this week's song is not just the song. i first heard light outside by wakey!wakey! when watching this video by vs the brain featuring andrew and carissa gallo. how can you not love them? and this video is just too dreamy.
by now, you've all heard the music of lana del rey, who's totally making her big moves right now in the music biz. for most people, you love her or you hate her-- i chose to love! it's something different: a little old school, a little dark, nothing like i've really heard before. there's some dubstep remixes going around youtube of her songs, but the 'video games' remix has made itself my favorite!
remember how on the first of school, everyone had to stand up and share a little bit about themselves? yeah. i always hated that day. not only because i consider it small talk (and i hate small talk) but because there is really no describing my personality. as true as one fact is about me on one side of the scale, it's almost always just as true on the complete opposite side. does that make sense? probably not.
the biggest example of this i can give you is my taste in music. you won't ever find someone who can so briskly channel her inside disc jockey from josh garrels to a tribe called quest. i like to think the contents of my itunes is pretty unique.
i want to share a new artist or song with you in week in the hopes that you'll have a new enjoyable tune for the weekend. i hope you'll share a song or two with me, too. i know i'm not the only one sick of the radio. (seriously, WHAT are these kids listening to these days?)
to start off simple, here is the most peaceful of songs ever. enough of my words. relax.
