Sorry for the radio silence. Actually, in all sincerity, last week I spent
half the week sleeping in a bunk at an overnight summer camp, killing spiders,
turning off broken smoke detectors, and walking through cabins at 12 and 4 AM
to do rounds. Don’t ask.
Anyway, here are a few songs everyone should be
listening:
“Amen” by Paper Tongues
I just realized I downloaded “Higher” by Paper
Tongues many moons ago and didn’t put it together that these two songs were
done by the same band. This is a very I-Love-My-Life this song. It can truly lift your spirits. I recommend
it highly.
“Little Talks” by Of Monsters and Men
I feel kind of embarrassed about this but this song
is very creative and catchy and I cannot get enough of it. If Mumford and Sons had children, they would
sound like Of Monsters and Men. This is
a song that I can listen to over and over again and not get tired of it. I think it is because it can mirror your mood—it
can have a happy vibe, a sad vibe, or an angry vibe. It mutates!
“Hands In The Air” by Timbaland featuring Ne-Yo
Taking
a totally different track, the song that plays in most of the Step Up
Revolution previews out right now is AMAZING. This
song is a great song for working out or running (or breaking out into dance on
an escalator in protest-art-fashion).
“Road to Nowhere” by Talking Heads
I heard this song in a bar recently and I was
super excited about it. I grew up listening to Talking Heads (well,
rather I grew up with my mom listening to Talking Heads and therefore me being
forced to listen to them as well). They were just never my thing. I
never took kindly to them, I guess you could say. However, this song
really is great and it makes me respect them a little bit more.
Other songs worth listening to:
“She Doesn’t Mind” by Sean Paul
“Feel Good Drag” by Anberlin
“In My Trunk” by Dev
And if anyone hasn’t heard about it—Marilyn
Manson and Rob Zombie are performing in New York City on Wednesday, October 17th.
Concert will also feature Jonathan Davis from Korn. Should be an epic
show!
You shouldn't stop writing about music, you're too good at it.
