"C'mon Talk" Bernhoft

 
For those who enjoyed the loop tracks I posted last week, this one's killer.

"Unaware" Allen Stone

 
 The screen capture above isn't the most flattering, but that's the beauty of music: you don't have to look like a superstar to have a voice like one. Falsetto mastery. I'm all about Allen becoming the next big thing.

"Kyrie" Mr. Mister


















Full-out jammed to this song on my drive back to State College. Yes, Mr. Mister WAS on the radio.

"Diamond Eyes" Josie Charlwood

 

 Being in a one-(wo)man band has gotten a lot easier since the days of Dick Van Dyke. Oh, technology. If you dig this track and loop style, check out Josie's cover of MGMT's Electric Feel.

"Just For You" The Fed



















Today's song, performed at their ceremony, is in honor of the Schmidriguez wedding. It's also about time I feature the work and creativity of some very talented friends.

This listening experience takes a liiiittle effort. Click the link, turn the background music "off" in the top left of the page. On the embedded media player to the right: push next, then push play. After a full listen, sample some other tracks!

"Ain't No Grave" Johnny Cash


It took me a long time to decide what song to post today, and I think this one feels like the right tribute. Godspeed grandpa, you're dearly missed.

"Well, meet me Jesus, meet me. Meet me in the middle of the air
And if these wings don't fail me I will meet you anywhere"

"This Woman's Work" Kate Bush
















This song is definitely weird. I post it mostly in anticipation of the new season of IASIP, as it was featured in the last season finale.

"I'm With You" Avril Lavigne

















I was reminded of this song after hearing Rihanna's recent sampling. I probably like this song much more than I should. Eh, story of my life.

"Artificial Flowers" Bobby Darin

 














The style is celebratory, the content is depressing. I don't think I'll ever know how to feel about this confusing song.

"Move Your Feet" Junior Senior

 














This song is all it takes to inspire a one-man dance party at your local McDonald's. ...just take my word for it.

"Stayin' Alive" Bee Gees

 
















With all of the CPR I've been practicing in my EMT class, this song that the AHA endorses as having an optimal tempo for compressions is a regular presence in my mind. I must admit, it brings some nice disco levity to events of cardiac arrest.

"I Don't Want Love" The Antlers

 















I saw these boys perform on Late Night recently. It's probably my affinity for falsetto that makes me like this song so much.

"Dead On Arrival" Fall Out Boy


















This song is a Rock Band influenced guilty pleasure. It's been three years since FOB's last album. I wouldn't mind another...

"Building Houses" Wesley Jensen
















I've been wanting to share this track for weeks, but couldn't find anywhere it was posted. It's up now, go enjoy.

"What A Feeling" Irene Cara

















Nothing says "we're old and graduated" like blasting this song while driving through campus. Thanks to JS for providing the mix CD.

"I Believe In A Thing Called Love" The Darkness


















My Hero Zero (a local cover band) brought their old frontman back on stage for this treat. As horrible of a sound as I'm sure the crowd was making, with all of us trying to hit the astronomic high pitches, it was perfectly enjoyable.
