FMD: 9/5/14
I've been to Canada and back. Their accent seems a lot closer to Minnesotan than, say, Texan does.
Muchmusic was celebrating 30 years and showed its "100 greatest videos" off and on.
I caught bits of that. I was surprised it wasn't all Barenaked Ladies and Kardinal Offishall. Whenever things showed up that seemed unlikely to count among "10,000 greatest videos", the only explanation we could ever figure out was that it was Canadian.
I never did see "Northern Touch".
Here are two new music videos that I liked in part:
Zola Jesus, Peaking Lights.

I know these are late, but having done them all year, I wanted to do the last one, too. We'll have players of the month for August at some point as well.
