Song of the Day #489 - someday i'll be coming home

Makes me feel like I'm back in Texas.

Jamestown Revival - California

ps - they played a good show last night opening at the troubadour

Song of the Day #488 - i can feel it coming

Apparently Shaun White plays guitar in this band...  And in a nonsensical way, it makes me wish I didn't like this song as much as I did....but alas, I do.  And that's OK.  Let's rock.

Bad Things - Anybody

ps - if i had a vote, i would've voted for her...but i don't

Song of the Day #487 - and tonight is the night, and tonight is alright

I don't know whether to compare MØ more to Lorde or Lana Del Rey, but maybe she's a little bit of both. She's normally a bit more dark and brooding than this one, but I wanted to get the dance party started.

MØ - Don't Wanna Dance

ps - c'mon gravity!

Song of the Day #486 - come on, show what you love now

I'll never understand the vitriol against Beady Eye.  No, it's not vintage Oasis, and no, they're not doing anything particularly revolutionary, but overall, it's pretty solid stuff.  I particularly like this one.  Also, as previously mentioned on this thing, I'm a sucker for horns.

Beady Eye - Second Bite of the Apple

ps - why did the rain stop?

Song of the Day #485 - i didn't need the money, but the money was nice

TPC slows it down a little and the result is this Fountains-of-Wayne-esque gem.

Tokyo Police Club - Hot Tonight

ps - is it a rainpocalypse or a stormzilla?

Song of the Day #484 - kids sing! kids sing!

Totally meant to post this one last week... in honor of the 10-year anniversary of Kanye's The College Dropout, my favorite rap/hip-hop album of all time.  While this one may not be my favorite track on there (that honor probably still goes to 'Jesus Walks'...and if you wanna go kitschy, it's the first half of 'The New Workout Plan) here's the track that when I first heard it, I knew this album was going to be something special.

Kanye West - We Don't Care

ps - maybe i really will start training to curl

Song of the Day #483 - oh, we were comin' around

Happy music!

The Colourist - Little Games

ps - i want to be an olympic curler when i grow up

Song of the Day #482 - make yourself right, never mind them

Man, this is pretty good.

Ages and Ages - Divisionary (Do The Right Thing)

ps - why has my neighbor decided to start playing guitar every night after midnight?

Song of the Day #481 - i am loving you more

I fell like I could very well find this song incredibly annoying at some point, but for now, it totally works for me, and, therefore, I proclaim it Frazier Approved.

Bear Hands - Giants

ps - not overpacking is hard.

Song of the Day #480 - oh yeah, i hate you too

I guess there's always some sort of validation when a song you've been listening to for more than a year starts getting some radio play...  hashtag music elitist

Cherub - Doses & Mimosas

ps - and on the radio they can't even play half the chorus...

Song of the Day #479 - when you use your medulla oblongata...

Love this...just came back across it for the first time in forever.  The Kanye verse alone is worth the price of admission...

Hold up, born in '88

How old is that? Old enough

I got seniority with the sorority

So, that explain why I love college

Gettin' brain in the library 'cause I love knowledge

When you use your Medulla Oblongata

And give me scoliosis until I comatoses

And do it while I sleep yeah a little osmosis

And thats my commandment you aint gotta ask Moses

More champagne more toastes

More damn planes, more coastes

And fuck a bus, the Benz is parked like Rosa

Kid Cudi - Make Her Say (feat. Kanye West and Common)

ps - one day till bacon fest

Song of the Day #478 - don't let those sparks die out

Sing it, sister!

Misterwives - Reflections

ps - i really don't care about your facebook movie.

Song of the Day #477 - you don't give a f*ck

How about a seductive jam to warm you up?

Robby Hunter Band - BUST

ps - i don't care about your facebook movie

Song of the Day #476 - free your miiiiind

Good times for all!

Architecture in Helsinki - Dream a Little Crazy

ps - and the rest will follow

Song of the Day #475 - it's not giving up to know you're wrong

Revisiting JJAMZ's debut from last year made me realize I need to listen to more JJAMZ.

JJAMZ - Get What You Want

ps - i don't care about this super bowl...but go seahawks...

Song of the Day #474 - it's life and death, we won't rest

The title of their EP is Guilty Pleas....is that short for guilty pleasure?  OK, OK, I'll get off my high horse...this is actually really good.

Night Terrors of 1927 - Dust and Bones

ps - i think i used to have night terrors...but not in 1927...nor about 1927, either....i don't think...

Song of the Day #473 - closest thing to michelle pfeiffer that you've ever seen

This is long overdue...

Vance Joy - Riptide

ps - still can't decide on my fav sundance movie...either whiplash, rudderless, cold in july or imperial dreams....i think.

Song of the Day #472 - we can light the towers up and tie the wires

SYNTH!

Thumpers - Unkinder (A Tougher Love)

ps - so sad sundance is over. 19 movies this year...a new record!

Song of the Day #471 - we don't like to talk about it because we know that it's just no use

Geez, this is good.  Came across Tangerine's awesome "Feel This Way" a few months ago and had it on queue to post on here, but then I came across this little ditty and had to go with this one instead. Kind of obsessed.

Tangerine - Dreadful

ps - anxiously awaiting pats-broncos tomorrow. 

Song of the Day #470 - the bands i like, they don't sell too many records, and the girls i like, they don't kiss too many boys

I guess it's finally time post a song in 2014.  Kick us off, Frank.

Frank Turner - We Shall Not Overcome

ps - happy new year!
