Major Lazer – “Original Don”
I guess I’ll call this a choreographed, bladed-weapon, international ghetto-tech homage to Napoleon Dynamite. Not sure how much I’m in love with a random dude yelling “bomboclat” – but Diplo in a yellow knitted collared shirt buttoned to the top more than makes up for it, and just might start an international fashion craze.

Ty Segall – “Where Your Head Goes”
“Drugs are good, and if you do them people think that you’re cool.” That’s a NOFX lyric I reference every once in a while when I don’t have original words to express a thought, but I think sounds funny and will get a laugh. It almost never does, people usually think I’m serious (I’m half serious) and don’t laugh and girls definitely don’t want to fuck me anymore. So I’ll stop saying that, I think.
Young the Giant – “My Body”
Thanks for calling me out on Young The Giant this week Liz. I should have known who Young The Giant was, and I really like songs that could potentially be perceived as the thoughts of a serial rapist. Sign me up!
Das Racist – “Brand New Dance”
Not quite sure why this song deserves a video, and I still can’t tell if and when Das Racist is playing a practical joke on us and when they’re being serious. Not sure if I like that “style.” On another note, I literally googled “gold chain rental” last night…because I’m interested in renting a giant gold chain, you know, for special occasions.
