Awesome Cover
I am DIGGING this Temper Trap cover by Ellie Goulding of Sweet Disposition. I can't stop listening to it.
Foo Fighters
Totally forgot about this video. One of my favorite Foo Fighters songs, and videos. Their videos are always hilarious. Love it.
Gotye Cover
I'm sure by now everybody has heard the Gotye song 'Someone That I Used To Know'. It came out last year, but it seems to be becoming quite popular in the last few weeks. I've heard quite a few covers over the last few months, some good...some not so good. Well a friend posted this a cappella version on Facebook and it might be my favorite cover that I've heard so far. I had to do a little research on the group. I will admit I hadn't heard of them before. I guess they were one of the groups on that show The Sing Off.
And just in case you live in some cave or under a rock formation of sorts, here's the original ;)
Keane
I realize I haven't posted for a few days....been kinda crazy around here.
But my favorite band in the whole world announced the release date for their new album this morning along with a little video, so I had to share that. Based on the sound clips in the video it sounds really great and I'm so excited!!!

Kate Havenik
I've always been a huge fan of Kate Havenik. She's a unique artist. Her latest album came out last week and I finally had a chance to listen to it. I think this is probably my favorite song on the album.
indie rock day
It was an indie rock kind of day. Well...I have a lot of those days. :o)
I've discovered these guys recently and I really like them a lot.

Adele
In honor of her sweeping all her categories that she was nominated for at the Grammy awards I'm posting this video. Which happens to be a pretty awesome music video in my opinion. When this album came out in early 2011 I said that I knew it was kind of early in the year to make such a claim, but I thought that it was going to be one of the best albums of the year. Well indeed it was. And she now has the Grammy to prove it. It was definitely my favorite album of 2011 and will probably remain among my favorites of all time.
Australian group
Loving this new group I found. And this song is really good. I generally tend to not listen to lyrics when I first listen to new songs because I get so into the actual melody of the song, but for whatever reason with this song the lyrics really grabbed me.
Old School...
Today I'm going old school. This is one of my all time favorite songs. Judge me if you want....I don't care :o)
LOVE!
The Fray's new album comes out today. I haven't had a chance to listen to the whole thing yet....but one song caught my eye, and I listened to it right away with the hope that it might be, but not expecting it to actually be, a cover of the Yeah, Yeah, Yeah's song. In fact it was. And I am in love.
Ingrid Michaelson
If you are not familiar with Ingrid Michaelson.....well, shame on you. She is one of the few actually talented pop artists these days. I've had the pleasure of seeing her live and she is fantastic. Her new album came out a couple weeks ago and it is great. This was the first single that was actually released a couple months ago. Check it out =)
Another Rumer....
I know I already posted a Rumer song this week....but I've been so obsessed with her album. It's so amazing. And if you are close to me, and know about stuff going on in my life right now, you will understand how important this song is to me right now.
Matt Corby
So I guess this guy was the runner up back in 2007 on the Australian version of American Idol. All I know is he's hot. He has an accent. He plays the guitar. And he can sing.
And I love this song:
Could it be.......
Karen Carpenter reincarnated??????
I mean seriously....this girl sounds SOOO much like her it's uncanny. And this particular song just screams the Carpenters.
I've totally been digging her whole album. I had posted the first single on facebook the other day. But the whole album is so good. If you are a fan of The Carpenters you should check her out. Good stuff. :)
