"Healer," by Torche.
Reader Jordo:Think QOTSA's "Go w/ the Flow" with a gay lead singer. Torche's whole catalog is riff-tastic.
I can get on board with that. This is legitimately good shit. MOAR TORCHE PLEEZ.
Almost, but not quite, as awesome as the Huckabee endorsement (which, really, was the best thing ever).
That's awesome - I thoroughly endorse anything that brings more Torche to the world. But the statement about it being Go With the Flow with a gay lead singer is utterly asstastic. I mean, yes, I know that he is gay, but how does that have anything to do with how the damn song sounds? It's like when there's a woman playing anything in a band and people say that "she's a great <type of instrument> player... for a chick." I try not be the knee-jerk fly-off-the-handle type, but this seriously annoys me.
That said, I suppose his sexuality is pushed a bit to the forefront with the song "Kiss Me Dudely." (also one of the best song titles ever). Now that I think about it, that would make an amazing pregame song.
EDIT: this also reminds me of a story that a friend of mine told me about when he played high school football. Apparently, when they were all lined up for the snap or the throw or whatever that thing is when they all crouch down and face each other (YES, I KNOW - I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT SPORTS), he would start singing the jingle for the Barbie Dream House just loud enough that the guy opposite him could hear it. It was his secret weapon. Apparently, it never failed to utterly freak out the person on the opposing team.
