and now for a rather significant digression...

1 | i finally gave in. and got an iPod.

2 | idk if you guys are into A Fine Frenzy or not, but she just released a new album. i am still slightly unimpressed w/ this new one, esp given how good the first one is, but "Blow Away" definitely grew on me after i watched the super cute video. i'm a sucker, what can i say.

3 | i have Mochi the Bear! whose turn is it to have him now?

going for a record

anyway, i can't believe i haven't posted about these lovely ladies yet.
with all the rain that's been happening here in the great city of the stars, the weather has been perfect for loving Priscilla Ahn ("Rain," "Wallflower," "Red Cape").

also, Meiko has a similar style, but this is definitely one of the best songs i've heard in a while. it's all about the lyrics.

Joshua Radin

So I am a big fan of the style of music Joshua Radin happens to fall under. Call it whatever you want. Anyway, his song "They Bring Me to You" is a current fav. So sweet :) Hey guys, have some mercy. Sometimes it's time to be sappy.

taste change

so my main playlist right now centers around: MGMT - "kids", the virgins - "hey, hey girl", lady gaga - "summerboy", daedelus - "my beau" and "make it so", devotchka - "how it ends", MSTRKRFT - "chromeo - tenderoni", phantom planet - "do the panic," etc.

there are others, of course, but these are the ones i can remember off the top of my head (:
albums i'm enjoying: jimmy eat world - chase this light (especially the song, "dizzy"), all anberlin albums, and i'm trying to listen to all of the new bloc party album, intimacy, but so far i've only really listened to a couple of tracks ("mercury", "ion square"). but yeah. check that stuff out, ladies. gone are the days when my main music influence was basically jimmy, and my daily playlist contained mostly thursday, thrice, coheed, a7x, etc. blah blah time passes, things change, tastes differ, etc. sorry, pooks :/ right now i'm very much into chill mellow music, and things with a beat you can dance to.

enough procrastinating studying, i have work to do.
