My Boys WON

Ok… So ‘nother tid bit about me.. I’m a University of Colorado Boulder Football fan… Can’t help but be when you spend 5 years in the CU marching band. CU Football is one of the few sports that I actually watch (aside from Men’s Gymnastics - but for a completely DIFFERENT reason! )..

So… At any Rate… CU beat CSU just now 43-35. Go BUFFS!

( Scores and Schedule are below - if you’re interested! )

Dance Music Origins

On the way to work the other day I was listening to Dance Mix CD # 847 (Actually think it was called “Circuit ‘99″ or something like that - but who can keep track) and was wishing I could find the original version of a couple of the songs.. There are a LOT of really cool dance mixes That are actually re-mixes of old cool songs. So this afternoon I dove into my CD collection and started ripping old CDs to put together a Remix Origins CD… Kind a fun and stupid.. This is what I’ve found so far:

• If You Could Read My Mind
  • Original: Gordon Lightfoot
  • Remix: Stars On 54: Ultra Naté, Amber & Jocelyn Enriquez
• What a Fool Believes
  • Original: The Doobie Brothers
  • Remix: Peter Cox
• Blue Monday
  • Original: New Order
  • Remix: Orgy
• California Dreamin’
  • Original: The Mama’s and the Poppas
  • Remix: High Jinkx
• American Pie
  • Original: Don McLean
  • Remix: Madonna
• Don’t Cry for me Argentina
  • Original: Rogers and Hammerstein
  • Remix: Madonna

There are others I like too - like a remix I heard of ‘Swingtown’ by The Steve Miller Band but the DJs mix them for parties and won’t give them out cuz they don’t have rights to them… I heard a mix of a song from the Lion King a few years back at the white party that was FLIPPIN AMAZING but the DJ won’t distribute it cuz Disney would kick his butt (I asked)…

Anyway… Guess being a music junkey and a geek leads to strange exercises like this. Kevin thinks i’m nuts.. But i’m keeping my eyes out for more. If you have any recommendations let me know!
