I'ma write something. Eventually.

This is a dual-purpose posting.

First of all, I would like to share something that literaryll found for me a little while ago that made me shriek like a little girl. Kanye West and Jamie Foxx performing Gold Digger & Touch the Sky at the Grammy Awards. Complete with bands, step shows, and fly 70s gear.

Now, Kanye can speak for himself, so what I want to publicly do is thank literaryll for all her time and energy, and the way that she is just so giving and and thoughtful, and in general, just a really fabulous person. This is why I have dubbed her The Miracle Worker. I don't come across people like this very often, which makes it all the greater when I do find them, so you know, thank you.

Secondly, I was multi-losing my rag today, not really paying attention to anything, when this voice started calling to me from my computer. Apparently, Gary from Snow Patrol and Guy from Elbow have had a baby, and they've named him Harry. Harry has a band called Kubb, which, apparently, is setting things on fire at the HMVs in the UK. So, here they are, My Musical Find of the Year, or at least so far this year -- Kubb 'Wicked Soul' & Kubb 'Grow'

Thirdly, (okay, so I can't count) can anybody figure out how to convert that Kanye/Jamie file so that my iPod will accept it, because right now, it's giving me the two-finger salute when I try to upload it from iTunes.

So I missed Kanye last night (watching BBC North & South), so did FAMU actually perform with them? I'm assuming they rocked, because hi, Marching 100, but I need the dl.

Videora iPod converter (http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/) is the reason I have way, way too many late-nineties teen pop video taking up space on the 60 gig.

You really confused me there for a sec. I then stopped being stupid.

You are my musical Mr. Miyagi.

Dude. Everyone I know has been squeeing about this from the second of its airing. THANK YOU FOR BRINGING ME INTO THE LOOP!

I am duly impressed.

Oops, haven't I mentioned Kubb to you?

Have you got the album (Mother)? If not, I'm guessing you'd want it...

I downloaded Grow, as you made it sound so *essential* and *impressive*. Thanks!

So if I'm the miracle worker, does that mean that hot Ari in your icon loves me? LOL

You! Provider of the AWESOME! I bow before your magnificence in thanks. *bows*

HOLD UP WAIT A MINUTE! Not only were they doing Goldigger on the Grammys, they did it in '70's fly gear? NOT ONLY THAT, but with FAMU'S, THE FUCKING FAMU's, Marching 100 steppin'?

I think I just got so ghetto, I regressed to my old neighborhood. AW HELL YEAH! The minute I get better internet (am working out details now) I'm downloading this shit like it's hot, because it is!

I totally love your musical taste (have I told you this before?) because you hooked me on Snow Patrol and now Kubb and yes, I want your music library.
