This is sort of like the, "What are you listening to right now?" thread, but this one is for you to post the very first song you listened to TODAY -- this could be the song that you listened to first thing after getting your ass out of bed, played in the head while showering, shaving, taking a big fat dump, having a douche, etc., heard on the radio during your morning commute, listened to on your MP3 player during your morning jog or dog walk, or heard as 'elevator muzak' on your way up to your 47th floor office.

ugh... I use a local radio station to wake up with so I get local traffic and weather. Today I was serenaded by Rod Stewart singing "Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?" I like Van Morrison's version much better.

Zax from the loader, crack, and trainer from the Commodore 64 computer video game, "Wasteland" from the late-1980s.
I used to listen to this zax in the mornings when I had the day shift tending bar at the now-defunct http://seattlehistory.org/blog/2011/08/a-beacon/#comment-1250" rel="nofollow - as it helped to get my ass awake.

This is from the Walking Dead promo I heard this AM. It's a version of CCR's Bad Moon Rising, done by Mourning Ritual. I like it for a few seconds at a time, but it gets tiresome pretty quickly. I think they tried too hard to make it sound evil.

Wow, that was awful!!!
Sounds like a guy who just woke up with a sore throat reading the weather forecast out of the newspaper.
What passes for musical talent nowadays.....

^ If I wake up with the TV on, I'm hearing music first thing. If not, I'll hear music soon enough when I log onto one of my online radio stations.
Right now, I'm listening to a vocal version of Cast Your Fate to the Wind by Shelby Flint. I prefer the James Gang version.

I just looked at one of the Walking Dead websites about this song. Seems no one likes it. Ominous lyrics + ominous music = overkill, sometimes.
I really wanted to like it upon hearing it for a few seconds the first time, but it goes nowhere---just the same slow pace and pseudo-Tom Waits voice throughout.

Zax from the loader, crack, and trainer from the Commodore 64 computer video game, "Dominator++" from the late-1980s.
When I wasn't listening to the zax from the C=64 computer video game Wasteland (which I used to listen to in the mornings when I had the day shift tending bar at the now-defunct <a href="http://seattlehistory.org/blog/2011/08/a-beacon/#comment-1250" target="new">Six Eleven Tavern</a> -- before my coffeepot finished perking) I used to listen to this as it helped to get my ass awake.

^^^ It was a commercial for Luvs brand http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=disposable+plastic+baby+toliets" rel="nofollow - (disposable diapers) from...o I dunno...five or so years ago.
The song went like:
♫All you need is Luvs.♫
♫All you need is Luvs.♫
♫All you need is Luvs Luvs,♫
♫All you need is Luvs!♫
And it was sung to the tune of the Beatles song, "All You Need is Love". :-/

This morning it was that godamned Honey Nut Cheerios song. Pure torture till I could get to the car and flush my mind of this melodic vomit.
Wasn't there a thread about the grudge match?

That damn "Welcome to the new age" song, actually titled "Radioactive." You're bound to have heard it in commercials, TV shows, newscasts, trailers, something recently:

HEY! HEY! Them's fighting words! The Stones still matter!
By the way - woke up to The Bee Gees "How Deep Is Your Love" which made me want to lounge in bed a few more minutes. "Jive talking" would have gotten me up a little faster!

Speaking of "when they mattered"---the Bee Gees! I preferred all their 60s hits over their disco-era hits.

The Bee Gees "Stain' Alive" - local radio station is running a contest for Barry Gibb tickets so they're playing LOTS of Bee Gees. I wish they'd play their earlier stuff.
And no, I'm not calling into the radio station at 5:30 AM.

Unknown track (live performance) by Cat Piss Brain Rot
I disn't listen to the entire song, so the first song that I listened to in whole today was:
Zax from the Commodore Amiga computer demo, "Hardwired" by the Amiga computer demo group, "Crionics and the Silents".
