It’s pretty weird that I’ve only heard this song not-so-many times, and not even every year (or every 5 years even). But I heard it on the radio a few days ago and got really enthusiastic about it and listened to it repeatedly yesterday:
- Iggy Pop - Real Wild Child (youtube)
At one point I began wondering that not very many bands could cover this song without looking total jerks. Then it came to my mind that there’s one Finnish band that I think actually could do it (live, not on a record perhaps): I Was A Teenage Satan Worshipper. After a while I was looking at the song video again and the world showed me how strange it can be at times. The guitarist on Iggy’s video had the same shirt as the keyboard player of IWATSW on their home site (http://www.iwatsw.com/). At least at the time of this writing :)
Indie stuff
Ah, of course there has to be the Indie thing too! There’s a great, awfully cute French singer, Yelle. The band has made many great songs for their record “Pop-Up”, but there’s one song that found itself on the “repeat one” mode of my player:
- Yelle - Amour Du Sol (youtube)
It’s electropop. The other songs on the record are actually not so poppy.
Life
Aaaaa, terrible hangover! And I noticed I’ve managed to break yet another pair of earphones yesterday. They are third this year (actually I just lost one pair, probably without breaking them). I’ve also lost two pairs of gloves, one bag and two hats. After this I bought two new pairs of gloves (so that I could lose one pair without needing to go shopping again). Then I lost one pair while at work, but my boss found them when he had to go to the same place where I had been working when I lost them. So that day I left work with a total of four gloves. But came home with only three :D Luckily, I found the lost one on the next day when I searched the lobby of my work place.
Today I also found one of my shoes from the toilet. But I had managed to break it’s shoelaces. Probably I’d had some difficulties in removing the shoe when I came home. I’m beginning to think I’m hopeless..

You should go to a hardware store and buy a ten-pack of gardener(?) gloves (näppylähanskat). They are cheap and stylish!
