Sometimes, there is a song that is just so perfect, just so wonderful, just so beautiful, that it literally gives you chills. This is one of those songs for me. I was talking with a friend about Ray Lamontagne the other day, and I was reminded of this song, which for me, is one of [...]

sotd: Ray Lamontagne – Let It Be Me
Published by June 23rd, 2010 in music musings, music suggestion and song of the day. 1 Commentsotd: Lisa Loeb – Stay (I Missed You)
Published by June 20th, 2010 in music musings and song of the day. 2 CommentsGod I loved this song when it came out… then they played this shit out of it on the radio, and naturally, I got tired of it. However, last week, I was eating lunch with some friends after a particularly frustrating day-long lecture, and it started playing; and it was almost like a warm hug [...]
sotd: The National – Bloodbuzz Ohio
Published by June 5th, 2010 in music musings, music suggestion, song of the day and you tube. 2 CommentsI really wanted to do a 5SF Friday yesterday, but things have been crazy since school started this semester. They weren’t joking about the whole accelerated thing. Things should slow down a bit after next week though, and I am definitely looking forward to that (hopefully) happening. With that being said, I just can’t wait [...]
sotd: Silversun Pickups – The Royal We
Published by May 26th, 2010 in music musings, music suggestion and song of the day. 0 CommentsIf you followed my countdown of last years top 31 albums, you already know that the Silversun Pickups AMAZING sophomore album, Swoon, came in at number six, and is quite simply put, incredible. While I loved this song when the album was initially released (over a year ago!), a current single release has put it [...]
sotd: Hot Chip – I Feel Better
Published by May 5th, 2010 in music musings, music suggestion, song of the day and you tube. 3 CommentsLet’s just go ahead and admit it; this video is BRILLIANT (albeit, a bit frightening). The first time I saw it, I was like, “This is NOT Hot Chip! WTF sign, you lie!?!”, and then, I was all, “oh. AWESOME”. So yeah, I can’t get enough Hot Chip right now, and this song, the video, [...]
sotd: Florence + The Machine – Dog Days Are Over
Published by April 25th, 2010 in music musings, music suggestion, song of the day and you tube. 2 CommentsI owe my friend Deb an apology on this one. She was screaming about how amazing Florence + The Machine were practically all of last year (and even named Lungs as her album of the year), but for whatever reason, I wasn’t ever able to get into as much as she did. Well, that has [...]
amazing news sotd: new Scissor Sisters!
Published by April 13th, 2010 in hotness, listen up!, music musings, music suggestion, song of the day and you tube. 0 CommentsToday, the Scissor Sisters posted the a song from their forthcoming album, Night Work, called Invisible Light, on their website. Thankfully, they also posted the song in its entirety on youtube, and as such, I get to gush about it here. Have a listen: In a word? AMAZING. The Scissor Sisters are back with their [...]
sotd: Christina Milian – Dip It Low
Published by April 10th, 2010 in music musings, music suggestion and song of the day. 0 CommentsI love this song; it is smoldering hot, and the chorus is damn dirty. I seriously cannot get enough of it, and it is one that I frequently request when going out dancing. What better to post on a Saturday that is certainly in need of a little energy; let’s all roll it all around, [...]
sotd: City and Colour – Boiled Frogs
Published by March 29th, 2010 in music musings, music suggestion and song of the day. 0 CommentsThis was released not that long ago on iTunes, and any “new” material from City and Colour is always something to be excited about. This song is a “cover” of Alexisonfire’s song of the same name. I use quotations around cover, because it isn’t really a cover, so much as it is Dallas’ acoustic take [...]
sotd: RichGirl – He Ain’t Wit Me Now (Tho)
Published by November 18th, 2009 in music musings, music suggestion and song of the day. 2 CommentsI was trying to think of something to post about when it hit me; I haven’t done a SOTD in quite a while. Today I was listening to Amerie’s newest album, In Love and War (there are some really great tracks on there!), and it reminded me of the very poorly marketed RichGirl, and their [...]
