Right now I’ve got “bitches” by Rory Blyth in heavy rotation on WinAmp. While it’s not notable that I’m fixated on a song, it is notable that the song is by someone who is more known for his writing and speaking in the technical world (and who happens to work for Microsoft now) than he is for music.
This makes me realize I should get my act together and post some of the recordings I’ve played on.
Thanks Yves for pointing to the direct link to download it from Rory’s site.

My new favourite tune: Tullycraft, “Twee”. A close second is another of their tunes “Popsongs Your New Boyfriend’s Too Stupid to Know About”

Go to the discography page and download to your heart’s content.
Whats Twee? according to http://dir.salon.com/ent/music/feature/2000/08/31/kindercore/index.html Twee is “a refutation of all that we know about rock ‘n’ roll. For twee kids, who use the term with equal parts reverie, disdain and cheek, the subculture doesn’t really have anything to do with actually, you know, rebelling or anything. Twee kids listen to an emasculated version of rock ‘n’ roll. They don’t care much for sex or drugs.”
