My Music Monday

Maybe I'm being defiant about this head-achey thing.  Yeah, I've had down-time with it, which has been grand, but as I type this, the ache is running on high gear.

Yayy me.

So you'd think I'd be selecting Olivia Newton-John's "Have You Never Been Mellow" just to soothe the soul.  But I'm not - hence the defiant nature.  ...by the way, Pet does an awesome cover of "Mellow".  Maybe I'll post that next week.

No, this song has been playing in my head lately, so I broke it out, listened to it and remembered how much I like it.

Queens of the Stone Age's "No One Knows" from 2003. How can this song be 10 years old?

Besides just being a good rocking song, I love to see Dave Grohl behind the drum kit.  He is a great band leader for the Foo Fighters, but the man does know how to drum and I miss that about him some times.

I also think the guitarist / vocalist, Josh Homme is kind of hot.  What?  Just me?

It is a great song to work out to, be it lifting or on the treadmill. It gets me moving.

"No One Knows" doesn't really make my headache better or worse, but one would think that a harder rock song would make your head pound.  I have found no rhyme or reason that sets off my worse spells. ....but it ain't Queens of the Stone Age.

I watched this video yesterday at your suggestion and now every page I visit on the web has an ad for buying this CD. I've never seen/or noticed anything like it.

I've loved this song since the first time I heard it.

Such a great song. QotSA will be here in my area of Arkansas October 8, but Grohl won't be on tour with them. :(

And Joshua always reminds me of Shaggy from Scooby Doo for some reason.

But Nick Oliveri (guitarist) seems like some serious rough trade. ;-)
