Song of the Day #367 - i wished i was numb

I saw someone describe the sound of this as "sultry"....but when I first read it, I read it as "slutty".  I think both apply smashingly and in the best way possible.

Kita Klane - The Enemy

ps - i forgot how relaxing it is just lay in bed and listen to music.

Song of the Day #364 - just 'cause i'm shallow doesn't mean that i'm heartless

This song has actually come up on my zune the last two times I've been walking through the Vegas airport upon arrival...so amazingly fitting.  Repeat this weekend.

Also, awesome video.

LCD Soundsystem - Drunk Girls

ps - hundy on black.

Song of the Day #363 - i know it could get much easier if we wanted to

He's gone sort of Coldplay here, but I'll allow it...

Sea Wolf - Old Friend

ps - been hearing that new macklemore & ryan lewis (which i like!) all over rock radio....why is it only white hip hop that ever makes it onto rock radio...seems extremely racist...

Song of the Day #361 - at least there's pretty lights

Colin Hay (the frontman of Men at Work) was one of Demetri Martin's guests at his show last week.  Hay came out and told some stories and played a couple songs...this being one of them.  First heard this on Scrubs (I think season 2) and I've been a huge fan of it ever since.  It was originally a Men at Work song, but I much, much prefer this stripped down version.  Awesomeness.

Colin Hay - Overkill

ps - onesies are awesome

Song of the Day #360 - won't you wrap the night around me?

I'm embarrassed to admit I'm not too familiar with the original version of this by U2, but I fell in love with Jack White's cover after hearing it in The Great Gatsby trailer. Just so damn passionate.

Jack White - Love is Blindness (U2 Cover)

ps - 'the world needs dreamers.......but not their blogs'  thanks for a hilarious night, demetri martin.

Song of the Day #358 - you can't deny you're looking for your sunset

One of those songs where when you hear it for the first time, you're just like..."yep, that's about right"...at least for me.  Not the first and definitely not the last song on here to come from the (500) Days of Summer soundtrack. 

Mumm-Ra - She's Got You High

ps - i want to be paul rudd when i grow up.

Song of the Day #357 - could you be with me tonight?

Been revisiting Jimmy Eat World's Invented quite a bit the past couple weeks, and I'm pretty sure it's their best album since Bleed American.  My current favorite...  (though 'Heart is Hard to Find' is probably still my favorite favorite on the album)

Jimmy Eat World - littlething

ps - ahmad bradshaw and hakeem nicks...tonight, please play better than you've ever played before.  that would be delightful.

Song of the Day #356 - who says those bastards don't deserve to pay?

I know they were just on here last week, but this song is just too good.

Passion Pit - It's Not My Fault, I'm Happy

ps - point break live > terminator too: judgment play  (but t2 was still good!)
