A Supermarket in 1971

 


Experiencing a supermarket in 1971 with muzak.

TIL the spelling of "muzak" assuming the video title is correct.

The Charismatic Voice - More Than a Feeling

 


Another video in the "delightful" category.

The first time I heard "More Than a Feeling" I was probably in my mid-teens and it changed me, man. It was instantly a favorite.

The Charismatic Voice - Since I've Been Loving You

 


Are you ready to start your 30 minute Zeppelin journey of emotion?

And here is where I insert the unnecessary critique. I think it's a disservice that her first exposure of Led Zeppelin's music is the live versions rather than the studio versions. The jazz-like riffing and mutation hangs on the previous knowledge of the song's original form. It's a bit like seeing a parody of a movie without seeing what it is mocking (not to say that Led Zeppelin live is a parody). But... she really seems to enjoy them so... as long as she's happy...

Game Grumps - Lawn Mowing Simulator

 

There is a strange synchronization going on. I started watching restoration videos, then moved on to power-washing videos, then carpet washing videos and then lawn mowing videos. Meanwhile the Grumps have played a power-washing game and now a lawn mowing game.

And I am on the precipice of being even more of a joke. I watch this video and I think, "I want to play that game." And it's just a small step away from avoiding mowing the lawn in order to stay in and play Lawn Mowing Simulator. The temptation is there despite being completely aware of the Simpsons joke. Sad.
