Brad Sucks: Making Me Nervous

I don’t write about music at all, but I’m making an exception this one time.

I just sent Brad $16 (via Paypal), the price of a normal CD, because I love one of his songs, and I would have bought his album at full price, had I heard the song on the radio… but I didn’t. I heard it on the internet:

Brad Sucks: I Don’t Know What I’m Doing

The one song I’m totally digging: Making Me Nervous.

So, that’s the power of RSS/RDF. I read about this ‘album’ on someone’s weblog (can’t remember whose at this point), and I checked it out. I downloaded the songs, put them on my iPod, and at this point, I think it’s listed in a lot of my automatically generated playlists like the “most played” playlist, the “Top 25 rated” playlist, and the “Top Dance” playlist. I really like the tune (it’s catchy and helps pick me up at the office after a long day). I paid $16, because I really would have paid that much for it in a record store (come to think of it I would have paid $16 at Target… haven’t been to a record store in about 4 years) if they sold the album, or if I heard it on the radio.

Recommendation: Go download the song from Brad, and if you like it, send him a little cash donation, or pay him $5 and he’ll burn you the album and send it to you.

(Thanks to the person who wrote about Brad Sucks a few weeks ago…)

update: I figured out where I read about Brad Sucks first: Matt’s ‘A Whole Lotta Nothing’ (and I found that by searching for it on Feedster, not Google, thank you very much Scott!)
