Song of the Day #216 - we won't stay down long

One of those little gems I found back when I used to investigate SxSW bands a few years back.  I really need to start doing that again.

Gentleman Auction House - The Book of Matches

ps - i used to be legit. i was too legit. i was too legit to quit. but now i'm not legit. i'm unlegit. and for that reason, i must quit.

Song of the Day #215 - you can't fake this, only imitate this

We can definitely file this one under guilty pleasure.  I just wanna dance.

Young Love - Discotech

ps - hopefully it's just a case of pilot-itis.  otherwise, don't think i'll be hanging round terra nova much longer.

Song of the Day #210 - how's that bricklaying coming?

I could easily see these guys on the same bill as previously Frazier Approved bands like Edward Sharpe and Of Monsters and Men.  Sometimes you just need good folkish rock in your life.

The Head and the Heart - Lost In My Mind

ps - how bout that lion king? wow.

Song of the Day #209 - there is no one like me

Whoops.  Let's try to get back on this.  Chiddy makes his 3rd appearance on this blog (though one time was a remix) with this fun ditty that's also on the Madden 2012 soundtrack.

Chiddy Bang - Mind Your Manners

ps - is it just me or is there something slightly off about madden 12?
