Song of the Day Liam Finn and Eliza Jane I started listening to Liam Finn a year ago, and I have not really sunk my teeth into his music. This Aussie does create some great songs that have stuck in my head for some time. Songs like Second Chance from his debut solo album I’ll [...]

“Sweet Temptation” by The Temper Trap
Song of the Day This is head and shoulders above any song I have heard in the past 2 months. The Temper Traps create a short, yet powerful rolling epic of a song. In “Sweet Temptation” the lead singer falsetto voice pitches it lyrics at your emotions and the constant build of the song hook-line-and-sinkers [...]
Monday Archives: “RichDoors” by NewVillager
Song of the Day “RichDoors” by NewVillager Listening to “RichDoors” by NewVillager will stick with you for a while. Once done listening, the song will find it’s place in your brain. You will then find yourself humming the tune, but you will not know where you heard it or how it got into your head. [...]
Wednesday Purchase: “Me-Time (With The Pulmonary Palimpsest)”
Song of The Day “Me-Time” by Busdriver The first thing you notice about Busdriver is his machine-gun lyrics and mach three razor speed. You almost need to slow down the track by putting it on your Talk-Boy. But that is what makes the song so endearing, the amazing verbal skills of Busdriver make your head [...]
New Tunes Tuesday: “I Would Be Sad” by The Avett Brothers
Song of the Day I am about to leave for Red Butte Gardens to see The Avett Brothers and I am excited to hear this song. Sorry that this is going to be short, but work was busy and school is coming. So please enjoy. I will tell you all about the concert tomorrow.
Wednesday Purchase: “Rudie Fails” by the White Rabbits
Song of the Day I finally purchased It’s Frightening by the White Rabbits. When I listened to the album online, I was not impressed. Having time with it though has changed my perception of it. I already covered the bands single “Percussion Gun” a couple of months ago. But “Rudie Fails” seems more thoughtful than [...]
New Tunes Tuesday: “The Walls are Coming Down” by Fanfarlo
Song of the Day Well I am staying at Mirth’s house while he is at his family reunion. My hands are dyed blue because of the tie dye I did last night. And I have been watching Mirths dog Bobby Dylan. It is fun, but time consuming. Today’s song is taken from KEXP’s podcast. I [...]
Monday Archive: “The Mummy” by Benji Hughes
Song of the Day When you listen to Benji Hughes sing, it is reminiscent of one of your friends telling you a story. But this is that one friend who has a knack for telling stories, making something like picking a song for a dance seem interesting. There is something unique and wonderful about Mr. [...]
Wednesday Purchase: “Evening Life” by The XYZ Affair
Song of the Day I love this song. I have finally found what to call this music, quirky rock/pop. No offense towards the band, but that is the best way to describe the music. When you have a song about socking you in the face with love that carries some strong quirk (or abuse), and [...]
New Tunes Tuesday: “Lakeside” by the BLK JKS
Song of the Day Tuesday is here. I am dabbling in some new structure for Song of the Day. With New Tunes Tuesday, I am going to try and show some stuff that I have just listened to within the last week. Forcing me to listen to music, and that is a good thing. We [...]
