that music meme...
So, I'm doing that music meme that's been floating around, seen first by me courtesy of buncha_cruncha. I guess the premise is that I upload 10 songs for y'all (I don't think I'll ever be comfortable using the word "y'all") and with a little bit of background as to why they are so special to me. So here goes...
1. Shawn Hlookoff - She Could Be You
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It's got such an old-time feel, and the lyrics are brilliant.
2. Laura Marling - New Romantic
I adore this girl's voice too much.
3. The Hush Sound - Hurricane
Melancholic but beautiful. I adore The Hush Sound's 'sound', with male and female vocals complimenting each other throughout their albums.
4. Landon Pigg - Falling in Love at a Coffee Shop
I've always wanted to fall in love at a coffee shop, so this song is sort of perfect, IMHO.
5. M.I.A. - Bird Flu
EVERYONE NEEDS M.I.A. IN THEIR LIVES. This is my favourite song by her. She's rad.
6. The Avett Brothers - If It's The Beaches
I was obsessed with this song this year. The vocals are, oooh, so moving.
7. Laura Marling - Tap At My Window
Another Laura Marling song. I love that her singing reminds me so vividly of my own thoughts.
8. The Hush Sound - Love You Much Better
Gosh, the catchiness of this song overwhelms me that I physically start dancing the second it comes on.
9. She & Him - Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?
M. Ward's genius coupled with Zooey Deschanel's gorgeous voice. She & Him was thus born.
10. Carrie Underwood - All-American Girl
This is my favourite country song, and trust me, I am not a fan of country at all. But this song spans decades, and I love it.
I love how much music moves me. Enjoy the tunes. :)
