Song of the Day #761 - let 'em get high, let 'em get stoned

The former lead of Eastern Conference Champions (it's a shame they never got much notice) is killing it with this Mondo Cozmo moniker.  I need an album, stat.

Song of the Day #757 - i can't describe it, there's nothing like it

Where'd this dude come from?  Release an album already.

ps - might be stopping this ps section going forward (or at least only doing it randomly) since i tend to set up several posts at once and it's hard to do a ps for a post that doesn't hit for 5 days...

Song of the Day #752 - the stars and the charts and the cards make sense only when we want them to

Was instantly in love with this song the first time I ever heard it...

The xx - On Hold

ps - i remember seeing them open for friendly fires like 7 years ago...they were kind of dull. now they're playing just before a headliner at coachella...and with a much livelier stage presence. i approve.
