With a mixture of some heavy and light stuff..check out what im listening to (#whatimlisteningto) these days :)
(and hopefully so will you be..)
- Magic- B.O.B ..My guilty pleasure..got to have me one upbeat fun (totally mainstream) song :p this ones just so much fun makes me smile!
The Reeling- Passion Pit .. Have you heard Sleepyhead by Passion Pit? no? Its good! Also if you like the big clavin Harris, he remixed this song..so check that out too..i cant makeup my mind about which one i like better..the original or the remixed one.. so i listen to both :)
- The Reeling- Passion Pit (Calvin Harris Remix)
- Getting Nowhere- Magnetic Man ft. John Legend ..Not what you would usually expect from John Legend, even vocally..but very nicely done!! Magnetic Man has its own charm..dont you think?!
- Acapella- Kelis ft. David Guetta .. Guetta has the beats and kelis just has this amazing raspy voice that catches your attention the minute she starts..for those who are forgetting who Kelis is, "..my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard.." (if you dont like this..change my name to milkshake)
Te Quiero- Stromae .. From the awkward scrawny little belgian guy(of french-rawandan origin) who brought you the world-renowned 'Alors on Danse'..His newest one! Cant really move to this in a club(yet)..im sure some dj out there will remix it soon..but i like it! More wordy than the first (even though i still cant understand it)
- Hold Yuh- Gyptian (Major Lazer Remix) .. Major lazer will always hold a special place in my heart after 'Pon Di Floor'..and the jamaican vibe on this song just makes you want to move man!
- 4th Of July (Fireworks)- Kelis ..still looking for this perfect remix of this song i had once heard..hvnt found it yet..but the originals pretty good too..! Like i said..this lady has a great voice!
Undertow- Warpaint ..If She & Him and The XX got together and had beautiful little Indie babies, they'd be Warpaint! (hint hint you like either of the two bands i just mentioned as their mama/papa..you'll like warpaint)
- Happiness- Alexis Jordon .. cheesy lyrics (theres always one) but somehow after listening to it for the third time, i started liking the "mmm mMmm Mmm" haha i know i sound like a retard but you will know what i mean once you hear it!
- After Dark- The Count & Sinden Ft. Mystery Jets .. Fun song! not a club-type song but definitely listen to it in the car!
- Lissie- When Im Alone (live) ..She is one of Favorites these days!! The passion she sings with Live is unbelievable, doesnt miss a note! I would love to see her live in a small auditorium/hall type of setting.. a big open concert might not do justice! She even Collaborates with Ellie Goulding..Two Women Power Houses! Crazy vocals!!
Basically i found an upside..in re-building my song library i have rediscovered/re-listened to alot of old classics i had hidden in the way back of my mind..and im thouroughly enjoying them once again..here are a few:
Old school NOSTALGIA-
- Numb- U2 ..an essential part of my existence is U2..and this song flies under most peoples radar..not the most commercial of the lot..but one of my favs
- Place your hands- Reef ..What a Fun song!!!
- Jump Around- House of Pain ..Everyones favorite!
- Running Up That Hill- Kate Bush ..another great classic!
Big Poppa- Notorious B.I.G ..Biggee Smallz and Puff Daddy(the original none of this new P didy shizz)..true old school brilliance! If you disagree..kill yourself!
- Cherry Lips- Garbage ..N'uff Said! Who doesnt like Garbage? Shame on you! Do you Dare shun the classics from our time?
Can you imagine i say our time and classics in teh same sentense..makes me feel ancient..im not!
..MushaBoom!
