Sweetness and light

You give love a bad...
Dehd's new single, "Bad Love," debuted this week (appropriately enough on Feb. 14 and featuring another rather campy-goofy video — this one is still a fave) ... this is the Chicago-based band's first single from the upcoming album Blue Skies, out on Fat Possum May 27.
And Dehd will be at the Bowery Ballroom on May 24.

'Love' crazy
- I've been listening to "We Love You" by the Rolling Stones because the song reminds me of a friend who died this year.
- Somehow, I'd never seen the promo video for the song from 1967 that (thank you, IMDB, cutting and pasting) included footage from recording sessions along with segments that re-enacted the 1895 trial of Oscar Wilde, with Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Marianne Faithfull respectively portraying Wilde, a judge and Lord Alfred Douglas.
- The IMDB description helpfully notes the following: "Footage also appears of Brian Jones, apparently high on drugs with his eyes drooping and unfocused." (So 2021!) More facts about the song here.

Horse sense
The Chicago-based teen trio Horsegirl recently released this video for "Billy," a forthcoming 7-inch single (with a cover of the Minutemen's "History Lesson Part II" on side B) via their new label, Matador.
The band has said the song is "a love letter to past music scenes we wish we could have witnessed."
