Little Too Freaky Tonight
This is not Aziz talking about him, this is actually R Kelly making up songs on the spot. I didn’t know he took requests.

New Julian?
Via Pop Candy, seems like Julian could be ready for a second solo album with changes to his website and him playing Lollapaloozas in South America. Though the last time the Strokes played Lolla Chicago, they said it was for the money.
Do Ya… like psychedelic rock?
The other day Xrt played this version of Do Ya that was slightly different than what I remembered hearing. After some internet-ing, it seems that, to accompany a 2012 solo/cover album, Jeff Lynne released “Very Best of ELO“, an album of ELO re-recording their hits. If you have heard all the songs too many times before, this album is good listen for some slight variations, with Do Ya as my favorite:
With all that research, I read that Do Ya was originally written by Lynne for a band called The Move. I never heard of that version or the band. And they are great, but if you give them a listen be prepared for some classic psychedelia, one characteristic being long songs (all the songs on their “Live at the Fillmore” range from 5-14 minutes long). Check out this sick jam:
My Girl’s Got a Cool Haircut
Might be a little too weird (and not as good as Kennedy’s Your Momma), but I was laughing at my desk (and I couldn’t find anything else to put up), so get ready for this song to get stuck in your head. Randomly found from Tom Middleditch’s website “Middleditch Littlebitch“:
Covers!
A lot of covers that I already knew about, but the mental floss website has a list of songs that you might not know are covers. Here is an example I didn’t know, should have known, and Mike will claim he told me about before:
