'Starry-eyed' Cover--its good!

Takk

ive been obsessing over harpsichords lately. i mean, ive always loved them, but, just listening to them (a lot) again. (my friend just introduced me to that song 'golden brown'). anyway, so i started listening to 'scary' again, then came across this: one of my all time fav. bjork songs (so is 'scary').

Yeasayer (cont.)

..their sampling is pretty (truly) ingenious. subtle, sneaks in..horses' 'nays'..! WOW i'll never hear them the same again

they (at least the song 'love me girl') reminds me of a cross between michael jackson and new order

HOT 99.5 (discussion)/Yeasayer

so this morning (yesterday morn.), they were having a discussion on songs that sound similar, or 'song doppelgangers' as ive just made up, anyway, it was a really interesting discussion, as i'm constantly (already) doing this. i could go on and on, but the one that springs to mind is the yyys/bloc party one.

oh and i just discovered yeasayer today ('love me girl'). its pretty safe to say i am addicted (to that song). ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh now i wanna go to virgin fest

how am i just now discovering this?

Stumbled upon..

..this is actually pretty recent..stumbled on it doing a general search..came from here..http://bjork-chile.blogspot.com/

This by the way..

is a really interesting bjork article. i'll elaborate later (on why/my reactions), b/c i feel many ways about the things she's saying. but, it definitely turned my wheels and got me thinking. i could read bjork interviews all day-she always has something insightful to say-always such a perspective on things (and i dont speak from being a fan alone) i really do do feel this way and always have. so..wisdom-atic!(?)

When it comes to arcade fire..

i have no complaints. although 'funeral' will always reign in my book, i have no complaints. i can't complain. i appreciate them so much. as much now as i did when i first discovered them (in 04-on conan). they are truly a 'modern' rock band and, have re-invented rock. gratitude for arcade fire..and that ive gotten to see them twice now

currently listening to:..arcade fire!:) (for the record) 1st fav. was 'suburbs continued' followed by 'suburban wars', my 3 favs. are those two plus 'we used to wait'

'How Do You Know'

excited for that movie-just watched the trailer. (more paul rudd!)

Apple Store-Wilco

so was in the apple store last night killing time (waiting for mom). it's become like my new 'tower', i checked out new wilco and i have a new appreciation for them. in some of their stuff it reminds me of arcade fire (and so does his voice). i liked 'deeper down' a lot. anyway, i was also listening on these new Bose headphones that eliminate outside noise-omGGG, new wishlist item (for only 300$!). anyway, sound was amAZING, and i want an iTouch more than ever. it also introduced me to new katy perry (circle the drain) i kinda dig it.

i went on a walk the other day, and was reminded of this..

Arcade Fire-follow up II (+daily show)

just caught arcade fire on the daily show..they had 2 drummers..cool (regine on drums!) i've always fantasized about 'choirs' of drums #cool

also, i saw them last week! (again!) last time was in 05 in nyc's central park. david bowie guested..no tix so we had to sneak in from 'behind', saw them 'backstage' so to speak.

happy fall!

also, theresa andersson was on 'real world' tonite, woohoo!

..i also like the song in this video
