media. music. feminism. food. city-dwelling. story-telling. and other things.

Obviously, it’s too early to call the Official Song of Summer 2008 yet (4th of July Weekend is really the Super Tuesday of Summer Song wattage), but “I’m Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance With You” by Black Kids is, at the moment, the strongest contender (thanks).

I’m putting out a last call for suggestions for The Most Perfect Beginning-of-Summer Mix Tape Ever, 2008 Edition. Comment now or forever hold our peace.

And seriously, New York? “Take a Bow?” THAT is no “Umbrella.”
