Get Out of My Head

Currently eating away at my brain (in the good way) is Michael Penn’s song “Walter Reed” from his new album, [Mr. Hollywood Junior, 1947](http://www.am azon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0009WFFRM/theusualsuspepat). An MP3 of this song is downloadable, for free, as part of the press kit for the album. Go forth and suffer as I have suffered.

If you have iTunes (and who doesn’t?) you can also [watch the video](http://ph obos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewVideo?b=a&videoId=78326431).

Michael Penn is married to Aimee Mann, and has done a lot of the production on her albums. More or less the song sounds like Aimee Mann. With a sex change.

Excuse me, now I need to go listen to [Hyperballad](http://www.amazon.com/exec /obidos/ASIN/B000002HYM/theusualsuspepat) 47 times to try to get this out of my head.
