We can burn brighter than the sun

tunesday

some good ole throw back acoustic

tunesday: 1979

90s throwback goodness by the smashing pumpkins.  listen to it.

tunesday: angus and julia stone

She said "hello mister, please to meet ya"
I wanna hold her, I wanna kiss her
She smelled of daisies, she drives me crazy

no. 11 get a record player

santa brought me a record player for christmas and since then i have been playing dreamy albums on vinyl both old and new.  i love spinning frank sinatra and lighting candles in my room whilst writing letters at my desk or just lying in bed looking at the ceiling. 

i also discovered a local music shop in town with tons of vinyl and cds.  i could spend hours just browsing there.  picked up the black keys on vinyl and a neon indian LP.

crossing off the list.

tunesday: rocco deluca and the burden

swooooooooooooooooooooooooooon

tunesday: sia

tunesday

one of those days where you realize how beautiful life is that it could move you to tears.  warmth of the sun and chill of fresh cool air.  thankful for the simple things.

tunesday: jonsi

jonsi is the leader of sigur ros and composed the soundtrack for the movie we bought a zoo.  it is lovely to the point of tears and sends chills down my spine as i fall asleep at night.  the song intros are idyllic and flowing...hopeful, peaceful and soothing.  i love the song "brambles" because it sounds as if the track is vinyl spinning on a record player.  other favorites: sun, sinking friendships, we bought a zoo...pretty much all of them.  i fell in love with this soundtrack a little bit more than the where the wild things are soundtrack.  it's a close second.

perfect soundtrack to this rainy and dark morning.  happy tuesday!

tunesday: ellie goulding

her first album "lights" is beautiful, poppy, soulful goodness.  this lovely british girl gets double props for also being a nike girl and spokesperson.  i could see myself working out to this album too actually.

noteworthy tracks: lights, guns and horses, salt skin

tunesday: vinyl

so santa brought me an awesome record player for christmas.  i've been playing some of my parent's old vinyl goodness like fleetwood mac and earth wind and fire.  i think a copy of the black keys "el camino" album would be rather lovely as well as florence + the machine "ceremonials".  i love the warm sound and the soothing spinning of the needle.

i'm off to my first pilates class...happy tuesday!

tunesday: young the giant

another swoon worthy indie band
noteworthy tracks: 

• my body
• cough syrup
• apartment

have a listen.

tunesday: coldplay

coldplay is knocking my socks off this week.  i've had all their albums on shuffle as i cleaned and napped this weekend.  i want to get their new album so badly and my room mates and i have been talking about finding them in concert sometime in the near future.

i'm convinced that one of the first slow dances at my wedding (some day) will be "sparks".  that song gives me the chills!  it is eerily beautiful...enjoy!

Tunesday: Local Natives

listening to "who knows who cares" by local natives a TON.  it reminds me of the movie where the wild things are and i love its dreamy and hopeful undertones.

noteworthy tracks: wide eyes, airplane, sticky thread

Tunesday: Bon Iver

Blowing up my ipod before bed this week: Bon Iver self titled album

Hit Track: "skinny love" by definition when two people are in love with eachother but are too shy to admit it. yet they show it

Noteworthy tracks: all of them "creature fear", "flume", "for emma"

Soundtrack to: reading before bed, being sad and thoughtful by choice, candle sessions

Tunesday: Foster the People

lately Foster the People has been blowing up my car stereo, my ipod and my pandora (it's a really great station). I am in love, and the guys are pretty cute too...brownie points/swoon factor

soundtrack to: running on the beach, new sperrys, sunset porch party

most of you may know their hit "pumped up kicks", but i am a huge fan of the whole album.
noteworthy tracks: call it what you want, helena beat, i would do anything for you and miss you
