I Turn My Camera On
February 12, 2008
This is the very first (and hopefully not even close to last) post of the Tunatunes blog. What is the purpose of this blog, you ask? It is to give you, the listener, exactly one song every day, and maybe explain a bit about the song. What kind of songs, you ask? Indie rock, alternative rock, some more Indie, a bit of classic rock, and finally some more rock. There will be no rap, R & B, jazz, hip-hop, country, or other such music (unless I change my mind). How will you get the songs? Free online file storage, it’s a miracle. I will post a link, you will click on the link, and BAM! You will be listening to the song. Now that I’ve answered your questions, it is on to the very first song.
Song: I Turn My Camera On
Artist: Spoon
Album: Gimme Fiction
Link: I Turn My Camera On
Genre: Indie Rock
Mood: dynamic, upbeat, bouncy
Description: Spoon, at least for the moment, is my absolutely favorite band in the whole wide wide world. So I choose to start this blog with one of my very favorite songs from Spoon. It’s sung as only Britt Daniel (and maybe Mick Jagger) can do, in a crazy mock falsetto. Add to that a incredibly simple melody, and you get an incredibly awesome addictive song about a camera. Why a camera, who knows?
