Foster The People - Houdini - Performance and Lyrics

Foster The People  - Houdini - Performance Music Video and Lyrics

Music, Music, Music, let's get back to the freaking music! As a music focused blog I have been lagging lately. News has been too good! This is definitely one of Foster The People's better songs. Actually now that I think of it it's prolly their best song ever. "Pumped up kicks" that was ehhhh, and then the other ones just don't have that hook or that appealing sound that this one does. I found myself able to run to this sweet and tasty jam even though it doesn't feel fast paced or up beat. It is hard to put into words but this baby rocks. I tried creating a Spotify radio station based of this song and what an epic FAILLLLLL. Spotify kept bring up music that was just not in line with what I thought  would be appropriate for this song. Overall I think this band is a great group of talented musicians and I would like to see them come out with some more bangers like "Houdini" from their album Torches.

Check out the inspiration for this song right here. Under writing and recording.

Here are the lyrics:
"Houdini"

Rise above, gonna start the war!
What you want, what you need, what'd you come here for?
Well, an eye for an eye and an 'F' for fight
They're taking me down as the prisoners riot

Got shackles on, my words are tied
Fear can make you compromise
Fasten up, it's time to hide
Sometimes I wanna disappear

Yeah oh

When I feel kinda bad and don't want to stress
Pass it off on a better day
Well you got what you want, and what you never knew
Perfect gift from me to you

Yeah yeah yeah

Got shackles on, my words are tied
Fear can make you compromise
Fasten up, it's time to hide
Sometimes I wanna disappear

Yeah oh

(It's up to your ability)
You never knew what I could find
What would come when we realize
I don't want to compromise

(It's up to your ability)
Yeah I'm scared but I disappear
Running around before it corners you
I can't go because my life's a wreck

(It's up to your ability)
I know that you want me
'Cause it's simple to see of my ability

(It's up to your ability)
Yeah you're undecided
Yeah it's the right feeling
Yeah I don't wanna runaway

You gotta focus on your ability
Focus on your ability
Now focus on your ability
Focus on your ability

Gain again what they want to steal
Gain again what they want to steal
Then gain again what they want to steal
Gain again what they want to steal

Doritos® - Fashionista Daddy -- Crash the Super Bowl 2013 Finalist Maybe I am a crumudgeon because I hate this commercial that is a finalist for the 2013 Superbowl Commercials(and everyone else in the world seems to like it, especially women) but it just makes me feel sick. I hate how the dad eats that Dorito in like the gayest way possible with smudged makeup. I think all the dads across America, and especially middle America are gunna hate this ad if it plays. It makes him look like he is the prison fairy and he was mouth banged by sixteen inmate. He gets a Dorito for being a good sport and taking all sixteen loads. Here ya go sport, wash it down with a Dorito you little slut. Then his friends come over? Why do they head straight to his daughters room? Ok here is the scenario. You and a few friends roll over to you buddies house to watch football, you walk into the house, no one seems to be home, you don't go to the kitchen, you don't sit one the couch and wait for your

Laura Branigan - Self Control (Official Video)  80's classic I, I live among the creatures of the night! Ok, Laura Branigan , not only are a weirdo 80's hottie you make some kick ass music and I want to roam the night with your hot young 80's body.  This video is classic 80's music creeper weirdo status (I think Branigan has got some lez in her) .  I wonder what I would be like to be in college during the 80's and listening to songs like this at parties and clubs. I mean how do you dance to this stuff. I love it but I cant really dance to it, I just start playing air guitar and jumping around. How does that V for Vendetta guy control himself. aha I found this song and sweet music video over Christmas break when I was asking my mom what kind of music was playing in the clubs when they would go out in their late 20's. Well, my mom was 24 my dad was 28. After numerous stories about Studio 54 and the secrets to beating the line to get in, my mom fina

The IRS Is Hiring Armed Agents To Investigate The Middle Class

  IRS poised to get $80 billion in new funding over the coming decade if the Inflation Reduction Act passes The Internal Revenue Service’s operations are catching heat as the tax agency is in line for an $80 billion budget boost under the Democrats’ proposed spending plan — and now there’s intense attention being focused on IRS workers who actually pack heat. It started as criticism from Republican leaders that the tax-collecting agency would bring on 87,000 new employees to “target regular, everyday Americans” with the $80 billion earmarked for the IRS in the Inflation Reduction Act reconciliation bill, which looks poised to become law. That’s a “ misleading ” claim, according to the Associated Press. The bill passed Friday in a  220-207 vote  of the House of Representatives and is now headed to President Joe Biden’s desk to be signed into law. In recent days there’s been an online stir over job postings for IRS special agents who carry guns as part of their work with the IRS’s Crimin
