Weekend Ear Candy: Jackson 5’s “ABC” and Clerks 2

Until I saw it on YouTube I had forgotten about the dance routine in the middle of the film Clerks 2 – the follow up to the cult classic Clerks by Kevin Smith. The song is one of my favorite Jackson 5 songs and the routine in such a recent film is tribute to the Jacksons and Michael.

The first 20 seconds or so isn’t office or family friendly language wise……. just turn down the sound until you see Jay and Silent Bob with the boombox.

Announcing a new page about Swing Out Sister


I had some time this weekend to finally create and upload a tribute page for one of my longtime favorite bands, Swing Out Sister. I have liked them and their music ever since the debut in 1987. They started out as just another synth pop dance band common during the late 80’s but their music seemed different. It sounded fresh even if the style was not. Then through the years they evolved into more of a cool jazz style.

Some reviewers accuse them of having more style over substance but their music is just plain fun to listen to, even the slow ballads.

If you are a fan of late 60’s Burt Bacharach with bits of a Latin beat then Swing Out Sister might be your cup o’ tea.
