I’m singing to the broken people because I’m a broken person. I’m right there with all the rest of the broken people in the world. I’m singing to people who have felt hopeless, because I’ve felt that way before too. Not all the time, but many times. It was a band for broken people. Some people got it, some people didn’t. Some people are broken, some people aren’t. But it was for people that aren’t fully whole and they’re looking for some reason to have hope.

Sounds like a good way of being the Church too.

You need to watch this.

In middle school, I was a huge Depeche Mode fan. I had a disturbingly large poster of the band on my wall back before punk and metal captured my attention. Since then, I've heard many DM covers but this here has to be the best. Not only is it incredibly cute but it is equally as creative. I love the dad's excitement of their accomplishment at the end.

BTW, this comes via The Kids Should See This, a wonderful resource for any geeky dad and his kids.

If you head over to Warp Records right now, you can get a free download Gonjasufi's "Nickels and Dimes." He's an interesting character to say the least, but its a good laid back hip hop track. This San Diegan was recently featured on the cover of The Reader.
