Hyper Crush – Sex & Drugs
In an effort to traumatize my sisters kids, I played this song as an educational resource. Would they be conflicted viewing their uncle bounce around and grooving madly, rapping passionately like a Karaoke vet, all while preaching being virtuous human beings?
Prince – Raspberry Beret
Moms had a plan, no more video games, no TV, no Prince and worst of all, no going outside to get beat up. How come this spelling thing warranted me having dedicated time to work solely on my pursuit of the English language?
The Prodigy – Funky Shit (LIVE)
