The Purple One...


Well...since his one of a kind voice is stuck in my head...I figured I'd blog about him.

Oh, Prince...will you PLEASE book another tour date in Kansas City?? The last time you did, I was in college and it was the week of finals...coming home for a once in a lifetime event wasn't a priority of mine...how dumb I was...but I got my degree!! :) But seriously, can you make another trip back to my city, so I can experience the greatness you bring to a stage? Just asking...

Last night, a friend of mine decided that Prince should have been on rotation for the night. We listened to ALL of "3121" - one of my faves, and some retro Prince such as "Purple Rain" (which I learned is exactly 8 minutes and 18 seconds); "Kiss", "When Doves Cry", and "Pink Cashmere". As a result of this random listening session...I can't get the Artist Formally Known out of my head. Don't get me wrong...I'm not complaining...I just wish I could funnel all these random songs onto an MP3 disc and get the party started for real.

So...I'm going to go through my Prince catalog of faves and create my ultimate play list...feel free to drop off your suggestions...

ciao!

MTV - SMH...


Last night, after a day of rest, and an evening of cooking and baking, I plopped down on my couch and started surfing channels. I landed on MTV. Airing at the exact time that I landed on the channel was the 2009 MTV Movie Awards - now based on the history of this award show, I knew that there would be a slew of random acts that made no sense at all.





What I wasn't ready for was the following:

1. Eminem getting another man's lower crotch and buttocks in his face...in front of millions of viewers. (My jaw was dropped for about 10 minutes on this one while I twittered and FB to see if what had just happened really had just happened)

2. LeAnn Rhimes & Forrest Whittaker singing operatic versions of "Gizz in my jeans," "D*ck in a Box," and "Mother Lover." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRhjQSgziD8 - probably the best thing from the whole show...lol!

3. Whoever that random producer was having air sex with the popcorn statue that he was awarded.

4. Kiefer Sutherland "crying" over how much he appreciated Ben Stiller as an actor.

5. The new Orbit guy presenting an award.

6. The new WTF Award category.

MTV never lets us down with the disgusting and ridiculous acts of randomness that they stage, or that they just allow to happen. I just hope I didn't lose too many brain cells last night witnessing such madness.

*smooches*
