Such a good song. I heard someone refer to this as an “oldie” the other day. If it’s an oldie than I’m an oldie and I am definitely not an oldie.

The Talking Heads “Road to Nowhere”

I just got a ukulele last night! I am going to learn to PLAY this thing. Eddie Vedder’s ukulele album provides so much inspiration to learn certain songs. I just bought it and it has a booklet with all of the lyrics too. I promise not to inundate you with videos of recordings of me playing. I’ll just provide you with my youtube link every so often. You get 2 songs today because I am excited.

Two of the songs I want to learn….

“Tonight you Belong To Me” (feat Cat Power)

“Dream a Little Dream”

Ukulele Songs - Eddie Vedder

Yppah

Ahhh, so good!!! Atmospheric, beautiful, beats, lush, love.

This one is from allllll the way back in 1996. The year I graduated high school. It absolutely still stands up today. It would make a great background instrumental piece for a scene of people doing city type stuff in the afternoon leading into the night. That’s what I see here. Or a great sneaker commercial.

The Mellowtrons “I Want You So Mad Because You’re Bad”

From Chairlift’s new album Something. Sit and give it a thorough listen. You might not love it right up front, but it will become something you want on repeat on a Saturday (or Tuesday) afternoon.

Something - Chairlift

Happy Chinese New Year! The year of the dragon… A year of cleaning house, transformation, change and expansion.

Meditation and other practices that deepen your relationship with the Unseen world will go a long way in helping you remain calm, clear, and connected throughout this year’s profusion of inner and outer transformations.

Plastic Beach - Gorillaz

Super easy Sunday song.

Mocky “Somehow Someway” (feat Feist)

Oh hey Day 300, you sure got here fast!

This couldn’t be a more perfect song. It makes me SO happy..Junior Parker makes me so happy. He’s just talking to his dog, and to some chick and singing and stuff…that’s it. Simple, beautifully produced and written blues. Love.

If you don’t know who he is, it is time you go listen to him.

Junior Parker “Funny How Time Slips Away”

Funny How Time Slips Away (Digital Only) - Junior Parker

We lost a powerhouse female singer today. Rest in Peace Etta James, may your voice carry on forever.

The Essential Etta James - Etta James

I love the playful yet haunting melody of this song. It is totally creeping up on you.

Up Past the Nursery - Single - Suuns
