To say I was obsessed with this song when it was first released in the fall of 2018, would be an understatement. I was a fan of Joji since back in the “Filthy Frank & Pink Guy” days (See: Harlem Shake…if you know you know). When I first heard the synth and melody, I was…

Newdrivehome Blog #23 (3OH!3 – Still Around) I’m know what I felt when I first heard this song. I’ve known 3OH!3 since I first came out to Denver/Boulder in 2006. This isn’t their most popular song but the lyrics and vibe of the song…connected to me when I was going thru my divorce…and all my…

Newdrivehome Blog #18 (Goo Goo Dolls – Iris) When it comes to life changing songs that I’ll NEVER get tired of hearing; “Iris” sets itself apart from so many songs in my mind jukebox. I remember my teenage years hearing this song on the radio and how it moved me in a way that acted…

Newdrivehome Blog #17 (Newcleus – Jam On It) I…in a good way, blame my parents for my love of rhythm, hip-hop, and music in general. I remember long drives as a kid (probably to get me fall asleep). But I feel it helped me understand the rhythm in music and songs like this made me…

Newdrivehome Blog #15 (Ryan Adams – Come Pick Me Up) Here’s a late night entry to the blog. A short break from the spooky season posts. Although I’ve posted about Ryan Adams before…this song has hit me in a different way recently. For me, it’s a lonely song about a yearn for a toxic past…

Newdrivehome Blog #15 (Echo & the Bunnymen – The Killing Moon) For #spookyseason #5, all I will say is….The movie “Donnie Darko” changed my life.
