~what SONG(Z) are you currently obsessed with?~

[MarieElise]

Yeah I hear that similarity too. I just really like the vibe of songs like these, glad you like it too.
Maybe it's the background banjo, reminds me of Mumford & Sons now that I think about it. Hmm

That might be what's getting me too. Love the sound of the banjo.

One Way - Wille And The Bandits:

Rafferty - Save Me Some Sunshine:

 

[MarieElise]

I LOVE this one. However in my mind I replace all the she pronouns with "he"/ "his" etc.
So I hear like "I met a bad bitch at the D, let me tell you how I made him leave with me" or I'll hear "Shake that ass for me, shake that ass for me, c'mon Boy shake that ass for me"
"I want a bitch to sit at the crib w no boxers on..."
You get the picture hehe.

Maybe there should be 2 versions of every song with themes like that, you're onto something there

FKJ & Masego - Tadow​

Really like that one, smooth and mellow and without lyrics, easy to just enjoy without distraction

Here's a live version from KEXP- I Dare You by The XX:
If it's possible to have a 'voice crush', then I definitely have one for Romy's. Oh, and also for Hannah from London Grammar (but I digress)
I've long admired anyone who can sing (especially as beautifully as she does) and play an instrument at the same time.
I can sing and play, but not well enough together - no matter how hard I try.

Yeah, it's so beyond relaxing. I'm trying to find more like it, so I don't have to listen to it 20 times in a row lol

That does sound very difficult. My bf can play guitar and sing, but he usually just does one or the other. All the men in his family are convinced that men who play guitars get all the women, they go around saying "show me a man who doesn't play guitar, and I'll show you a man who's GF I can steal". Anyways they all spend a lot of time practicing, I'm about to start myself too haha. But I digress...

Didn't know you liked Tame Impala - and very apt to have some Aussie music today, it's Australia Day here
Do you know this one, Lost In Yesterday ?
I just find the video fascinating to watch!

Lol no I hadn't heard it, but I like this one too. The video's kinda like an AA meeting gone very wrong (but with way nicer snacks!)
Oh it's supposed to be a wedding? Hahahahahahahahahahaha.
Stream of consciousness - it looked like a fancy AA meeting
Whoops, went down the community center, went in the wrong door for the AA meeting, came back married & relapsed

Thanks so much, I bet I'll love this one too

 

[MarieElise]

Alright since I'm already here, and it's Sat...
might not be everyone's thing.
I don't know why this shocks me, but I just can't believe Vandersloot got thrown into a Hiphop song. A lot of people aren't gonna follow that at all.
This must be one of those HipHop tracks for true crime enthusiasts

Whoops, went down the community center, went in the wrong door for the AA meeting, came back married & relapsed

Not quite the same scenario (phew!) but it did prompt a recollection of the first time I visited the US.
Big night out in Vegas, left the hotel the next morning in a rental car, with a rotten hangover, looking for coffee and pancakes.
Followed signs for Drive-Thru and ended up in a drive-in Church service. Many cars in the queue, couldn't do a u-turn, so had to sit through a looooong gospel service before finally getting that much-needed coffee.
