Seeing the Blue Man Group (hereafter referred to as BMG) in those IBM computer adverts and other places on TV always made me wonder what they really did for a living. It wasn't until I got iTunes that I found out that they were a musical group. And they are performance artists, too, with a headlining Las Vegas show.
A tune toward the end of the trailer for the upcoming movie After the Sunset was familiar so I guessed it's title and looked it up in my iTunes library and there it was -- "I Feel Love (Blue Man Group Radio Edit)" from the album of the same name. Well, maybe it wasn't. The snippet played wasn't really that clear.
So that's what they do!
After hearing the track's sample while buying other BMG tunes (see picture above) I put it in the Wish List for a spell. Then it lounged in the Shopping Cart. And then back to the Wish List. And later ... well, you get the idea. What I was trying to do while ruminating the purchase was to find the original song thinking that this was a cover. The lyrics, insanely simple as they are, and the beat were very, very familiar. Finally, I bought the song without finding it's origin and I don't regret it. "Drumbone" is still my favorite (though it could have a longer play time), but "I Need Love" is awesome in it's own right and so it is the Song of the Day!.
