Diamond Messages - Liquid Summer
Originally heard this as part of a GoPro user Video of the Day. Found this full song video though. It's kind of weird.
The Way - Billy Goodrum (There's Something About Mary)
Straight off of the credits of There's Something About Mary... a very catchy tune.
Van Morrison - Sweet Thing
Van Morrison is a badass. I don't know how I haven't shared any of his music yet. How about a double dose? These are two of my favorites.
The Wilderness Downtown Video. Power of HTML5. Music: Arcade Fire - We U...
I love Arcade Fire. Still one of my top three shows. So happy they won Best Album.
Three Dog Night-One Is The Loneliest Number
Three Dog Night was one of the first bands that my dad and I could agree on. The other was Flogging Molly. We took a really long road trip to a family reunion back when I was 16. Those two CD's were played the most, because we couldn't agree on much else.
My, how the times have changed!
Local Natives - Airplanes
I saw these guys perform as they passed through Pullman WA. Edward Sharpe was supposed to play at that show too... but he called in sick. :/
Back on the Local Natives - This band is getting bigger and bigger. Makes me proud to support the local music scene!
Sean Hayes- Rosebush Inside (Morees Bickham)
This song reminds me a few artists. Sometimes I think thats a bad thing, and then other times I think its a cool thing.
RJD2 "Work It Out" music video
Another great track from RJD2. The real reason I shared this though is the video. Bill Shannon didn't let life hold him back from doing what he loved to do. The world needs more inspiring people like this in it.
Moby "Flying foxes"
Originally heard this song used in a student produced piece here at UI a couple years ago. Took me a while to realize it was Moby...
Smoke & Mirrors
RJD2 has some of the best beats ever. I also really like this fan video of 8mm footage shot on a trip to NY.
Elliott Smith-Twilight
Another great track from Elliot Smith. I've shared this with a handful of people. I've also used it to help lull me into a deep, amazing sleep.
Elliott Smith - Between The Bars
Elliot Smith will go down as one of the most influential musicians of my time. I'm sad he's not around any more, but sometimes I just think that people are put here to serve a purpose... Elliot Smith and Curt Cobain types alike, are here to accomplish greatness. Who's to say that if they were still here that they'd still be making great music?
That's kind of a morbid thought/statement, but I've thought about it that way a few times. Look at the other people in the genre and era of these people. Very few stayed true to their roots and continued making music they way they wanted to.
Kristin Hersh - Me And My Charms (live)
My good friend Kyle Pettingil shared this with me. What an amazing, raw, and emotional song. My kind of music.
