Spotify's new daily mixes is a nifty feature.

edit: to elucidate, unlike pandora that picks songs based on up-voting or my experience with apple where it just gave you things others liked, spotify seems to create mixes based on a few things:
1) tracks you've listened to
2) artists you've listened to (so other tracks by those artists)
3) similar artists to one's you've listened to.

Ends of creating mixes of songs that seem to work fairly well as it has a good underpinning of things you've listened to at some point. I wonder if it also takes into account tracks that you've skipped. :hmm:

The Who - Pictures of Lily

This might be the most romantic song the original lineup of The Who ever sang (you could even say that it was one of the most touching songs ever. ;))




(Yes, I know, "Can't Explain" is an actual love song.)


In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

I'm glad that Lady Gaga appears to have left the Scheisse era behind her.

So the Scorpions came up on my "Genius" playlist and I hit up the intertubes to see what they're up to these days.  A) Holy christ Klaus Meine and Rudolf Schenker are 68 years old and b) they still tour a lot (continuously?).  Unfortunately, they were just here in May, so I don't know if they'll ever make it back.

Is it me or do drums sound a bit like on Billy Jean?
