Nostalgic Nibble: Something Like You/Say It

One characteristic from my teenage years is the plethora of R&B and Pop music from a variety of boy bands and girl bands. No matter how much people hate on it, there will never be a time period like it ever again. N’Sync. 98 Degrees. Backstreet Boys. Spice Girls. Kai. Devotion. Innerlude. Hanson. SWV. All Saints….

SSB vs. Valvrave:The Liberator

  It’s been about 11 years or so since Gundam Seed first hit us with its “space drama giant robots destroying colonies” schtick, and Sunrise decided that we were lacking in that department, so they sent us Valvrave.  They realized early on that teenagers go with giant robots, just like Evangelion (we all know how…

An Upscale Casual Kinda Night

‘Twas another wonderful Wednesday night at The Office Bar in North Park, San Diego. Upscale Casual, my favorite San Diego ukulele band, brought with them the “sweet sounds of the islands to the mainland” once again. On this particular night, only three members of the band graced us with their island presence, but the band actually consists of four members: Jason…

I <3 SCANDAL

I’m a huge fan of K-On.  So naturally, I started gravitating back to J-pop once I really started getting into the series.  Along the way I heard about this group called SCANDAL.  Apparently, they got together in high school and started jamming out.  Then they started playing in clubs, and they…quite simply blew up.  You…

Super Spice Bros 2

This is the first time I’ve ever seen this YouTube video. I must say. I found it quite hilarious! Terry Crews + Old Spice + Super Mario Bros 2 = Super Spice Bros 2. I love the Old Spice commercials, and this mashup just takes it to another level. Mowtendoo YouTube user really loves his Terry Crews. All you Nintendo geeks will/must…

Game of Thrones Theme Song Violin Cover

So I hear that the third season of Game of Thrones is now underway. I have yet to watch an episode, but I hear it is really good. So for all my Game of Thrones geeks, if you haven’t seen this cover of the Game of Thrones theme song yet, here it is for your viewing…

To Be Loved

Another song on my Songza played that was the inspiration for this post. Jackie Wilson‘s “To Be Loved” as heard by Eddie Murphy, aka Akeem, in the classic movie Coming To America. Please tell me you all know this movie. I can’t classify myself as an anime geek just yet, but I can classify myself as a movie…

KARA celebrated their 6th anniversary….and Nicole is best.

KARA celebrate their 6th anniversary. Wait, they’re 6!?  Has it really been that long?  Well, congratulations KARA.  You’re the first K-pop group from DSP since Fin.K.L to capture the hearts and ******* of people around the world. Nicole tweeted, “Ding dong~ It’s our 6th anniversary!! Wow. Time flew by. It was a jam-packed six years, right? Like…

Harlem Shake By The Backstreet Boys

Um. The Backstreet Boys doing the harlem shake video was actually quite amusingly weird. Talk about cleverly creative. Oh no they didn’t go for the sexual appeal, legitimate dancing, or stupidly silly dancing. They went for the extremely off-the-wall-random-raise-your-eyebrows kind of video. I don’t know if it’s just because I grew up with the Backstreet Boys…
