Today’s track “Monster” is a bit of awesome from our favorite B-52s frontman while he was doing some solo work on his album Fred Schneider & the Shake Society. Mr Schneider, I request…no I demand that you redo this video but be more honest with it (less ladies). I know that at the times it probably wasn’t PC to flaunt being gay (damned homophobic 1980s), but now that it’s 2010…you should show more pride by making this video as raunchy and flagrantly gay as you feel comfortable.

Don’t even hate on this song, you know that you want to get off our ass and shake it when you hear the B-52s sing “Love Shack”, it’s one of those songs that never gets old and can be played at ANY party. This is one of many great tracks off of their Cosmic Thing album which I remember being one of my first CDs to ever covet from my dad’s collection. Fred Schneider is especially FAB-YOU-LUSS in this video.

You didn’t think that I could just start the week of with Fred Schneider’s new group, The Superions, and not take it any further than that? WRONG! I think that I’m going to give you a whole week of Fred because the man fucking deserves your respect. Bow down and obey him! Today’s track is the opening track off of the B-52s first self titled album, but some of you youngins might remember it from Monsters vs Aliens, or even further back as the entrance music for The Spleen on Mystery Men.

Oh that wacky Fred Schneider, from the B-52s, is at it again. You can’t keep a great man like him down. He’s started his own new group called The Superions and today’s MCoM is the smash hit “Who Threw That Ham at Me?” that is essentially the story of a shoplifter who hoping to avoid getting caught claimed that a ham was thrown at them…instead of it falling out of their pants. Disco Garbagecan, take your lid off!

Don’t ever discount The Cardigans as a group just because of their Swedish roots. Many people wee ready to forget about them after the song ‘Lovefool’, that put them on the map. Most people never got into the album Gran Turismo, which was produced to the Nth degree and remains one of my top 100 albums of my lifetime. The track for today “Erase and Rewind” is a perfect example of the sound the band settled on after the success of their first album. It’s so good, it makes me want to go watch The Thirteenth Floor all over again.

Ever wonder who the guys behind the infamous “numa numa dance” are? Wonder no longer, the group behind the uber eurotrash “Dragostea Din Tei” are a trio known as O-Zone. This track is off the album DiscO-Zone, and I know this because…I bought the damned song on iTunes this week. At least you can now say that MediaWhoreNetwork has expanded your horizons a bit today.

Yup, another day, another Vengaboys track. This one should make you want to visit the magical South American land of beautiful women with excellent boobies, a gigantic Jesus statue, and more people with the last name of Silva than you can shake a stick at. Still on the tracks from The Party Album, this is “To Brazil”. Oh and if you’re a fan of mid 20th century music, you’ll recognize the tune they put the dance beat over almost immediately.

I dare you to NOT get up off your duff and start shaking your ass to today’s track. I liked hearing the Vengaboys yesterday so guess what, you get yet another track from the group. This one is off of the same album, but should be even more recognizable due to it being used in the Six Flags commercials (remember the ones with the dancing old guy?). I’m telling you, you need to get their first American release The Party Album, like right now from which you’ll find this as the first track “We Like to Party (The Vengabus)”.

I figure that there’s nothing better than hearing some shitty vocal techno on a Monday following a weekend of binge drinking and bad eating. Right as this is going up this morning, I’m just now arriving at work feeling like hell because of how early it is. One thing that is assured to make me feel better now matter what condition I’m in is the Vengaboys, I could lose both of my legs tomorrow and still get a smile on my face from hearing this track.

Speaking of which, today’s song is “Boom Boom Boom Boom” off of the group’s first album aptly titled The Party Album. It’s seriously one of my top 10 deserted island albums and something that should be on everyone’s playlist on a weekly basis. Stay tuned this week for more great vocal techno to help you shake those “I JUST GOT TO WORK AND I FEEL LIKE HELL” feelings.

I think that if there was a band that every high-school kid should be forced to listen to, it should be the Ben Folds Five. The music that Ben Folds wrote encapsulates the entire teenage angst years that we’ve all gone through while making the listener feel that everything will be ok.

Today’s track is “Army” off the album, The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner…an album EVERYONE should have.

No explanations, no text. Just Tunak Tunak Tun…DA DA DA!

Ugh, Mondays…trust us we know how it goes. Well anyhow, it’s time to get this week rolling with some great “get your ass out of bed and get the week started off on the right foot” music. Today, you get Powerman 5000. No specific reason other than “When Worlds Collide” being one of my all-time favorite wake up and thrash kind of songs. It makes me miss the Nu-metal/Industrial scene that was around in the late 90s.

I don’t think I’ll make it a theme this week but, maybe…you never know.,

Man, it’s videos like this that make me miss variety shows that had actual talent on them. Before the days of reality television, there were the Muppets. If you’re wondering who the dude singing is, its Harry Belafonte doing his classic calypso hit “Day-O (The Banana Boat Song)”. If you’re a fan of the movie Beetlejuice, you are already more than intimate with Mr. Belafonte’s work.

Ah the Aggrolites, the current kings of ska/reggae in my opinion. The song “Banana” was first seen on the Nick Jr. show Yo Gabba Gabba which had all of the band performing the track during their super music friend show portion.

C’mon, how could I possibly do a bananameme theme and not include this song…it has a mother effing dancing banana for the entire video. If you haven’t seen this video, go back to your rock and continue to live under it.
