Top Ten Thoughts O' the Day, er..Week, er...MONTH...? (3-30-10)

So good to see you. I've missed you so.

10. I know it's been out for awhile, but I recently purchased the B-sides to My Chemical Romance's The Black Parade, which has three songs I've never heard on it. It's like Christmas.

9. Speaking of MCR, Mtv.com is doing something kind of nifty HERE. For the most part, I think the results are as they should be (MCR, Muse, 30STM, Coheed). There are a few puzzlers, however (Owl City beat out Gaslight Anthem? Seriously?) Anyway, you can vote for your favorite band. I enjoyed it.

8. One of the most creative music videos I've seen in awhile, and one of the most delightfully groovy/catchy songs in recent memory. OkGo - This Too Shall Pass...Here.

7. Final Fantasy XIII is great. I do miss the exploration, because they've created an amazing world, I just wish I could do more in it and be immersed even more.

6. This is a very cool version of one of my favorite songs. Really brings home the fact that the musicians in Tool are composers first, before they are a rock band. Or not. But I think it's cool.

5. If you are a Christian, and especially if you are NOT, you should read Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis. He is the single biggest spiritual mentor of mine. Heck, just read all of his stuff. It'll change your life, and your mind.

4. This music video is sweet action. Only two more weeks until Year of the Black Rainbow.

3. Getting all nine seasons of your favorite television show (The X-files) for dirt cheap - priceless. Or $45. Total.

2. I love this video. I didn't discover this on my own, but through another band's website. But I love this song, and the way they do it is so endearing. The girl's voice is beautiful, and the man complements her so well. There is such a sweet feel to this video, which makes me wonder if they are actually a couple. Hmm....The Civil Wars. Check them out.

1. The reality is always better than the dream.
