[via Circadian Shift ] Bubblegum Machine posts 2 MP3s a week, and their criteria are: “If it’s ever been on K-Tel or Ronco, it’s in. If it features hand
claps, cow bells, syrupy orchestration, walls of sound, wrecking crews,
sha-la-las, toothy teen idols or candy-based metaphors for carnal acts,
it’s in.”
Tom Jones singing Ring of Fire? Yes, please! [3 MB MP3 download]
Ever wondered what the theme from Hawaii 5-0 would sound like if it had lyrics and Sammy Davis Jr. sang it? Wonder no more [2MB MP3 download].
Ever been working on a project on your computer and were so deep into
the “flow” that you forgot to save your work? Then been hit by a power
outage or system error forcing you to reboot? Then you know what Macarthur Park [7MB MP3 download] — the unexplainable and overwrought pop hit sunch by Richard Harris in his overly eeee-loooo-seeeee-dated style — is all about:
All that sweet cream icing flooooowing doooooown
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don’t think that I can take it
Because it took so long to bake it
And I’ll never have the recipe agaaaaaaaaaaaaain!
Forget the Donna Summer version; this is the real deal, baby!
There are 74 weeks’ worth of MP3s on the site. Download, and enjoy the pure pop cheesiness!

[this is good]
Although, the title of the Hawaii Five-O theme briefly made me think of the theme to My Two Dads. *shudder*
The link’s wrong — it should be .net, not .com… 🙂

Whoops. What I meant was: .com doesn’t seem to have the tracks, but they’re all on .net. Sorry about that. 🙂
