Songs about hair
November 6th, 2008 by Wade Tatangelo in News
So, here it goes, I got terrifically drunk recently and shaved my head. Yep. Been planning on doing the deed for some time. Not exactly sure why I finally went through with it. Still waiting for my coworker/personal shrink Joe Bardi to give his analysis. Anyway, here are the songs that go through my naked head every time I look at that picture my neighbor Katie took of me while I was blogging away on election night.
Top 10: Songs about hair (or losing it)
1. Bald Headed Men, Four Bitchin’ Babes
2. Get a Hair Cut, George Thorogood
3. Cut My Hair, The Who
4. Almost Cut My Hair, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young
5. Don’t Cut Your Hair, The Pretenders

7. Black Is the Color of My True Love’s Hair, Nina Simone

^^^ that was the first song I thought of when I saw the title of the blog.. Is Wade not a big fan? I’ve always thought they’ve been a bit overrated; I mean, they’re no Built To Spill.. ; )

I think Pavement is perhaps the most overrated band of all time. The plug was for my pal, Gabe. Who is probably now seething since I just knocked his favorite band.

wade, i’m not seething, pavement is a lost cause on you. and they aren’t my favorite band. have you seen my new tattoo?

I’ll save PJ the trouble.
analysis = you were drunk, Wade.

jess,
a brilliant deduction! he did start off by saying “I got terrifically drunk recently and shaved my head”. :)
what surprises me is that he doesn’t do shit like this more often… i take that back, he does: wrestling at four green fields, kissing someone for (your) money, pool antics after beer fest…

No one’s discussed the photo of Wade with hair. WTF happened to you, dude? Looks like you just woke up from sleeping face-first by the toilet for 15 hours after a many-day bender. I’ve got pics that good, but I don’t share them!

What can I say? I share everything. Well, almost everything.
