Anytime Anywhere - Anywhere Anytime

Só queria referir o facto de que na música I Wanna Make It Wit Chu dos Queens Of The Stone Age é dito:

I wanna make it
I wanna make it wit chu
Anytime, Anywhere


E na Anywhere Anytime dos Jay-Jay Johanson é dito:

Anywhere, Anytime
We'll be there
Long before the others will


Que é uma coisa fabulosa.

(Ah e tal, o amor é imperativamente intemporal.)

Florence + The Machine 'Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up)'

"Midas is king and he holds me so tight /
And turns me to gold in the sunlight"



Qualquer música com referências a Midas recebe imediatamente amor.

Adoro a voz de desespero dela. Gosto de imaginar que esta música é sobre prostituição. Resulta tão bem. (E fica uma boa piada com "raise it up").

"Who is the Lamb and who is the Knife?" <3

Boys Noize - Heart Attack

This is not a song. This is a life experience. Dive in.

Babies are born to the sound of this

'Fake Empire' by The National

"Turn the light out, say goodnight
no thinking for a little while
let's not try to figure out everything at once."

It's hard to express how much I love this song. In most of The National song's most of the time the lyrics don't make much sense until some little sentence (like this one - or like the "break my arms around the one I love in Daughters of The Soho riots) and everything sudently gets perfect.

Sometimes I feel "We're half-awake in a fake empire" could resume most of my life. lol? bah It's just so pretty. (:

Yeasayer - Sunrise

"why can't I
Get in the sunrise
I want to get in the sunrise"


Everytime I hear this I feel I wanna run away. Pretend I'm Icarus and just go and go until I melt. God, I want to get in the sunrise!

Delphic - Doubt


Delphic - Doubt

I just love this video. I keep wondering which morph would I prefer. I Think the triangle-wood would definitly do it.

This skin-emotion idea really works for me. Touching is the ultimate feeling after all. *

Something Stupid

I practice everyday to find some clever lines to say to make the meaning come true.
And then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late and I'm alone with you.



It's so easy to say I Love You. Is it always as magical as when it is said by the Sinatras?

The Dress

Don't let the dress trick you,
I love you less now that I know you.




I love love love this song. I meet the band when they were opening for Interpol and suddenly my love for Interpol was replaced by love for Blonde Redhead (not all, though :P ).
I think the song is about an abusive relationship, but who knows. It just feels so right.

I advise you to watch the oficial music video directed by Mike Mills, here. It's.. different.

Don and Sherri

How can I let you forget me
If you don't even know me already?


Sometimes. It is that simple.
Let it grow on you.

Crystalized

You don't move slow
In taking steps in my direction
The sound resounds, echo
Does it lessen your affection?
No



Meet my new musical love.
"dark sexiness" i read someone referring to this song. I agree.
I think I melt every time they say the final "Go Slow"s. I also like the fact that near the end they both sing at the same time different lyrics. It's.. stimulating.
ah-i-ah-i-ah.

I'd rather dance with you

Get into the swing
Get into the swing
Get into the swing
Get into the swing
Get into the swing
Get into the swing



The kings of lo-fi are the Kings of Convenience. As Feist says: they're the duo of the century.

Is it possible not to fall in love with this song? It's so simple and sincere. "Just shut up and dance with me!" And even if, sometimes, you feel that the intellectual side should win over the hips, this song proves you wrong - And you know it.

By Your Side

I'll scrub your floor
Never be a bore
I'll tuck you in
I do not snore
I'd wear your black eyes
Bake you apple pies
I don't ask why
And I'll try not to cry



I will never find anything as strange and magical as Cocorosie. The most unlikely voices make one hell of a duo. I saw them live and it was the best gig I saw in my entire life. Really. They even have a guy beatboxing which tours with them and does all the would-be electronic. Magical. Weird. Lovely.

Old Weapons


And if you can't dance to this you can't do nothing for me baby.
