Brand New Key

[I’m getting nowhere with wordpress, so here’s a fun distraction post.]

It’s a short list but there are some songs which I like but which also cause folks to break out in hives. Among them, is “Brand New Key”. I don’t care what anyone thinks, it’s sweet. Anyway, the artist “Melanie” has died and I’d like to honor her memory (and/or torture you with an earworm).

Comic geniuses “Kids in the Hall” seized upon “Brand New Key” as an ideal post-apocalypse torture:


Another song on my list is “Vehicle” by “Ides of March”. I think it’s a damn fine song with a rocking beat and lots of brass. Mrs. Curmudgeon says it’s a skeevy stalker’s anthem. Can it be both?
