A new band I discovered

Sounds a bit like riding a merry-go-round

While walking through the rain and the snow

adn theres nowhere to go

and you’re looking for the answers in her eyes

you think you’re gonna break-up

and she says she wants to make-up

 

This is a childhood song for me

I love the background singers especially in “and you’re looking for the answer in eyes”

man I love this song so much

“The things we do for love”

It reminds me of a rainy day in Lancelin when I rode home from school.

I was twelve I think

scared that the lightning would get a power pole and electricute me

I sped up at every electric pole

 

Maggi two minute noodles and Red Dwarf

cushion fortresses and Harry Potter books

and lots and lots of Milo.

The Department of Eagles

I love this band

Just discovered them

They use rich harmonies, subtle drum beats and a lot of ‘ooo’s and ‘aaaah’s

anyway, you can listen to them on the hype machine:

New Empire of the Sun CD

oh I’m so so so happy

finally, they have a cd out.

I couldn’t think of a better collaboration

better than brown sugar and lemon

better than orange and blue

better than sour cream and sweet chili sauce

better than john Lennon and Yoko Ono

Better than bogans and flannels

oh my goodness. Luke Steele’s voice is so good with PNAU

Other songs by Empire of the Sun are:

‘Half Mast’

‘We are the People’

Also, before empire of the sun, Luke Steele was already doing this little ditty with the PNAU boys: With you Forever, thats what got me hooked.

Music I’m listening to this week

Posted by: lantacko on: October 6, 2008

I’ve been humming along to the Fleet Foxes, some of their older stuff is great

Textbook Love by the Fleet Foxes is good

Also, I am obsessed with Lightspeed Champion

a good song is Galaxy of the lost

Going through Puritan’s blog I found some Devo and was inspired to find ‘It’s a Beautiful world’ the video is so good:

Music I like right now

Posted by: lantacko on: September 13, 2008

good study music is my Baroque playlist

Komm, Jesu, komm! BWV 229- J.S Bach (who else?!)

Also, not so good study music:

Mystery Jets- Two Doors Down

happy (fake) 80’s synth yacht rock

it has sax

yeah

http://hypem.com/track/608300/Mystery+Jets-Two+Doors+Down

also new Bloc Party music- Mercury

they’re starting to sound a bit 90’s rave but for some reason i love it even more

Sparkadia

i know it’s old and over played now, but i still love ‘too much to do’ and ‘jealousy’

The White Rabbits- The Plot

another song over-played but i still love it.

Jenny Wilson- Let My shoes lead me forward, make me feel like i’m in a movie. Try to walk to the beat.

new Holly Throsby- A Heart divided

all good music
