Local Natives

Local Natives - "World News"

Local Natives - "Airplanes"

Heartless Bastards

Heartless Bastards - "Only for You"

Both of the latest albums are fantastic.

 For the longest time Derek and I debated whether it was a man or woman singing. Who cares, right!

TV on the Radio

TV On The Radio - " Wolf Like Me"

I know this is an older one, but I just found out about it this year. Kind of one of those one hit wonders, but worth the look up just for this amazing song. 

Funny thing: I actually found out about it when Derek and I were watching The Colbert Report with the dudes from TV on the Radio performing. They were pretty rad live too. 

Ane Brun - The Treehouse Song

Ane Brun - "The Treehouse Song"

Kind of a depressing and creepy video but it certainly portrays the feeling of the song. 

I thought my obsession with Ane Brun ended with "Do you remember" until I found this song. I was sort of going through a rough time when I found it, which might be why I fell in love with it. Really hit home at the time. 

Miike Snow

Miike Snow - Animal

Yes, you will find yourself singing this song out loud in random places. 

Your friends will hate you. It's worth it

Black and Blue is great as well!

Pete Yorn & Scarlett Johansson

Pete Yorn & Scarlett Johansson - "Relator"

Kind of an old obsession for me, but still a great song. 

Hugest girl crush on Scarlett when I first heard this album

My Dearest Carly

It honestly kills me that I will probably never get the chance to see her live. I would do anything to go back and watch her live in the 70's

Carly Simon - " Nobody Does it Better"

My favorite of her songs. Look how freaking cute she is! I want that outfit.

Carly Simon - "Vengeance"

First time I've seen this video.  Amazing! She rocks! Even though she only has a limited amount of live performances, she absolutely kills them all. Can't even tell she had stage fright.

Carly Simon- "Anticipation"

Wish I could of been here

Sleigh Bells

Sleigh Bells - "Rill Rill"

Kind of an older one but still..... Obsessed......

                                                       Summer Camp - "Ghost Train"

The Lumineers

The Lumineers - "Ho Hey"

Completely Obsessed.....

This song makes me want to sing terribly loud... early in the morning. I hate mornings, I hate waking up. I bet this song is how those weird morning people feel all the time. Lucky them.
