View Article  "Die, Die My Darling" - Misfits


I'll admit I had never even heard of this Misfits song until I came across Metallica's cover.  That sound you are hearing is any sliver of indie cred I might have had evaporating.

Oh, hell with it.  It's not like I ever had any indie cred or even cared.  Yes, I love Metallica's cover, but it is very faithful to the original.  So why wouldn't I dig that too?

Hear "Die, Die My Darling" on YouTube.

Hear Metallica's cover.

Wiki

This is part of a week-long series on songs about dying.

Haven't done a theme in a while, so here's a new one... I will post a week of songs about dying.

If I should happen to assume room temperature before this week ends, everything goes to my therapist.

Introduction
Some of my online cohorts at the Songfight community decided to create blogs to highlight songs they like. I am now doing it as well, because I am a total lemming.

Songfight is a weekly songwriting competition based on titles provided by the site's administrators. I post there under the handle "Albatross." Go check it out. It's a gas.
My Own Noise
Can't sing my way out of a wet paper bag, but I play a few instruments with varying degrees of proficiency. As such, sometimes I record my own music. You can hear it here.

New song: "Take Five" (Dave Brubeck Quartet cover)
