5. New Jazz Fiddle – Asylum Street Spankers
6. New Kid In Town – Trisha Yearwood
7. New Math – Tom Lehrer
8. New Romeo – Southside Johnny and the Jukes
9. New Sensation – INXS
10. New Year’s Day – U2
I’m not quite old enough to remember when New Math was called “New Math” – by the time I got to school, it was just plain old math. But here’s an animated review for those of you who are old enough to remember it, or young enough to wonder what the hell we’re talking about:
The whole “take one from the tens place” is painfully familiar. My apologies to anyone else who might be wincing.
With the new year, you have a new opportunity to help me spend some more iTunes money. I received a $25 iTunes gift card for Christmas and would love to have some suggestions from you as to what music to buy with it. I did this four years ago after getting my first iPod, and got good results. Links to videos of whatever songs you suggest would be appreciated. Thanks! And may the new year be better than the old year, for all of us.
