Song of the Moment LXV: Them Crooked Vultures’ “Mind Eraser, No Chaser”

I said I would listen to at least one different music artist per week, and last Monday I listened to all of Spice Girls’ studio albums. (Yes, I listen to Spice Girls. Deal with it.) But because January 14 is Dave Grohl’s birthday, I had to set the iconic English girl group aside and listen more to the bands throughout Mr. Grohl’s career – iconic grunge band Nirvana, my favorite band of all time Foo Fighters, and my favorite rock supergroup Them Crooked Vultures.

As I type this, I’m drinking my favorite Jack and Coke Zero while listening to “Mind Eraser, No Chaser”, the second song from Them Crooked Vultures’ self-titled debut (and only) album and my favorite song from them. Mr. Grohl’s team-up with Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin is mind-blowing. I hope they will reunite and make another record.

Belated happiest birthday to Dave Grohl!

Song of the Moment XX: Spice Girls’ “Stop”

Hi, everyone. Before I start this 200th post on The Diary (and the 20th Song of the Moment post), I need to explain something: Once again, I didn’t update The Diary on a Wednesday. Why? Because I was too sad to talk about anything. Hell, I don’t feel like finishing my post about my lowest point ever. I just wanted to do other things like running on the treadmill, lifting weights, rest for several hours, and spending time with my family… and I did all of those things and it made me feel better. To top it all off, I also watched several movies from the British action comedy Hot Fuzz (for the nth time) to the remake of the action flick Road House.

Now that I feel better, I will post something this weekend – probably on Sunday.

Anyway, what is my Song of the Moment right now? It’s my favorite Spice Girls song next to “Too Much” – “Stop”. Thank you very much, my favorite girl group, for cheering me up. Now, let me do the chorus dance in my room.

That is all.

Song of the Moment XII: Enya’s “Anywhere Is”

I have been listening to Enya’s songs since last night – notably “Anywhere Is” – and it has been an otherworldly experience. Her music is so ethereal and relaxing (partly because I grew up listening to her), and I can’t get enough of it. I should check out her other albums soon.

I walk the maze of moment
But everywhere I turn to
Begins a new beginning
But never finds a finish
