Song Of The Day – Shiny Toy Guns (Rainy Monday)

I think that Shiny Toy Guns – “Rainy Monday” seems like a good choice for a very rainy Monday. Many of the Opening Day games so far have been delayed by rain. I think the Brewers/Cubs game should be a pretty good one. By the way, did anyone see the Nationals/Braves game last night? I was pretty impressed with the Nationals new ballpark, plus the walk-off in the bottom of the ninth is always a great way to start off a season and a new field.

Song Of The Day – Chris Cornell (Billie Jean)

American Idol’s David Cook just added some much needed juice to Chris Cornell’s solo career. Cornell’s solo album came out last year and it hasn’t sold very well. He was probably looking at a Soundgarden reunion tour, but Cook just sang Cornell’s version of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean.” I know, it’s like a version of a version of a version, but the only thing that matters is that Cook did an amazing job. Cornell should profit from this ’cause his version of “Billie Jean” is on his new album, “Carry On.”

I know all the judges on American Idol praised Cook for his originality and for “going out on a limb,” but listen to Cornell’s version, it’s not any different. Cornell actually sings the song much better, but don’t tell the normal 13-18 year old female watching Mr. Cook on “Idol.”

Here is Cornell’s version.

Song Of The Day – Escape The Fate (Not Good Enough)

Just by looking at a picture of Escape The Fate, one could come to a conclusion that they are a Motley Crue cover band. Their style is even more over-the-top than Avenged Sevenfold’s take on 80’s hair/fashion. Their album “Dying Is Your Latest Fashion” merges a few different genres. Some the tracks are hardcore, but about half of the record sounds pop-punk-screamo. It’s a good album if you are into any of those genres.

They need to buy pants a few sizes larger, I would probably feel more comfortable watching their videos. Their ‘boys’ must be screaming with every step they take.

Here is their video for “Not Good Enough”
