357/365

Penultimate week of my musical project. See, I only procrastinated a whole month and a half before posting this.

351/365: I'll Try Anything Once, The Strokes.
"When I said I can see me in your eyes, you said I can you in my bed." Song courtesy of Brit.

352/365: Seven Nation Army, Damien Rice.
Very few things bring me as much joy as an exceptionally more musical cover. Another Brit pick.

353/365: Down Down Down, Peter Wolf Crier.
The way he says down sounds like the name of a new Dasher hound breed.

354/365: Teardrops On My Guitar, Taylor Swift.
Wholesome and innocent, obviously I only listen to it ironically.

355/365: The Splendour, Pantha Du Prince.
Calming and instrumental, ideal for studying Canadian law.

356/365: Fuck It, I Love You. Malcolm Middleton.
Accent makes the song. Adorable.

357/365: Truth, Alexander.
"Your darkness is shining, my darkness is shining." I love his voice more than strawberries.

350/365

This week of music can be best be described as Trippy. Also, I actually decided what my favorite King of Limbs song was.

344/365: Angel Dance, Robert Plant.
I'm in a sudo-religious song kind of mood.

345/365: Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains), Arcade Fire.
#NowPlaying

346/365: Dragostea Din Tei, Ozone.
Numa Numa's Mother. Viralicious, also I'm European it's in my blood to love this song.

347/365: Metronomy, The Look.
Now you're giving me the look, look.

348/365: Mouth Full of Diamonds, Phantogram.
1st thought? Sierra Leone diamond diggers anthem. #DontBuyBloodDiamonds.

349/365: White Moon, Beach House.
"Do you want me to want you..."

350/365: Little By Litte, Radiohead.
Little by little by hook or by crook. I’m such a tease. And you’re such a flirt.

50 down, 2 to go.

343/365

Time stamp: This musical play list is from the newspaper release of King of Limbs. Also, I had a damn serious sinus infection - which is equivalent to feeling like your brain is going to explode out of the exact center of your forehead.

 Sourece: WeHeartIt

337/365: Icarus, White Hinterland.
Owl inspired music. As my Boyfriend's mom says whilst handing me misc. owl encrusted presents: "Owls are very in now you know."

338/365: Space Cowboy, Thunderheist.
To be confused with N'sync's song of the same name.

339/365: Little Bitty Pretty One, Thurston Harris.
Feel good music perfected.

340/365: Morning Mr. Magpie, Radiohead.
Unable to choose a favorite song from #KingOfLimbs. This will do for now.

341/365: Happiness, Goldfrapp.
"How'd you get to find love - real love, love, love, love" Boyfriend brought me coconut and won ton soup today. Now that's real love, love, love, love.

342/365: East Side, Smoother.
Convinced 90s pop artists were given a license to 'creep'.

343/365: Dear God, The Roots.
Surprisingly different from their other work. Always a sucker for a good Holiness dialogue tune.

49 down, 4 to go!

A playlist for St. Valentine.

331/365: Helena Beat, Foster The People.
These kids have more than just some pumped up kicks!

332/365: I and Love and You, Avett Brothers.
Three words much easier to say this week. Also, banjos.

333/365: Baby I'm Yours, Breakbot.
At the cusp of incredibly catchy verging on being cheesy. So, in other words, perfect.

334/365: Rill Rill, Sleigh Bells.
Impossible not to have 16, 16, 6 stuck in your head forever. Makes me want to do calculus.

335/365: Drowning Men, Fanfarlo.
"Someone pacing around and round on the floor above, oh we can still afford to not make sense at all."

336/365: Must Have Fallen From The Sky, Glen Gratsfield.
The film Once (featuring this song's creation) is the essence of Ireland's aesthetic appeal.

48 down, 5 to go!

This week of music is a time reference. These tunes were chosen in and around The Grammys.  Don't worry, I will eventually finish reading The Procrastination Equation and then finish blogging this musical year project.

323/365: Same, Snow Patrol.
An ode to my routine.

324/365: 10 Mile Stereo, Beach House.

Wise, this song is. Approve Yoda would.

326/365: Intil Paisagem, Esperanza Spalding.
Amazing, still think it should have been Florence. #Grammys

327/365: The Clap, Infant Sorrow.
You've got the clap, we've got the clap.

328/365: The Cave, Mumford and Sons.
The Grammys really inspired me to remember my previously unmentioned song likes.

329/365: Month of May, Arcade Fire.
Summer song, except it still snows here in May. Oh well.

46 Down, 6 to go!

322/365

This week I rediscovered the power of the radio, simple pleasures.

316/365: Choo Choo Cha Cha, Rinky Dink.
Indicator that I am obsessed with something = I download its entire music soundtrack. #MadMen

317/365: Magic, Joan As Police Woman.
Is it Cry Me A River by JT ? Or is it Verbatim by Mother Mother? Answer: Their beautiful love child.

318/365: Long Time, Cake.
Straight from the original new music source - The Radio - to my Shazam. Brilliant.

319/365: Hello, Martin Solveig & Dragonette.
"I just came to say hello." 90.3 FM is killing it today.

320/365: Verbatim, Mother Mother.
"I wear women's underwear and then I go to strike a pose in my full length mirror..." - ironic verbatim

321/365: Dixon's Girl, Dessa.
A wonderful combination of numerous musical techniques and genres. "It's not much, but my money's on you."

322/365: White Sky, Vampire Weekend.
Song so compelling, turns sky abnormal white color, watched #KingsSpeech again, everything, w/, pauses.

45 down, 7 to go!

315/365

Nudity - the unintentional theme of this week's music. I will argue that all of these songs are either blatant about getting naked or are romantic enough to suggest putting on your birthday suit.

Source: We Heart It

309/365: No I In Threesome, Interpol.
I only listen to this song for its name.

310/365: Nude, Radiohead.
Internet overload is actually giving me vertigo. Listening to this song right now isn't helping. Hallucinating.

311/365: Never Hear Surf Music Again, Free Blood.
"There must be some fucking chemical, chemical in your brain." Intro to 127 hours.

312/365: Lovely Day, Bill Withers.
Just one look at you and I know it's gonna be a lovely day, lovely day, lovely day...

313/365: Ca Plane Pour Moi, Plastic Bertrand.
French song that encourages people to get naked; also it's a very popular media song.

314/365: Million Years, Alexander Ebert.
Keep telling myself he wrote this song about me after our brief encounter.

315/365: Where Else Is There, Royksopp.
"If I am the storm, If I am the one." Still haven't decided if she knows what she's saying.

44 Down, 8 to go! 

294/365

2011 arrived this week, as did my new job and full-time plus schedule. Boyfriend also bought a turntable, thus the theme of "best on vinyl" begins. 

Source: WeHeartIt

288/365: Please Mr. Postman, The Beatles.
This week's top vinyl listen. Everything sounds better on vinyl.

289/365: Toxic, Yael Naim (Britney Spears Cover).
The real way this song was supposed to sound - sensual and vulnerable. Beautiful.

290/365: Rambling Man, Laura Marling.
Let it always be known that I was who I am.

291/265: Cover Your Tracks, Young Galaxy.
"I always said I'd have it all if I could be unborn." Summery percussion for my first hump day at the new job.

292/365: Right Thurr, Chingy.
My thoughts through the entire song: Did 'Dirty' look at hurr? Is Dirty his BFF? What's the story behind the name? This is ridiculous.

293/365: Oh! Centra, Javelin.
Sounds like they're saying Oh! Sanja (incorrect pronunciation), you made a man out of me.

294/365: Peach, Plum, Pear, Joanna Newsom.
"And we were swallowing panic in the face of its force." Graceful/Demonic child sounds.

285/365: I Hope You Die, Wye Oak.
Mix between Beach House and Lyyke Li.

286/365: Gigantic, The Pixies.
And this I know, his teeth as white as snow.

I can't ever learn french, none of its songs will ever sound as instantly romantic.

278/365: Maybe Next Year (X-mas Song), Meiko.
I don't think Santa's coming this year, cause I've been a bad, a bad girl.

279/365: Psychotic Girl, The Black Keys, feat. Intuition.

Once again I leave my grave, leave my grave, leave my grave.

269/365: She's Got You High, Mumm-Ra.
And you don't even know yet.

270/365: Alligator, Tegan and Sara.
Rattled yes, it's true, alligator tears spilled over you.

271/365: Erase Me, Kid Cudi Feat. Kanye West.
Wish I could erase Kanye's name from the contributers line. Great song.

272/365: Coin Laundry, Lisa Mitchell.
Addictive like the smell of freshly laundered clothing. This song is adorable, this video is adorable, this girl is adorable. She looks exactly like a young Audrey Hepburn.

273/365: Teenage Dream, Katy Perry.
This is a criminally guilty pleasure. But it just makes me feel so sexy and juvenile!

I wish I was your favorite girl. I wish you thought I was the reason you were in the world.

264/365: Sporting Life, The Decemberists.

Boyfriend told me to listen to it because it reminds him of me in an "endearing" way... I don't do team sports.

265/365: Don't Take The Girl, Tim McGraw.

Number two of the only five country songs in history that I like. So beautiful.

267/365: No Scrubs, TLC.

Hangin' on the passenger's side of his best friend's ride trying to holla at me.

I hate driving does that make me a scrubella?

A most marvelous week starring my birthday and the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. This is when shit gets really adult.

I was in Ottawa visiting friends, and thus culminated this playlist of party/attemptive study music. All the excitement of being in Canada's capital made me miscount my musical days once more. I always claimed to suck with dates, even current ones.  I skipped 248, and am thus perpetually on Calgary time. How about we get drunk and forget all about it?

Musicians in The Market.

246/365: No Beef, Afrojak and Steve Aoki.
Effed up camel. My party song for the month of November.

247/365: No One's Gonna Love You, Cee Lo Green.
When things start splitting at the seams and now, it's tumbling down, hard.

248/365: Dynamite, Taio Cruz.
I'm suffering from an ailment causing me to throw my hands up in the air sometimes.

249/365: The Strangers, St.Vincent.
Paint the black hole blacker. Sounds like Disney symphonies combined with synth.

250/365: All or Nothing, O-Town.
Is it my attraction to Ashley Angel, or is this song just really really good.

251/365: Knife, Grizzly Bear.
Can't you feel the n-i-nj-nijaf-knife.

252/365: All Fired Up, Interpol.
See I've got this soul, it's all fired up. (Really wish the next line was "Maybe it's just the herpes")

Packed with cognition this week features: study tracks, comparing and contrasting, visualization, categorization, and inquiry. 

Source: WeHeartIt

239/365: Hey Big Bang, Superhumanoids.
Great study song: Slow tempo, soothing voice, indiscernible lyrics.

Now time for some compare and contrast:
240/365: Little Bit, Lykke Li.
"I think I'm a little bit, little bit in love with you."

241/365: Little Bit, 50-Cent.
"All a nigga really needs is a little bit, not a lot baby girl but a little bit."
They're essentially the same song.

242/365: Balloons, Foals.
We fly balloons on this field called love.

243/365: Never Forget You, Noisettes.
Daydreamed what the main singer looked like and I was dead on! Vertically engaged hair and all!

244/365: Girls, Calvin Harris.
I like them tall girls, I like them short girls I like them brown hair girls, I like them blonde hair girls.

245/365: The Lemon Song, Led Zeppelin.
My favorite Zeppelin song. What's yours? #DontSayStairwayToHeaven

231/365: Wilco The Song, Wilco.
Wilco singing about Wilco while I'm listening to Wilco.

232/365: Forget About Dre, Dr.Dre Feat. Eminem.
This hip-hop classic appears to be the only thing that actually makes me focus on MGST.

233/365: Thriller, Michael Jackson.
Would be Halloween pick, but it was belated due to my perpetual hangover.

234/365: Something Good Can Work, Two Door Cinema Club.
Something good can work, and it can work for you, and you know that it will.

236/365: F**k You, Lilly Allen.
What she has to say to certain Bieber fans. I love & support her, actually paid for both of her CDs! :)

237/365: Giving Up, Ingrid Michaelson.
The opposite of what you think the song will be about. This is real romance.

238/365: Money Can't Buy You Class, Countess LuAnn.
It also can't make your voice not sound like a drag queen. Hilarious. The Real Housewives are amongst the most entertaining women alive; click link for the amazing music video.

33 down, 19 to go! 

230/365

Refreshing, a week of almost entirely new listens. Hate it when people keep their new finds to themselves up until the point when the song becomes popular and they pipe up about discovering it first. No alternative music superiority complexes here my friends, just some fresh beats. :)

Source: WeHeartIt

224/365: Body of Years, Mother Mother.
Their songs give you the sense they're having fun playing together, thus spurring dance parties.

225/365: May You Never, Land of Talk.
Worthy of a Twilight Saga soundtrack, that really says a lot.

226/365: Repeaterbeater, Mew.
Sometimes I got nothing to say, nothing to sing about. (Improper grammar is only acceptable in song format.)

227/365: Love Lust, King Charles.
Never let a woman go, even when you know she can always be replaced, she can always be replaced.

228/365: Ambling Alp, Yeasayer. 
Stick up for yourself son, never mind what anybody else does. This has been a PSA courtesy of me.

229/365: Change of Heart, El Perro Del Mar.
Under the category "Chamber Pop" on my iTunes Genius Mixes.

Def: Chamber Pop is a term used in reference to Indie Pop artists like Belle & Sebastian, who are influenced by the 60s Baroque Pop artists.

230/365: Get Some, Lykke Li.
You're very "likely" to love getting some.

This week was edgy; ideal for describing me as a person.

217/365: On The Run, Sam Roberts.
Baby you got me on the run, you have me hiding from the sun.
This is our song and it is also great for running.

218/365: Wamp Wamp /Knife, Girl Talk remix.
This song makes me feel tougher than The Situation's Situation.

219/365: Santeria, Sublime.
This song reminds me of the coolest/kindest guy I used to work with in high school. He told me to read Of Mice and Men.

220/365: Cult Logic, Miike Snow.
A current study track. Made graphing cost relationships exponentially better. Also, it's an oxymoron, yay!

221/365: Rich Doors, New Villager.
Am I high or is this song uber freaking awesome? Perhaps both, uber.

222/265: Always Where I Need To Be, The Kooks.
Cause I'm always where I need to be, and always in the mood for The Kooks. This song always reminds me of my lovely celiac friend - SHOUT OUT!

223/365: We Are The People, Empire of the Sun.
We are the people that rule the world, bustling in every boy and girl.

The songs I was really (Canadian Thanksgiving) thankful for. Also, I'm sure you're all thankful that I still post these even thought they're very outdated, yes, yes, of course you are. 

210/365: I Feel Bonnie, Hot Chip Feat. Bonnie Prince Billy.
Nothing is wasted, heaven is nowhere.

211/365: Throwing Bricks, Florence and the Machine.
Well I'd build you up, but we aren't made of the same stuff.

212/365: Big Bird In A Small Cage, Patrick Watson.
Put a big bird in a small cage and he'll sing you a song.

213/365: I Caught Myself, Paramore.
Everyone has a song that is far from their normal taste, yet they've addicted to it. This is mine.

214/365: 7/4 (Shoreline), Broken Social Scene.
Heard them live on real (Canadian) Thanksgiving weekend, for that I was very thankful.

215/365: I'm Not Calling You A Liar, Florence and the Machine.
I'm not calling you a liar, just don't lie to me.

Leaving me here on my own, it's a cruel, CRUEL, cruel summer.

205/365: Airline to Heaven, Billy Bragg and Wilco.

208/365: I'm Like A Bird, Nelly Furtado.
How cool did I think she was in her orange shirt up in that tree. So cool.

209/365: Blue Lips, Regina Spektor.
Blue, the most human color.
