From The End Of The World

From The End Of The World

I'm getting ready to hit 1500 plays for E.L.O. since I've been using last.fm. The song will be Evil Woman…unless my iTunes crashes before One Summer Dream finishes playing.

Track Listing: Freeman, One Good Reason, Honestly, Overdose, I'll See You There, Tammy, Harry Lee, Feather, Stand Up Man, Comfort Home, Ever Want Me To, Catch Fire

I make no bones about it…I'm a fan of The Connells. I have been a fan since 1989, when I first heard Fun & Games. With very few exceptions, I love all of their songs. They are one of the few bands I can listen to over and over again without getting burned out. I have seen them live more than any other band and I probably wore out two or three concert…

Today has been non-stop music from The Connells, with a brief pause to listen to (and review) George Huntley's "Brain Junk."

I remember my t-shirts. I had three different designs and I wish they were still around…even if they wouldn't fit right now. My favortite one was the one with the album cover from "Fun & Games" on it. I actually wore out two of those. The next one would be the one with the colored silhouettes on it. I had two of those…with different colored wording on the back. The other one was weird and had puppet/mask faces on…

I have a really hard time deciding who my favorite band of all time is. If I'm backed into a corner I'll usually say Electric Light Orchestra and that's probably fairly accurate. From time to time Rush and King's X will climb near the top of the list as well. However, as I get older I'm really starting to believe that Crowded House and The Connells are probably tied for second place right behind E.L.O. I don't know that any band will ever take that spot…there are just too many memories and too many great songs.

The Connells were hitting…

I don't know what it is…but when I pop in Dillon Fence's "Rosemary" or The Connells' "Fun & Games"…I just feel like hopping in the car, rolling the windows down, having a couple of beers and hitting the beach.

My Recently Listened To chart hasn't recorded anything in over a day and I've been listening to music constantly. I wonder what the deal is?
