Merry Christmas People

What is up readers of this fine little blog of mine as you know it's Christmas and Monday marks the top 5 tracks of the year which I am mondo excited about but today I'm spending some quality time with the family up here in the arctic tundra that is Montana but even with that I figured that I'd take the time to wish everyone a Merry Christmas from all of us.....you know I say that but it's really just me that does all the writing for this blog...whatever it's Christmas and I can't lie I kind of miss Kansas City a bit today so I figured I'd have a bit of that Kansas City love up here by posting what's the second best Christmas track of all time a little local act known as Shadow Rabbits wonderfully catchy rendition of the awkward holiday classic that is your mom being a cheating who....I MEAN.....it's I saw Mommy Kissing Santa Clause people and this bands wonderful kind of surf rock tone that they put on it is utterly infectious once that bass line kicks in and helps perfectly balance some excellent vocals and really seems to of finally convinced me to enjoy a Christmas song for the first time since...I don't entirely remember when but it's great and this band has some quality releases you can download FOR FREE! also there's a pretty dope video of it on Youtube.

SO yeah happy holiday's I can't wait to show some special thanks to the 5 bands that made my favorite songs of the year and give reason as to just why this town has been the best thing to me this year but you'll have to wait to read that dose of kindness but until then get fucked up and don't try to get too annoyed with your family and why not download this track with maybe a little donation if you want to be nice.

Happy holiday's to all you lovely people I think I'm a go eat some Chinese food and get my drank on...

Sam's Top 25 of 2012: #1



Anyway-Cee-Lo Green

You know it was about this time maybe before last year that I first heard this song and while I will say it’s utter blasphemy to include it on this list let alone at the top spot let me make note way back at day 1 where and I quote:

                “Now by the best tunes I’ve heard this year I mean that they had to have come out sometime between late 2011,”

That would in theory not only allow this tune the ability to be eligible but with this being you know Sam’s Song of the day I’d figure it’d be pretty damn obvious that I’d include a tune that I’ve found and used every conceivable excuse to mention in any particular post that’s come about and as such also find a way to include it on the best of list this year so with that in mind let me give you a brief reasoning as to why this song towers above all others.

Ah Cee-Lo how your ability to not only record the best collection of throwback jams amazes me but the fact that you recorded a song that’s like Discovery-era Daft Punk with all its hyper disco themed instrumentals and some lyrics that take sweet sweet liberty in being able to use the wonderfully silly to the fact that we’ll dance to anything you’ve made a song that’s every wonderful thing about being a child in the fact that it’s the most simple tune and it just works in every way, no over complicated themes here just the fact that Cee-Lo loves his woman and knows she feels the same even if he’s one smooth ass lady killin’ son of a biscuit eating bulldog, and for making the most wonderful of wonderful pop songs I’ve heard all year and for making it stay as wonderfully awesome 12 months later I salute you.

The end of the world couldn’t stop this amazing bunch of songs so I can only hope next year continues the hype those are my top 25 cuts of the year, happy holiday’s to everyone and maybe just maybe I can give ya some decent filler as I go give my mother a call.


OH yeah and on a smaller note MERRY CHRISTMAHAUNAKWANZIKA!!!!
