Bag Raiders - Sunlight

This video clip is about love, this song is about love.

Sorry for the delay in uploading new music... I have been working hard elsewhere.

Yeasayer - Love Me Girl

Loving the bass in this song.

"Why is this happening now?
Why does this happen to me all the time?"

Tapes n' Tapes - Cowbell

These guys make angry lyrics sound so pleasant. The fastly strummed guitar, the crunchy lead, and the brass in the background give this song the depth and texture of something a lot bigger. I love the lyrics, the opening lyrics say it all.

"Leave me now - in solitude and stress.
I've been a better lover with your mother.
Stars and cheeks - I hate you from the heart."





I like this raw version with a foosball table too... Organic sounds from the rumpus room.

Epicure - Tightrope Walker

I love this song. It is so easy to listen to, the way that Juan Alban sings in this song is so calming. The orchestral backup helps too.

"And as he's watching her eyelids close in the TV glow,
He can't help thinking that
She's a tightrope walker and he's the streets below."

Band Of Skulls - I Know What I Am

Great Rock. Tickets on sale.

"Hot sweat,
Got debt,
Keep your licker in the locker cause you don't know yet,
But I know what I am,
They know what they are
So let me be"

Phil Collins - Another Day In Paradise

This was put into my head by a friend this week and I haven't stopped humming the intro... it is so smooth...

There are some stellar effects with the camera in this filmclip - along with an epic out-of-this-world intro... i like it... i like it a lot....

"She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she's been crying
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
She can't walk but she's trying"

Emily Wells - In the Barrel of a Gun

This is innovation. I used to have one of those toy microphones with the spring in it - hours of fun.

Great Saturday morning listening.

"Oh my love, in the barrel of a gun, with a girl girl ghost, with the golden sun"
