Don’t ask me why I obsessively look to rock ’n’ roll bands for some kind of model for a better society. I guess it’s just that I glimpsed something beautiful in a flashbulb moment once, and perhaps mistaking it for prophecy have been seeking its fulfillment ever since.

To the redhead in the '95 Buick: you had gone to put your cart away and I ran your dog over. It's hard to see over those motorized carts and your terrier was so small. I put in a shoebox on your hood. I hope you forgive me. I really do.

After the election Tuesday I was feeling so good about our country again, ya know? Like we as a people were FINALLY making strides towards becoming a better society. And then I clicked on the Craigslist missed connections pages and snapped out of it.Instantly. You ran her dog over in the Wal Mart parking lot and are apologizing via Craigslist?? At least you had the decency to put the remains in a shoebox and leave it on her hood though....classy move.

So...he is sort of breaking up with one girl, while at the same time fielding offers for more girls...all in the same post...he is an evil genius!
Something else I will try to do semi-regularly. I thought it would be fun to post some of my favorite 'rarities' for lack of a better word. Maybe a one hit wonder, or some obscure song by some obscure band that just caught my ear years ago, or whatever...just older songs that sort of flew under the mainstream radar.
The initial entry will be Seven Mary Three's 'Shelf Life' which i believe is from the Crow 2 Soundtrack...bad movie, great song...enjoy!
...or my email is anyway! Hey, it's me Blair...the Certain Songs staff of one. I just do this for the love of the music and am in no way trying to rip anybody off, so if you are an artist or a record label and you are not happy that I am promoting your music, or you want me to take a song down, just shoot me an email and I will most definitely oblige.
And please support the artists I post here in whatever way you can if you do download a song...go to a show, buy some merch, buy an album...these songs are the soundtrack to my life and I just love to share them. But I can only do that if the insanely talented artist responsible for said songs are able to eat.
I also love hearing new stuff...so any submissions can also be sent to my email, I will try my bestest to listen to everything and get back to you all...peace,love,rock n' roll.

Mission Statement
I guess you're old enough to know. Kids out on the east coast. Roughly twenty years old. Got coaxed out by a certain perfect ratio. Of warm beer to the summer smoke. And the meat loaf to the billy joel. Certain songs they get so scratched into our souls.
She goes low on the seats when she gets high in her car. She looks shallow but shes neck deep in the steamy dreams of the guys along the harbor bars. She's pulling out her shirttails and jacking up her socks. Stern and stoned and confident, coming up towards the jukebox. Born into the only songs that everybody finally sings along. B-1 is for the good girls. It's only the good die young. C-9 is for the making eyes. It's paradise by the dashboard light. D4 is for the lovers. B12 is for the speeders. And the hard drugs are for the bartenders and the kitchen workers and the bartender's friends. And they're playing it again. Ellen Foley gives us hope. Certain songs they get scratched into our souls.
I guess you're old enough to know. Kids out on the west coast are taking off their clothes. Screwing in the surf and going out to shows. They get high and ride around in gtos. I guess you're old enough to know. CERTAIN SONGS THEY GET SCRATCHED INTO OUR SOULS. - The Hold Steady
