The Ventures: Hawaii Five-O (1968)

This is the greatest TV theme show of all time. The original series ran from 1968-1980 and the reboot began in 2010. It was the longest running crime drama until Law and Order passed it.

The Rolling Stones: Plundered My Soul (2010)

"Plundered My Soul" dates to the Rolling Stones' Exile on Mainstreet days. When the band re-released the album in 2010, they included the song as a bonus track. Mick Taylor returned to work with Mick Jagger on the tune. The song was a minor hit for the band. Perhaps more importantly, it serves as a tie to rock's strongest era.

We R Who We R by Kesha (2010)

The dance song is inspired by recent incidents of bullying and suicides of young gays. Kesha hoped to write an anthem and rallying song for people. Despite sounding like everything else she does, it is #1 this week. Kesha might be the least talented successful artist to come around in a long long time.

House Rules by Christian Kane

The latest single from Christian Kane.  Kane is known for his roles on Angel and Leverage as well as his country music. This particular song is more rock n roll than today's rock and closer to what country is meant to be than what country has become.

Memories by Weezer (2010)

Here is the latest from Weezer....with some help from Jackass.

#1 this week. Typical pop song.

Teenage Dream by Katy Perry

"Teenage Dream" dethrones Eminem and Rhianna this week and takes over as the #1 song in the country. Katy Perry can't sing, but people seem to like her stuff.

All About Tonight by Blake Shelton

Sick of the Great Recession? Well party! That's Blake Shelton's advice!

#1 this week on the Country Charts.

The Catalyst by Linkin Park

#1 on the rock charts.  Eminem and Rhianna remain #1 on Hot 100.

This song starts out like U2's "Where The Streets Have No Name." When they broke, I never thought Linkin Park would last. Guess I was wrong!

California Gurls by Katy Perry ft. Snoop Dog

Eminem and Rihanna are #1 again this week on the Hot 100. Katy Perry is #1 this week on the Pop Charts with this ode to the Beach Boys. Speaking of which, there was a dustup this week. Apparently, the Beach Boys record label wants to sue Perry over the rights to this song. Brian Wilson and Mike Love do not support the suit.

Perry really does not have a great singing voice, but she picks stuff that is catchy.

Love The Way You Lie by Eminem ft. Rhianna

#1 this week. Rhianna is soooo overrated. She can't sing, but her handlers know what to throw her way. The song title is appropriate. The Beatles outsold everyone in the last decade. After announcing this, the industry decided they needed a contemporary act to be #1 for appearances. So, they came back later and announced Eminem was the top selling artist of the 2000s.
