Show #3

Show #3!

•123 Stop by The Postelles was going to be in the last show, but it seemed like a perfect song to open up with. It makes me want to get up and dance like it's the 50s. Why can't I live in another decade just for a few days?

•When We Were Animals by Data_recovery.... this song is pretty good, but I really don't understand why this band added an underscore to their band name.

•Kill The Light by Kitten. FREEINDIE.COM, I LOVE YOU. I can get picky with female singers in general, but I really enjoy this band. Sort of remind me of Florence + the Machine (who will be in the next show actually).

•Back of Your Neck by Howler. I think I actually found a recommendation of this band in Blender Magazine...wait no, Blender doesn't even exist anymore. Kerrang? Q? Man, I don't even remember what magazine it was anymore. But I was doing an assignment for my marketing class reading whatever magazine it was.

•Bears by Sam Issac. Thanks, Grooveshark. I still like you more than Spotify (it this was twitter I would hashtag it #unpopularopinion)

•I Get High by Fastball. I think that songs about getting high are super cliche, but this was my favorite song by this artist musically so I had to play it. Seeing the name I thought it would be some poorly done, joke song, but you know what? They sound amazing. Actually, very much like Counting Crows. Pretty sure I found them on a Counting Crows Grooveshark station.

•Paralyzed by Rock Kills Kid. This band reminds me of the Dandy Warhols (just wait for the next show's playlist!).

•Ordinary World by Get Set Go was found on a Grooveshark station. I bought it on itunes. Yeah, I still buy music, thank you very much.

•Montreal Calling by Mobile. Is a Canadian band. In the next playlist you'll hear more about my love for Canadians. For now, listen to this band.

•Mirage by The Relay Company. This band was suggested to me by my friend, Mackie. Not a huge fan of the singer's voice but this song is super catchy, I can't help but like it. Minus the dubstep part....

•Rails by Dave House really reminds me of Meet Pause, a band from New Jersey who I've played on the show before (and I've also booked to play the co-op March 16th).

•Young Love by I Love Monsters is a fun song, but once again, what is up with these band names??

•This Is What Rock N Roll Looks Like by Porcelain Black. Uhhh so this song. I don't even know. I actually found this song through somebody else's blog for this very Social Media class. I have a love/hate relationship with it. I don't really understand why a pop artist is singing about rock and roll (but I guess she isn't the first to do it), but it's so catchy (there I go again with that word, "catchy"). But Lil' Wayne being featured in this song. Why? Just why?

•And this lovely playlist ends with a song requested by my friend, Adrian, Now That We Found Love by Heavy D. Takin' it back to his younger days.
