Recent Randoms

I took a break from keeping up with my blog.....main reason being there is just too much music to LOVE!  So just for the record instead of sticking to a theme every post is just going to be a random relation to music in some way.  I am trying to not over think this, just go with it!

I do not claim to know anything about the technicality and talent it takes to create music, I just enjoy it thoroughly.  I like what I like and usually people like the bands and songs I suggest....so why not share it with my friends & the internet world?

Music is the heartbeat of my life so share the love.  This blog is for ONLY POSITIVE comments.  I am not here to judge what other people enjoy so please respect what I care about as well.

Also, my choices are so random so if you don't like a song just skip to the next, it actually might fit your taste!

Happy Listening!

1.  "The Intro" by The XX.
I love good use of music in movies.  Totally has the power to influence an emotional reaction that is unforgettable.  Anyone remember LET GO from Garden State?  Here is another example:  It's Kind of A Funny Story.  I am not sure how I completely feel about the movie itself as a whole, but there are some pretty incredible moments.  One includes the main character "checking out" while he is creating an architectural  piece of art.  Thank you to The XX for the beautiful soundtrack in that scene!

I couldn't find the clip from the movie (so you need to watch it) but here is the song:



2. "Crystalised" by The XX
This entire self titled album is AMAZING.  I listen to it a lot when I am applying for jobs & it so helps me focus and just feel relaxed.  Love the beat in this song, pretty sexy if you ask me.

"So don't think that I'm pushing you away
When you're the one that I've kept closest"


3. Quick shout out to one of my favorite bands of all time....UNDEROATH! They don't exactly fit the mold of what I what I listen to right at this moment in my life but they still give me that extra shot of adrenaline when needed. Saw them in February of this year, still amazing!
So with that said, I have to share this:


4. "Latin America" by Holy Fuck
So I discovered this band because yeah, the name caught my eye.  I used to hate music without lyrics that felt like it just went on and on.  Well not anymore.  This band feels like it could be a soundtrack in my life's adventures.



5. "Lovely Allen" by Holy Fuck
So even if you didn't like the other song I posted by them LISTEN to this one! I want to do a silent theatre skit with this someday....



6. "Hello" by Martin Solveig feat. Dragonette
Recent conversation with my friend: I don't usually like music on the radio but I actually like this, I was shocked! Haha.
