Neil Young: Dirty, Old, and Manly
1. Neil Young, “Dirty Old Manâ€
Following “Southern Man†and “Old Man,†this new track completes Neil Young’s song trilogy about men who’ve made questionable life choices. [Stereogum]
2. Buck 65, “Watch the Birdâ€
If Tom Waits had been Canadian, a hip-hop fan, and sorta annoying, he’d probably be recording songs like this by now. [Get Weird]
3. Nick Lowe, “I Trained Her to Love Me†(live)
Rarely is misogyny this tuneful — or unsubtle! [Culture Bully]
4. Kanye West, “A Million and One Questionsâ€
Kanye improves on Jay-Z track. Now if only he’d do the same with “Blue Magic†and Kingdom Come. [Nah Right]
5. Ted Leo, “That’s Entertainment†(live Jam cover)
Ted changes the words to reference New Jersey radio D.J.’s and podcasts. No, we don’t know why. [You Ain’t No Picasso]
