Because I'm stuck at home with my new friend "
Gout" and taking a break off Crisis Core:FFVII, I've decided to do my long delayed update of the blog and I'm starting off with a soundtrack from my favorite Wesley Wales Anderson film (because every film he has done is gold) which has a killer soundtrack as well that is oozing with subliminal messages telling you to "press repeat, press repeat" every time the record finishes, chock full of UK invasion bands (The Kinks, The Whoe, The Creation, Faces, Unit 4 + 2), Pop Gems (John Lennon's "Oh Yoko!", Cat Steven's "Here Comes My Baby") and of course, Mark Mothersbaugh (Devo, Badass MO'Fo who scored Pee wee's Playhouse/Pee Wee's Big Adventure, and RUGRATS especially the theme song).
Some songs on the film didn't make the cut like The Rolling Stones' "I Am Waiting" because the old farts rarely allow their material to appear on any soundtracks. I wonder how "Play With Fire" made it on The Darjeeling Limited's OST, prolly a lot of moolah plus Anderson's brilliance.
Thus, I conclude that Wes Anderson makes killer mixtapes, the kind you'd wish you could've made or you're friends with him irl so you'd prolly receive mixes with detailed and quirky artwork done by his hermano, Eric Chase Anderson, and a belated Happy Birthday to Mr. Wes Anderson, he turned 39 on the first of May.
