Music Love: Oh Land Edition

Suddenly find myself listening to this a lot lately. I'm in love with her voice (and hello, her gorgeous style). And I'm in love with the balloon-filled stage in the video below. Enjoy!

Artist: Oh Land

Album: Oh Land

Song: "Wolf and I"

Music Love: I'm a 90's B&*$#

Did everyone else who watches HBO's Girls immediately find this song and dance around like a fool after watching Sunday's episode?! I'm 100% guilty.

Endless pleasure...

Love this video. This band is superb live. Cannot wait to see them again.

Artist: Tesseract (with new vocalist Elliot Coleman)

Song: "Eden 2.0"

Let the sun beat down upon my face...

I've been listening to Led Zeppelin quite a lot lately. Hence, the following lyrics..

     "Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dream,
         I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been,
           To sit with elders of the gentle race this world has seldom seen,
             They talk of days for which they sit and wait, and all will be revealed.

       Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace, whose sounds caress my ear,
         But not a word I heard could I relate, the story was quite clear.

       Oh, I been flying... Mama, there ain't no denyin'
         I've been flying, ain't no denyin', no denyin'

       All I see turns to brown, as the sun burns the ground,
          And my eyes fill with sand, as I scan this wasted land,
             Trying to find, trying to find where I've been.

       Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace, like thoughts inside a dream,
          Heed the path that led me to that place, yellow desert stream,
             My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon, I will return again,
                Sure as the dust that floats high in June, when movin' through Kashmir.

       Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails, across the sea of years,
          With no provision but an open face, along the straits of fear.

       When I'm on, when I'm on my way,
       When I see, when I see the way, you stay...
       When I'm down,
       Well I'm down, so down...
       Oh my baby, let me take you there.

       Let me take you there. Let me take you there."

               Led Zeppelin
               Song: "Kashmir"
               Album: Physical Graffiti

"Better get your drink on, get it from the kitchen, because after midnight, we startin' Prohibition!"

If you like Boardwalk Empire, you need to watch this. 

Music soothes my soul...

Listen to Karnivool. They are wonderful. This song is so beautiful to begin with, but the acoustic version is very soothing. Enjoy! 

My love affair with music...

Band: Battles
Album: "Gloss Drop"
From the moment I hit play, I was immediately put in a good mood, feeling as if I was at a carnival with the cheery melodies produced in this album. 




And check out my absolute favorite tune from their first album, "Atlas," below. Guaranteed to make your foot tap to the beat.
