Today’s song of the day is from Crystal Method. Though Keep Hope Alive was featured in the film The Replacement Killers, it was actually inspired by a 1992 speech from Jesse Jackson, which is heard throughout the song.

Today, we wish a happy birthday to the one and only Victoria Justice!
Enjoy!
Given the fact that today is the birthday of both John Hughes and Molly Ringwald, it seems obvious what today’s song of the day should be.
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ooh, woah
Won’t you come see about me?
I’ll be alone, dancing, you know it, baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving everything inside and out and
Love’s strange, so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby
Don’t you, forget about me
Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t
Don’t you, forget about me
Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down
Will you recognize me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ooh, woah
Don’t you try and pretend
It’s my feeling we’ll win in the end
I won’t harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security, ah
Don’t you forget about me
I’ll be alone, dancing, you know it, baby
Going to take you apart
I’ll put us back together at heart, baby
Don’t you, forget about me
Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t
Don’t you, forget about me
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
When you walk away
Or will you walk away?
Will you walk on by?
Come on, call my name
Will you call my name?
I say
La, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
When you walk on by
And you call my name
When you walk on by
It’s Ash Wednesday! Sharing this song by David Bowie is a bit of an Ash Wednesday tradition and I’m going to keep it going this year. (Yes, I understand the song isn’t actually about Ash Wednesday but, for me, it is.)
This is from a 2000 performance in London.
Enjoy!
Today, we celebrate Mardi Gras with a song that was featured in the first James Bond film to take place in New Orleans!
Happy Mardi Gras to all!
What can I say about this video other than it’s definitely authentic? There’s a lot of people who will be able to relate to every word of this song. This guy actually reminds me of more than a few of my cousins. The fact that the song features more than a little Cajun French only contributes to the authenticity.
Robert Duvall missed out on his chance to play Haven Hamilton in Robert Altman’s Nashville but 8 years later, he gave a performance as a country musician that would him his only Oscar.
This is from 1983’s Tender Mercies.
Robert Duvall, RIP
Today’s music video of the day is the latest from the great Black Keys!

With Valentine’s Day approaching, here’s one of my favorite romantic songs. I’ll be singing this song on Saturday. It’s tradition.
Enjoy!
