Ummm, so the last few weeks I’ve been putting some great songs on here taht I love & Adriana keeps beating me to the punch! Today? She mentioned Jeff Buckley in her 9 month post to her sweet Hendrix & then? I knew who I needed to share with the interwebz today. (Obviously this divorce from the internet isn’t going well!)
Jeff Buckley. Jeff freaking BUCKLEY. You were my Kurt Cobain & I cried that day in 1997 when my BFF came running out of class to tell me of your completely tragic death.
Your voice? It gives me chills EVERY SINGLE TIME I hear it.
Here’s a few classics for you. My next parenting mission? Teaching Hudson the correct times in a punk song to air punch. As Kelsey says: “it’s an artform.” These are a few of my favorite (of this genre) songs- mostly from my youth, although Bear vs. Shark I discovered after high school thanks to my cool kid bro. My next music post?? Totally gonna be hip-hop/rap. Throw some Hiero atcha. Get stoked. Continue reading 'I’m feeling old school.'»
One of my favorite Decemberists songs for your enjoyment. One of my favorite live shows I’ve ever seen.(not this exact show- just in general. I like them live.) Which is why I’ve gone back to see them so many times!
Obsession alert: I think this song is amazing. I have heard it a few times & loved it but never knew who sang it until Girl’s Gone Child mentioned it today. I was SOOOO EFFING HAPPY & downloaded it (as well as the album IMMEDIATELY!)
“Ahhh Home. Let me go home. Home is wherever I’m with you. Ahhh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome. Home is where I’m alone with you.”
I fucking love this song so much! I’m rocking out. So, thanks, Girl’s Gone Child.
And also?? A few weeks ago, the awesome Adriana @ Just By Living posted this song- also amazing and album-download worthy. It’s so great!
Two new musical finds for you guys!! Enjoy & try not to get overwhelmingly obsessed with these songs.
So, a lot of blogs I read do a song of the day every so often. I love hearing what other people are into. I’m not super cool or anything when it comes to music- but I definitely have a few artists/songs etc that I love. Continue reading 'I’m listening to:'»
“I am thinking it’s a sign that the freckles
In our eyes are mirror images and when
We kiss they’re perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate that God himself
Did make us into corresponding shapes like
Puzzle pieces from the clay
And true, it may seem like a stretch, but
Its thoughts like this that catch my troubled
Head when you’re away when I am missing you to death”
Everytime I am feeling down- I do what my sis-in-law Krust & I used to call “a tour” in which you listen to about a million songs- but once you hear the part that totally speaks to you- you go to the next song. Continue reading 'Music really DOES heal you, sometimes.'»
