(And possibly the whole month.)
“Everything is Peaceful Love” Bon Iver
(New single from their upcoming album.) That pick up on “And, damn…” Oh My.
SWOOOOOOOOONtastic, people. Just listen to this. Just do it. Then tell me how your heart feels.
I keep hitting repeat on Patrick James “All About to Change”.
The rhythm of the chorus is just irresistible. I got it here.
“Five Years Time” – Noah and the Whale
There’s whistling, clapping, and happy-making lyrics. Yipee, snow day!
“Airplanes” – B.o.B. featuring Hayley Williams of Paramour.
You know how I love my rap and my pop all mixed up together.
Is Rachael Yamagata part of Company of Thieves? This really sounds like her.
“Young Forever” by Jay-Z and Mr. Hudson (of Mr. Hudson & the Library who you may remember I LOVE a LOT)
Technically Mr. Hudson’s part is a cover of “Forever Young” intermixed with some Jay-Z rap. Love the background music. Love!!
“I Won’t Be Found” – The Tallest Man on Earth
Hear it here in its original and daytrotter versions (the daytrotter is the one I put on repeat). (Found via this post on Fuel/Friends, my all-time favorite music blog.)
Never took the chance, could have jumped the fence
I was scared of my own two feet.
Could have crossed the line, it was black and white
No contrast to be seen.
What would you do? What would you do?
Do you know?
Was it all a joke? Never had control.
I’m not better on my own.
“I’m Not Over” Carolina Liar
-From another old playlist “Flurry of Fall Favorites 2008”. I am really getting some leverage out of old playlists these days.
The Eagles “Peaceful Easy Feeling”
I like the way your sparklin earrings lay
Against your skin so brown
And I want to sleep with you in the desert tonight
With a billion stars all around…
I get this feelin’ I may know you
As a lover and a friend
But this voice keeps whispering in my other ear
Tells me I may never see you again…
I actually have the farthest thing from a peaceful easy feeling right now as I am in the midst of the worst (what has so far been) four-day allergy attack of my motherfucking LIFE. I feel alternately like 1) my cheekbones are about to bust right off my face and / or 2) my entire head is going to EXPLODE. **
Fun times.
