I’ve been keeping this song in the back of my mind, for a while, as a possible T&N. Pretty much everyone I know, in my peer group, loves the Pixies. LOOOOVES the Pixies. I wanted to use this song, in particular, because it’s the song a 15 year old Louise heard in some Scottish dance club that made her an instant Pixies fan.
Sunday, Louise, Tessa, KK and I went to see LoudQuietLoud at the SIFF. So it seemed like a good time to do a Pixies Then and Now. By the way, if you love the Pixies, Frank Black, or even music in general, it’s a very good film. Playing at a film festival near you!
Gigantic – Pixies
Wil, who knows everything about Frank Black and the Pixies, gave this song to me. I think it’s particularly delightful the way they sing “gig-antic.”
Gigantic – Wakusei
And the Reel Big Fish? Well, that’s just for me, because they make me happy.
Gigantic – Reel Big Fish
Just so you know, my little boys favorites posts are the “Then and Now” ones… for 18 months (almost) the kid likes good music! I can’t take the headphones away from him… and when he sees your banner… he grabs for them…
Oh, and (pinching him) he also wants to get an ant update.
THAT? is the cutest thing i’ve ever heard!! i’ve posted a little movie [silent] just for the ant fans.
