We Were Once A Fairytale..

Kanye West's short film by Spike Jonze.
I thought it was pretty well-done for whatever reason this film was made in the first place. Suppose its worth approximately 11 minutes of your day.

Taken By Trees cover of Animal Collective-"My Girls"

The other day when I was furiously "running" clothes around my job, listening to the same songs they play time and time again on our station, I heard a cover of Animal Collective's-"My Girls." It's from Merriweather Post Pavilion, which is one of my favorite albums of the year so far.

Did a bit of research, it's by Taken By Trees-"My Boys"



PS. I guess this band has an affinity for cover songs because I also found this one of "Sweet Child O Mine." I approve.

Living With Michael Jackson

I just now watched this documentary. I feel as though everyone has seen it, and I just never did. Not really sure. I have yet to watch it in its entirety but bits and pieces with a friend. She gave me a burned copy, and I plan to watch the whole thing and fully analyze it later.

It puts a lot into perspective about how Michael Jackson was.
I could sit here and ramble about all the of the things that he said for while probably..but I'm simultaneously watching the Phillies.

The Roots-How I Got Over

Diane Birch

When I fall, I fall hard. This is rare in and of itself but naturally-- it can pose several problems in matters of the heart.
But in my musical soul; it doesn't.

What I mean is, I listened to Diane Birch for the first time today. It took me some 5 minutes to decide that I was already obsessed.

Her voice is fantastic, and she's gorgeous. Like a lovechild of Joni Mitchell, Cat Power, and Feist. Please do yourself a favor and get her album Bible Belt. So many beautiful harmonies, piano, and string sections. Love, love, love.
