Solange is officially sublime. One of my coolest friends showed this video to me (thank you Maya, for helping me keep up with music). Her little dances and the styling of this video just do it for me. Plus look at that hair!
...Yeah, so I haven't been blogging enough these days but that should change in a month or five. I promise it's with good reason :)
This video is not the usual generic stuff, ( oh how I can hear the resounding accusation that i'm a hipster) but I love it! At first you may be like, um, woah what the Santa Claus but hang in there, its actually quite awesome and the message at the end of the video is so funny.
I absolutely adore Princess Chelsea, and this duet is so adorable (see what I did there, hardy har!) and this song just gets stuck in your head. Warning Earworm!
Here is New Zealand lady, Princess Chelsea with The Cigarette Duet.
I love Alpine when I found them I think I overstayed on Youtube, their sound is so surreal and yum (i'm out of adjectives)
It just feels like i'm eating dreams with my eyes!!!! Mmh... that sounds weird.
So before I sound weirder here's Aussie band Alpine with the song Villages.
Here is Brit band Metronomy with "The Bay".
My gosh, I love this song, such a summer playlist kindda song, you know those days where you're languishing at work or home bored to death and you're minds just feeling kindda escapist...
Ugh, I need a holiday!!
Thanks to the awesome up-to-date sister I have, I heard this yesterday. Well actually I heard the older version but I heard this version just now and I love it. I love both the original and the remastered versions, actually. Is that okay to say these days??
I wonder if you could get pregnant from just listening to song.
I have been meaning to post this but I always forget.
Who is a fan of South African duo Liquideep? You might have heard the song "Still" but not seen the video (or maybe you have, who cares i needed to post this)
So....
For your viewing pleasure Liquideep : STILL
I really like the way its so...chilled and the lady in the video... so fashionable or what? I really can't believe i missed them at Blankets and Wine, I hope they stop by again (after exams anyway) its on my must attend list. I bet some of you guys went, i must say, I am jealous!
There is something deeply poignant about Lana Del Rey's voice... Its like a nostalgic melody that you thought you only once remember hearing because it reminded you of something important and its haunted you all the while... Forgive me people I'm obsessed with music. This is the root of all Indie music
Besides doesn't she look like someone plucked her from a Wes Anderson film or an artistic movie from 1963?
She's like a really sad angel, a really stylish one.
I want to be a vintage picture.
So for your viewing pleasure...
Lana: Video Games- this reminds me of Marilyn, Elvis, Heath Ledger and pictures with friends
Lana: Born to Die: I think of flower children, Brigitte Bardot, leather jackets and the fact that i need a car!
Lana: Blue Jeans- reminds me of the sixties, trailer parks, James Dean and Chezza's Tattoo.
I know she says James Dean in this video, but i swear i had thought of it way before the video ended. This video is so good girl meets bad guy meets a terrible death meets an amazing movie i could have watched from the Cannes Film Festival.
