Oh shit, Look! I have a blog! HA! Seriously, I hate that I have been neglecting things as badly as I have, but I have been crazy busy with this summer semester; which, by the way, is ALMOST OVER. I cannot wait for a little R&R, which I desperately need. In the mean time, here [...]

sotd: Sara Bareilles – King Of Anything
Sara Bareilles – King of Anything from Sam Garvey on Vimeo.
I posted several weeks ago about this fantastic new single from one of my most favorite singers in the world, the amazing Ms. Sara Bareilles, and I STILL cannot get enough of this fabulous song. I seriously cannot wait for the new album, and in [...]
sotd: Ray Lamontagne – Let It Be Me
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: Lisa Loeb – Stay (I Missed You)
God 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
I 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
If 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
Let’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
I 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!
Today, 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 hotly [...]
sotd: Christina Milian – Dip It Low
I 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
This 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 [...]
song of the day: Erik Hassle – Hurtful
While I do realize it has been 2 weeks since the last 5SF, I had clinical today, and I am just too exhausted to wax poetic about five new songs. However, I do have enough energy to gush over one, so I thought I would do a song of the day to tide you over [...]
sotd: RichGirl – He Ain’t Wit Me Now (Tho)
I 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 [...]
sotd: Noah and the Whale – Blue Skies
I posted about this amazing track on the 5SF a few weeks ago, and I have been loving it more and more with each listen. In order to celebrate the release of their new album, The First Days Of Spring in the US today, I really wanted to shine some more light on this song, [...]
one more reason why City and Colour is amazing
In case I haven’t been able to convince you that City and Colour is amazing, please allow me to submit further evidence as to why this is true:
You told me life was a risk…
I just have one last question:
Will it be my heart,
or will it be his?
See what I mean? Completely AMAZING.
