YSLAR: Christmas Round Up

So I haven’t been able to share a lot of Christmas music on here this season. There are a pretty decent amount of holly jolly tracks in the site’s archives, however. See, I figure you can fit more presents underneath an upside down Christmas tree. This is me thinking logically (greedily?) here. The pimp hat [...]

YSLAR Updates: December ’11

Have a holly jolly Chr… wait a second, sorry the Christmas tracks are starting to get to me. They are driving me insane and it’s only just now December! Things have been uneventful over the past month on here. I listened to a lot of South African hip hop over the past month, a sort [...]

VIDEO: Jefferson Starship, “Light the Sky on Fire”

I don’t know a lot about my next Dragon*Con featured band, Jefferson Starship, other than they have been making music for a very long time. Jefferson Starship is actually a spin-off band of sorts of Jefferson Airplane which came about in the early 1970′s. I first heard of the newer Jefferson Starship variation in the [...]

VIDEO: Donny And Marie Osmond’s Star Wars Special

“A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away there was an evil Force at work to destroy the values by which decent people lived: values like patriotism, cleanliness, thrift, and good dental hygiene.” This is how Donny and Marie Osmond‘s late 70′s Star Wars special started off. The ten minute musical features Donny [...]

MP3/VIDEO: Six Songs That I Am Into Right Now

I figured why not get out another “Eight Songs” post before the end of the year? Only this time I’m trying something new. This will mark the first post in a new direction followed in 2011, a less dense yet more frequent “Six Songs That I Am Into Right Now”. While the warm glow radiating [...]

MP3: John Williams, “The Imperial March (Darth Vader’s Theme)”

It is unfortunate to have to announce that Irvin Kershner has passed away at the age of 87 following a long bout with illness. Since 1980 Kershner has become known to many Star Wars fans as the director of the best film in the saga, The Empire Strikes Back. In this rare picture from the [...]

YSLAR Updates: November ’10

So last month I said that I might post my pumpkin later. Well, here you have it… the Pumpkintrooper! I carved it all by myself! Anyway, I have good news in that You Sound Like A Robot is now on both Facebook and Twitter! Now you can follow all of the site’s updates from your [...]

MP3/VIDEO: Eight Songs That I Am Into Right Now

I’ve decided that since I have had so much cool music come through the inbox lately, another Eight Songs post is in order. Hear eight more songs that I have been into lately after the break. A spooky picture of eight pumpkins seems appropriate for such a post, eh? Considering the time of year, that [...]

VIDEO: IG-88 The Dancing Robot

Happy Star Wars Day, one and all! May the Fourth be with you, always… or at least until the end of the day. This year I am bringing you a video that was actually made back in 2007 titled IG-88: The Dancing Robot. The fan video, totaling just over five minutes long, was made by [...]

VIDEO: Galactic Empire State Of Mind

I happened upon this great video posted over on College Humor the other day. It is a parody of the song “Empire State Of Mind” that you’ve heard on the radio by Jay-Z and Alicia Keys with a heavy dose of Star Wars. Penned by Owen Parsons and Conor McKeon “Galactic Empire State Of Mind” [...]
