Slumdog Millionaire

How good was that movie!

O Saya by A R rahman and M.I.A. is definitely the stand out track on the Soundtrack for me. One of my faves from M.I.A.

If only it went on longer!

Santigold

I have had Santigold's self titled album since summer, and only recently have I been listening! It is Great.

My faves are Anne, Starstruck, I'm A Lady, Shove It, You'll Find A Way .... I think I love them all!


If you don't have her album yet, go get it!


Here is Anne



Starstruck


I'm A Lady

Big Bills

Below is Big Bills by Flosstradamus featuring Caroline Polachek. Carolyn is the singer from Chairlift.

Lovers Electric

I spent all day going blog to blog looking for some new music.

I had some luck!

Here is a band from Australia, Lovers Electric. Their album isn't available in Canada yet.. boohoo!

This is the video for Could This Be

Chairlift

Happy Holidays :)
I love this song! Someone had asked me who sang the song from the newest Apple Ad and I didn't know, so I looked into it. It was Chairlift and I decided to check out their album and took an instant liking to the song below!



Here is Bruises, the song in the Apple ad.

Band Of Horses

I can't imagine ever getting sick of this song! This song is from Band Of Horses 2006 album Everything All The Time

Our Swords

With Every Heartbeat Live in Brussels

I love love love this live version of With Every Heartbeat by Robyn. The Orchestra is a great addition to this song!

Enjoy!

Patrick Watson

.. and finally a singer that doesn't have any girl parts.


Patrick Watson (lead singers name, but also the name of the band) are from Montreal. Love their album, Closer To Paradise. Drifters and Luscious Life are two favourites.


Here is Drifters

Oh no.. here I go!

So for the last couple months or so I have been going crazy for Ladyhawke's Dusk Till Dawn.

To all that I have made listen and watch me dance a million times to this song, I'm sorry!!


Do do do do do do do do bang bang bang on the wall from dusk till dawn.....

How can you not dance to this!!

Watch for the lovely Sia Furler to make an appearance.

Oldie but a Goodie!

Let's go back to May 2002.



I'm in my "quaint" basement apartment getting ready. I have MTV 2 on in the background. This is back when MTV2 played great music, no radio stuff, no reality tv. This song starts playing and I drop everything I'm doing. I'm staring at my television is awe!!
I loved the song, I loved the video. I had to know more. I wrote down the band's name and headed straight to Mic Mac Mall and made a purchase that would change my life. Zero 7's Simple Things. Sounds extreme, but it's true :)


Here is Destiny

Help I'm Alive

Ooooh it's been too long! Three long years and we finally have a new material from Metric! New album will be released sometime early 2009. That day will be Christmas x 1000000! CBC Radio 3 says the new album won't disappoint.

Here is their new one, Help I'm Alive

Florence And The Machine

Florence And The Machine - one of three Artist who has an album being released in 2009 that I can't wait for! (The other two being Metric and Jenn Grant)

This will be her first full length album. I have high expectations!

Here is Dog Days Are Over

Valery Gore

Oh what a great find! I was listening to the CBC Radio 3 podcast yesterday and heard Valery Gore for the first time. I immediately went to the iTunes store and purchased her album, Avalanche For Wandering Bear.




Hard to pick what song to play, but here is Angora.

Jenn Grant

In order to start this off right, I need to show you my favourite singer out there.

Jenn Grant. This Lady is beyond fabulous!

Here is Dreamer
