Climate Change is cooking much of the country with record heat so this weekend’s music thread is meant to send cool thoughts to our friends who are suffering through it.
Tunes about cool things or cool music is what we’re pouring over the rocks this weekend.
Cold as Ice – Foreigner
Cool – West Side Story
Take Me to the River – Talking Heads
Fire and Ice – Pat Benatar
The Summer Wind – Frank Sinatra
In the Heat of the Night
Velvet Underground, “Cool It Down”
A very cool song about the heat of FEVER…
Ladies and gentlemen, may I present… Ms. Peggy Lee:
Buddy, it has been cool this weekend here in Portland. We could use a little Fever. No one can sing that song right but Peggy Lee. Thank you for posting it!

Dr.Dre ft. Snoop Dogg – Still Dre
I’m just throwing this into the mix cuz I think it’s a “cool” song. Jane’s Addiction, “Been Caught Stealing”
Their Mountain Song is epic
Badass!!
Love Jane’s Addiction. I miss all the angst bands of the 90’s. Sure there are a few now like Dope and Drowning Pool but most of them whine or are just crap and have no melodic value. Worst of all it seems like hate metal has been growing.
They’ve found that angsty music comes back in cycles, when the economy is strong, and peppy happy music in sour times. It makes sense. As such, I’m really hoping for a rebound economically to see a rebound musically. There’s a difference between whiny, abrasive and introspective, and raw.
Jane’s Addiction – Jane Says
