The Animals - House Of The Rising Sun

I absolutely love this song, it was one of the first songs I ever learnt to sing the lyrics in they're entirety, thanks to an awesome primary school teacher who would play guitar and have the whole class sing along to tunes by The Animals, The Beatles and Bob Dylan.

In fact I can't ever remember him teaching us anything besides soccer,singing songs, and doing the occasional spelling bee. Either way, he was one of my greatest teachers!

Back to the song... Eric Burdon's bluesy voice is kick-arse, and the steely gaze he gives throughout the entire clip lets you know (even though he's wearing a suit) he could kick your arse if you step out of line.

They're a bunch of smooth looking bad-asses!

Foals - Blue Blood

Today's song is brought to you by the soon to be married Mr White.

Step aside Colin F...FFF..Firth this kid deserves an Oscar!

I love the film clip and the passion shown by the kid, he's really getting into the song, while everyone else acts normal, it's almost like he's imagining that he is a rock star. 

Odly the only other person who really seems interested in the performance is the female teacher who seems completely turned on. I've always wondered how to turn your hot teacher on and this kid has nailed it. 

(Start practicing your honeymoon rock star pose Whitey!)
