Alright, cold weather. I’ve had it up to here with you. You’ve overstayed your welcome (as you do every year) and, quite frankly, I’m sick of it. It is time for you to pack up your flurries and overly powerful wind gusts and hit the road. Goodbye; see you never (I wish). Bring on the … Continue reading
Song of the day: “ATL to LA to ME” – Stamps
Today is Friday and as usual, I spent my morning on the prowl for a “Friday” song. No, Rebecca Black’s hot mess of a YouTube video will not be gracing your ears via Haute Thought today; though if you want to have “fun fun fun fun,” you go right on ahead and add that song … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Somewhere With You” – Kenny Chesney
Good ol’ Kenny. I’ve loved you for years now and you’ve never let me down. Somewhere With You came up during my country-search-turned-rap-find day, but I only heard the first few seconds before having to pack up and head home. I did take 2 seconds to scribble down the song title and artist, though, and … Continue reading
Adele’s 21 to top UK charts
Edit: Looks like we all got too excited. Nicole Scherzinger just bumped Adele from the number one spot by selling 98,000 copies of her new album. Worry not, though. “Adele’s 21 has achieved in just two months what took Lady Gaga’s The Fame over two years. This really is a coming of age for digital … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Yeah Yeah Yeah” – New Politics
Time to shake the Monday blues. I’ve finally accepted that no matter how many times I wish it, I will not end up back in my bed until later tonight and the work week has officially begun. Moving on…. I meant to post this on Saturday but somehow, I failed to touch a computer. That’s … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Written in the Stars” – Tinie Tempah ft. Eric Turner
After watching countless country music videos last night, I woke up bound and determined to find a new country song to fall in love with. My dreams were full of whiskey, beer, being left by someone I love, losing my dog, and cursing out my broken down pick-up, all with an American flag waving in the … Continue reading
Jenny’s Song of the Day: “Party in the USA” – Miley Cyrus (sort of)
Turns out there are a few ways to have a song of the day. I try to find a new song each day, but Jenny has a song that describes and compliments her day–also rendering it a song of the day! by: Jenny Bolam I would like to think that I have semi-sophisticated taste in … Continue reading
