I need some help here from my brother because this reminds me of someone he introduced me to in the early 2000’s and I can’t pinpoint it. But since I can’t pinpoint it at the moment, I will just say this is some good stuff. I stumbled upon it on Soundcloud which has become my favorite source for finding awesome music. Folky goodness with dreamy vocals filled with beauty, and mystique. Let the Mermaid captivate you.
Yay!!!!! A new Goat Song. I am so excited this is finally available for me to listen to on U.S. soil. I was so bummed the other day when they announced its release and Spotify denied my ears the of this awesomeness. Goat is probably my favorite psych rock by far! Still really bummed that I missed them play because of being sick. Goat please come baaaaahhhhhckk! (I hope you guys got my joke there). I will now go dance around my office like a banshee!
Indie rock goodness for your Monday morning. Makes me wish I could leave work now and go back to the beach!
I love the cello and I also love Linnea Olsson. I’ll have to wait to feature a song with her cello playing another time. Her recently released video for her song “Breaking and Shaking” is a pop spectacular. In this song she incorporates guitar and drums rather than the use of her cello. Her sweet vocals and the percussion beat make me want to get up dance shake and clap like Carlton from Fresh Prince of Bel Air. This song is magnificent.
Sometimes I get in the mood for a little pop punk. Actually, this has been the only version of “Happy” that I have been able to listen to multiple times. Add in a fun time video full of silly dance moves and you get my attention. Monday Kills from Jönköping, takes the song and adds a little pop rock twist making it listen worthy in my opinion. Good job guys!
I think it’s about time I go back to taking you into Friday with a dancey pop tune. So here you guys go. I haven’t featured Say Lou Lou yet because I hadn’t found a song that just fit. This lovely song featuring Norway’s Lindstrøm will make you jump out of your seats and start dancing. Who cares if you’re at work, take a break from your chair and shake those bididbibomboms. I think I will be playing this at my birthday party next week.
What was something I learned last week? The band Europe is Swedish. So this makes this Throwback Thursday extra awesome as I get to post a song that has made me laugh, have fun over the years, “The Final Countdown” Hair metal at its best!
So there are two versions of this song, the synth poppy greatness that got first grabbed my attention a few months ago and a piano version. Just ethereal vocals and beautiful simplistic piano, Call Me’s new song change is magnificently glorious. For a whole week I debated what version I was going to post and finally decided to go with the piano version. It’s raw, lovely and hits me in my little heart.
Dark vocals, mixed with a happy synth beat make Molly Nilsson’s new release awesome. I imagine myself listening to this crossing the bridge from Manhattan into Brooklyn and looking out the window of the subway train smiling. Such a great heartfelt song.
I had Hello Saferide on my Throwback Thursday list, but you can’t imagine how excited I got last week when I was writing my blog to find she released a new song. Her six year hiatus was well worth it. This is a simply divine fun pop song!
