"My 3 Songs" for Tuesday

Posted at 2:30 PM on May 22, 2007 by Steve Seel (2 Comments)

Mike Arney from St. Paul is trying a novel approach at getting MPR to consider him for employment. "I've been trying to get an internship at MPR. I have applied to all of the open website related positions since December. I know I am qualified, but I have not heard a peep. So, I guess I just need to do something to get their attention. Hopefully these songs can sublilminally persuade a few attentive listeners in the H.R. department to take a closer look at my resume'.

1) Bill Withers, "Use Me"
2) Spoon, "I Turn My Camera On"
3) Beatles, "Don't Pass Me By"

(By the way, Mike, you're probably not alone in your disappointment, since we really do have fewer actual internships here at the big MPR than most people assume we do...)

If it's any consolation, Mike, it was great to hear that Beatles track. It has such a twisted sound; who other than Ringo could write a line like "You were in a car crash and you lost your hair"?

If you guys want to hear "Don't Pass Me By" the way it should have been done, listen to the Georgia Satellites' version.

No joke.

As great as the Beatles are, you just can't help but listen to the Satellites' revved-up, honky-tonk Skynyrd version and smile.
