Music: Happy (anti) Valentine’s Day from TNG!


I won’t plug tonight’s party too much (that will come later today,) but I did want to post my absolute favorite love song, the “Stop Making Sense” version of Talking Heads’ “Naive Melody.” If you watch long enough, you’ll see why I almost titled this post “I love lamp.”

And to be fair, I’ve posted the world’s most depressing love song below the fold. If you have a better suggestion for your favorite love song or mopiest broken heart song, please leave a comment.

Lou Reed’s “Caroline Says II,” which is like “Stephanie Says” for the suicidal, contains these immortal lines:

“Caroline says/As she gets up off the floor/You can beat me all you want to/But I don’t love you anymore.”

Its probably the most depressing song off of “Berlin,” one of histories most depressing albums. To be fair, the next two songs show Caroline having her kids seized by the government and killing herself, but this one’s got a nicer melody. Enjoy!

    with the possible exception of the boom box and psycho killer, this is the absolute best part of stop making sense. and it has lots of good parts.

    This is the best part, but the entirety of “What A Day That Was” is a close, close second. I’m really partial to Slippery People too.
