Skye Friday!

You know you're psyched for this.

It's that time again, for the first time! SKYE FRIDAY is that glorious day of the week when I post a Skye Sweetnam song for everyone to download and enjoy. With any luck, I'll find material from other sources than Noise from the Basement in the coming weeks and months of SKYE FRIDAYS.

But this post would be incomplete without a few other random musings, which have been much more cathartic than big clunky travel pieces lately.

1) I finished my ABBA article for the Ithacan. Here's hoping it publishes without a hitch (I devote like 150 words to Agnetha alone). I'm still thinking of titles for my column...right now the frontrunner is "Pop Wash," though I'm very open to less stupid suggestions from my friends, who should really try commenting more because it makes me feel good about myself. Below I've posted the current stuck-in-head song off of the two-disc ABBA comp I bought yesterday in a fit of ecstasy. I think that the Bumblebees could cover it with Cathy Bumble on vocals.

2) According to Teh Fork (yeah, again), Annie is doing the next DJ Kicks installment!!!!! I would host the recently Fluxblogged live recording of "The Wedding," but it's still available at the other site.

3) Don't you think it's time for someone to bring more Jon Bougher acoustic gold to the inter-world? I do. Below is a track from his seminal 2003 album Why Did the Dinosaurs Die?, apparently dedicated to me.
