Sure, the internet has made it easier than ever for musicians to share their talents… but what happens when the “musicians” don’t actually have “talent”? Has the invention of YouTube made it too easy for no-talent hacks to make a few bucks? How else would “Lady” be even partially known? And how hypocritical do I sound? These questions and more, answered with this edition of “A Dose of Buckley”:

A Dose of Buckley #53 – Rap-Dances

What can I say, maybe I’m getting soft in my old-age, as I approach the big 3-0 mark, but once in a while I do a rant for the fans. Not to say I don’t hate rap-dances, I absolutely do, but there are other topics I’d probably like to talk about first… however, the small cult following I’ve gained over the last little while has been wanting me to talk about some of these songs and the absolutely ridiculous dances that go along with them for some time, so consider this a nice gesture for the fans who’ve patiently waited as I’ve talked about Canadian Politics, the Canadian Postal service, Mark Zuckerberg, etc… all along wondering “when the hell is he going to just make fun of music again, we only subscribed because of your list of worst songs of 2010, that’s what we want to hear more about!” So here… don’t say I never did anything for you.

What other websites are really updating on the long weekend? NONE OF THEM! That’s who! Buckley however doesn’t really observe July 4th (seeing as I’m a Canadian and all), so I figured why not give my American fans something to do besides get drunk and shoot roman candles at each other (you can do that later tonight).

This week at A Dose of Buckley, it’s the 8th installment of “Advice No One Asked For”. I try and help a woman choose sides in an issue that I didn’t even know still existed past 1972.

Hey, you know there’s a whole website full of this stuff, right? Check it out at A Dose of Buckley
