I love the Phineas and Ferb music. It's well-written, and in most episodes brilliantly funny. Are you listening to the show soundtrack or the movie one (which isn't quite as good, but still has a few gems)?
When I saw the Moz in concert last summer, there were 2 songs I hoped he would do the most. He did neither of them. This was #1 on my list. It's a forever feel-good song for me despite the creeper lyrics. that last "aaaaaaaaaah let me in" gets me every time!
The only song he did from his early 90s heyday was TOMORROW. From the 80s he did MEAT IS MURDER and EVERY DAY IS LIKE SUNDAY. Everything else was from more recent times that I wasn't familiar with. I was disappointed but still glad I went, how often will Morrissey come to Memphis, after all?
Dear mid-twenties matlock of summer 1997, grab that bottle of Sutter Home and that pack of Marlboro Lights and hide in that little apartment because real life is coming at you soon.

Been listening to a lot of new stuff in the truck lately. New "rock" station that plays a lot of stuff like Cage the Elephant and Artic Monkeys. No idea who most of them are, but some good stuff.

Yeah, I;d have to agree with that, although some of my favs come later on. But hey, since Sparks got to kiss Jane Wiedlin, I'm through with cool places. In fact I'm through with being cool. Just like these guys...

As teens, a couple of the guys from Devo were in a garage band with fellow Ohioan Chrissie Hynde. Here's a song from her recently released first solo album that shows she's still got it:
