Two things that I miss

I guess that saying at the end of the post that I will try to write more often here will sound stupid! But I promise I will! :)

anyway, I guess that I am forgiven cause I am the Lazy House Cat....

Truth is that I missed writing something here. So I decided to write about two things that I miss... Here it comes:

CD SINGLES:


I totally loved buying CD singles! They have so many things that you can love. First of all you didn't have to buy the whole record of that band that has only one good song! You would buy the CD single and would be happy! Another thing I loved about them was the live versions that were included. I am a fan of live recordings so I really liked it when I cold find some. The other cool thing about them were the B-sides that were not included in the album, that would be really cool too. The only thing I hated about the CD Singles were the remixes. Usually they were really bad. I really hated these singles that had the original song and after that 5 different bad remixes of it.

Extra love: I would give the CD singles some extra love for the acoustic versions that you could find in many of them. 99% of them were really good!

I don't think it would be a bad idea for the record labels to start producing them again since more and more people don't buy albums anymore.

Some bands you might remember by their singles(mostly from the 90's-early 00's):

Nine days: This band had that one big hit but they have realesed many albums and have been active for almost  16 years. They have many nice songs.


Lifehouse: We are a rock band but we got feelings...


Toploader: Their biggest hit is a cover from a 70's song. But it's really good and relaxing. Nice work they recently got back together.


Spin Doctors: Amazing band too bad they are mostly known for having this song... The singer used to perform with the Moldy Peaches! How cool is that?



FRIENDS:


The TV show of course... It would be really lame to write about how I will miss my friends while I am crying. "FRIENDS" was one of the few sitcoms that didn't have one bad episode. They were all amazing. I know that  saying that I will miss "FRIENDS" isn't that original cause everyone's missing this show but... come on! I think that the show was a success because it makes you feel like you are part of the gang! It made you feel like you know these guys. One time when I was still in school I watched "FRIENDS" DVD's for 5-6 hours non stop. After that I thought that Ross would come visit me and tell me all his Dinosaur stories while playing the keyboards with his wacky sounds. Intergalactic high fives for the titles of each episode, they actually helped you to track down the episode that you want to watch!

Extra love: Everyone would give the "FRIENDS" some extra love for their cool guests. We had the opportunity to watch Bruce Willis cry, Ben Stiller being all loud and rude and Danny De Vito as a stripper! (the last one isn't one of my stupid jokes...)

I guess it's great when a show stops at the peak of it's success and I think that's why we all miss "FRIENDS" but I think that they could easily make at least two more interesting seasons instead of making that "FRIENDS" spin off "JOEY" that wasn't that good. Let's get our fingers crossed for a "FRIENDS" movie!
Is Phoebe Buffay the queen of Anti folk?


 Your's truly,
The lazy house cat
