Japanese Cover of Come on Eileen

Alright so I said I might talk about the State of the Union address, well gotta say i missed a decent amount of it because of HW and a shower, I saw about 1/2 an hour though. Nothing special, mostly what you would expect. Nothing too offensive, nothing too conservative(from what i saw). I believe Bush is trying to come off as less harsh to polish up the image of his presidency. He even said earlier in the year that comments like "Bring it on!" were a bit much(he seems to have a knack for hindsight). Oh well, I'm waiting until 2006 when I can try and put people who represent me into office.

Political bit 2: A bill is currently in Ottawa(Canada's Capital) to legalize gay marriage through the whole of Canada, 8 of Canada's 13 providences already have legal gay marriage. The bill is currently at a cross roads, with 139 in support, 118 opposed, 49 undecided. A slight majority of Canadians also support the bill. If this passes I'll be happy that another country decides that every one of their citizens deserves the same rights.

Onto the cover story. I was checking out this CD review of this Japanese rock group called Nil, mostly rock n' roll/punk rock kind of stuff. Pretty solid band I'd say. They decided to make a CD of 80's covers. On this CD they put the magic which is "Come on Eileen" by Dexy's Midnight Runners. The english may be a bit scewed but it still rocks. EDIT: Got the full song, it's good, his voice is so right. *Getting down with himself* It won't be around forever, get it ASAP, if you'd like to.
Love that lead singer's voice
