Story Problem

If two people start making music at the rate of one song a week for a year, how many songs will they have written in one year's time? That's an example of a story problem. And we'll write a song about the first person to comment with the correct answer. This week's song uses mathematical terminology to solve the problem of a love triangle. Singing calculators and cheerleaders! Hooray, a practical use for math-y stuff.

Extreme Man

Spring has sprung! The songs are certainly in full bloom around here. We actually had two songs written this week to choose from. We opted to record "Extreme Man" because of the more simplistic musical aesthetic of the song. This will allow us to do two very important things: 1) Spend more time making next week's song as lush and fabulous as it wants to be and 2) GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY NOW!

Full Drawn

While the title of this week's song is "Full Drawn", it marks the halfway point of our little blog project here. It seems like if a band or artist is around long enough they always end up with at least one Spanish flavored song. And we figured that since we are 26 songs into our 52 song journey it was time for us to do one. Consider this our "La Isla Bonita", or just a tequila fueled duet.

Don't Wig Out

This week's song is the long awaited, much talked about new Luv Club jam! It's a bit like Ladytron meets Lady Beware. The song is sung from the point of view of an eight-fingered stalker who obsesses over long-haired women because of their ability to grow and regrow hair while he is stuck with two bald spots where his missing fingers once were. Now dance!
