I wear my sunglasses at night because I have sensitive eyes. 1984's "Sunglasses at Night" is the only thing anybody cares about from Corey Hart. This song has some really good guitar. It's a medium paced song that works. The real kicker in the music is the panning keyboard (which turns from epic to annoying … Continue reading “Sunglasses at Night” Corey Hart Review
The best fish fry in Western New York is at Athena's in Tonawanda.
"Science!" Thomas Dolby's 1982 hit "She Blinded Me With Science" is another one of those quirky 80s songs that walks the fine line between being a serious piece and being a joke. Nobody knows anything about this song outside of the old man screaming "She blinded me, with SCIENCE!" Why even dig deeper into the … Continue reading “She Blinded Me With Science” Thomas Dolby Review
Today I'm reviewing a Niagara Falls staple: Mr. Ventry's pizza. Ventry's is a thinner style on the Niagara Falls spectrum: not as thin as Buzzy's, but thinner than Goodfellas. While Ventry's standard pizza is good, a cold slice of their traditional style is fantastic. Mr. Ventry's recently opened a new location near the airport on … Continue reading Mr. Ventry’s Pizza Review
It's goofy, but okay. After the Fire's 1982 cover of "Der Kommissar" is a bunch of English people singing about Germans (or maybe Austrians: Falco was Austrian.) This is one of those weird songs with a catchy chorus that just earworms into your head. Musically, the song is a repetitive guitar/keyboard piece. Nothing spectacular about … Continue reading “Der Kommissar” After the Fire Review
Look What You Made Me Do is going to break the internet.
The Copperchef pan is surprisingly awesome.
Tense mall music at its finest Today's review is "Shout", the 1984 (85 in the US) single from Tears for Fears. This song is so good. Both lyrically and musically, the song is minimalist, yet still feels massive. The lyrics follow the same cryptic melancholy of most of Tears for Fears' hits from their Song from … Continue reading “Shout” Tears for Fears Review
Oui is the new line of yogurt from Yoplait, and it is actually incredible. The French-style yogurt is individual made within the jar it's packaged in. If that sounds pretentious, it is. This is not your standard yogurt. The texture is closer to a custard, and is insanely good. You would not guess this to … Continue reading Oui by Yoplait French Style Yogurt Review
The only Journey song I like. "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)", the 1983 song by Journey, is the only song by the band I like. *record scratch* That's right: I hate "Don't Stop Believing." Hate it with a passion. It's a dumb, overused song that has ended every middle school dance ever. Of course, "Separate Ways" is … Continue reading “Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)” Journey Review
