Musical Tarot Cards

Hey, gangbusters,

(That’s you.)

I’m still trying to figure out how to set a few things up for my next entry, but I still want to stay on schedule. So I’m going to go ahead and steal from today’s Ninebullets post and go for some musical tarot cards. I hope they’re in my favor…but given the subject matter of most of my music, I’m not too optimistic.

1. “Science Fiction/Double Feature (Reprise)” — Rocky Horror Picture Show

Who needs lyrics, anyway? I guess 2012 will be a life-changing (and sexually liberating?) adventure!

2. “This Town Tonight” — John Moreland


Screw frustrated ambitions. You have to live like you mean it. And as grad school and my grueling student teaching schedule amps up again, I’m glad I have John Moreland to tell me that.

3. “Angel in My View” — Rachael Sage


I’ll forgive the bastardized spelling of a great name. Duly noted: tell my lady I love her.

4. “See Willy Fly By” — Graham Parker With the Waco Brothers


Okay, 2012. Teach me I need to keep believing in the impossible.

5. “God Makes the Rain” — Cowboy Mouth


And a friendly reminder to avoid negative people and influences.

Hey! That wasn’t so bad! Maybe 2012 will beat the odds as well.

How’s your year looking?
