This week's Rice vs UTSA postgame theme song. Congratulations for UTSA stepping up just a smidge to beat a Rice team currently even worse than they are. Even I am a bit surprised we actually lost this one. But I don't see anything changing. Many years of more of the same as we keep coach Bailiff and probably another extension after we improve by a game or two next year, and he touts his success, while still a losing overall coach at Rice after 10 years. Amazing that we just won't fire him (or didn't years ago like it seems all of your schools would have with a head coach as bad as this one.) Welcome to today's Rice football; enjoy:

Iggy Pop - "The Endless Sea"
Oh baby, what a place to be
In the service of the bourgeoisie
Where can my believers be?
I wanna jump into the endless sea
Oh, oh, the endless sea
Oh, oh, the endless sea
I wanna jump into the endless sea
Let it wash all over me
Above us is a dirty sky
Full of youths and liquors
A little girl, a little guy
This air can't get much thicker
(Endless) Ooh, oh, the endless sea
(Endless) Oh, oh, the endless sea
(Endless) Oh, oh, the endless sea
(Endless) Let it wash all over me
And when you're tight for the rent
You think you're gonna break
But you know it's no damn good
Just one more phony on the take
You better go home, buddy
I really think
You better go home, buddy
You better go home, buddy
In the endless sea

Final Owls home game of this 2015 football season. Charlotte hung in there for a half. Good try in your first FBS season. Here's your theme for Rice's unsettling performance this year. prediction: more mediocrity for the Owls in the future as Bailiff returns again and again and again:

Well, back when rap was fun:
Artist: Biz Markie
Album: The Biz Never Sleeps
Track: "Just A Friend"
September 21, 1989 Cold Chillin' Records
The single was certified platinum on April 12, 1990. The song interpolates a sample of the 1968 song "You Got What I Need" recorded by Freddie Scott, whose basic chord and melody provided the base for the song's chorus and made it famous.

Great music, if a little naive in the lyrics (it turned out there were and still are Russians with nefarious motives--ask Putin; and the walls came down because we stood up to our enemies with strength and resolve back then instead of fearing offending them). Oh well, to be young and foolish.
RIP Micheal Been: August 20, 2010 1:11 a.m. EDT
(CNN) -- Michael Been of the 1980s alt-rock band The Call -- and father of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club's Robert Been -- died Thursday. He was 60.
The elder Been was on tour in Belgium as the sound engineer for Black Rebel Motorcycle Club when he died of a heart attack backstage, said publicist Juliana Plotkin.
The Call had several hits in the early 80s, including "The Walls Came Down" and "Let the Day Begin," and earned many notable musicians as fans along the way.
Among them were Bono and Peter Gabriel, both of whom contributed to The Call's albums.
In later years, Been played a key role in Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, said Plotkin -- who represents the band.
"Often referenced as their fourth member, Been spent countless hours in the studio acting in many roles from mentor and guide," she said.

sytema solar - yo voy ganao
i love these colombian groups. just added a couple by these guys to my playlist. i already had several from 'bomba estereo' and 'choquibtown' but just discovered these guys recently. i'd have to believe if you attended one of systema solar's shows it'd be a party.
Have you listened to the album he did with Ben Folds a few years back? Really kinda fantastic spoken-word-ish stuff, with cool Ben Folds musical things underneath.
Yes. I actually love the album he did with Ben Folds and have it as well. In his own weird way, he's pretty good at what he does. He has made a few more since, I believe, but I have not purchased them yet.
Here's one from the album you speak of:
Artist: William Shatner
Album: Has Been
Track: "You'll Have Time"
October 5, 2004 Shout! Factory Records
from Wiki:
Has Been (2004) is William Shatner's second musical album after 1968's The Transformed Man.
The album was produced and arranged by Ben Folds and most of the songs are co-written by Folds and Shatner, with Folds creating arrangements for Shatner's prose-poems, and features guest appearances from Joe Jackson (on a cover of Pulp's "Common People"), Folds and Aimee Mann (backup vocals on "That's Me Trying"), Lemon Jelly (on "Together"), Henry Rollins and Adrian Belew (on "I Can't Get Behind That"), and Brad Paisley (on "Real", which he wrote specifically for Shatner).
Henry Rollins also talks about the making of the song "I Can't Get Behind That" on his spoken-word album Talk Is Cheap Vol IV.
In 2007, a ballet called Common People, set to Has Been, was created by Margo Sappington (of Oh! Calcutta! fame) and performed by the Milwaukee Ballet. Shatner attended the première and had the event filmed. This footage became William Shatner's Gonzo Ballet, a feature film with a well received[by whom?] world première at the Nashville Film Festival on 17 April 2009. The documentary also features interviews with William Shatner, Ben Folds, and Henry Rollins.
