one, two, three marlenas

So. Picture this. I'm on iTunes, just browsing music, and I happened to stumble upon this album by the Wallflowers, "Bringing Down the Horse." The big song off of it was, "One Headlight" and guess what? I hated that shit. It was on the radio all the time, and on top of that? All of my friends thought Jakob Dylan was the hottest man ever. It really irked me.


We had to go to DC for this trip and my one friend had this picture (below) that she kept by her bed in the hotel and gazed at on the bus the entire time! I was all, "What the HELL I HATE HIM!" Yeah, the picture shows off his nice eyes, but other than that? Not feelin' it.

SO back to itunes. I stumble upon this album and I'm like, "Wonder if I'd like it now" so I previewed some tracks. I remembered that I kinda sorta liked, "6th Avenue Heartache", but it was totally a "bitter like". Then there were other songs like, "Three Marlenas" and "The Difference" and guess what? I previewed the other songs and it really wasn't that bad. In fact, I can say that, based on the preview, it was a good album.

The problem? I finally like the album enough to buy it and guess what? Becuase the music industry sucks shit now - this CD? Not anywhere. Well okay, it was in a local F.Y.E for $20.00, but, come on. I used to hate this band. I am only willing to spend $13.99 tops. This CD was huge in 97/98.. why don't they keep the hits stocked?!

Ah well. Sorry Wallflowers. I tried. Maybe one day I'll find you for the cheap price I desire.

Anyway, you know what song I'll never forgive for being made?
"Steal My Sunshine" by Len.
