I had a section called ‘song of the day’ on my personal site where I listed songs I recently discovered myself and have been listening much to lately (both new and old). Well, decided to give those songs their own little site so here we are. Download and listen.
N.E.R.D. - Everyone Nose
This one showed up on youtube ages ago and I wanted to add it here, but wait for an okay mp3. Well, a good file haven’t showed up yet so fuck it. Ripped this from the tube so the quality isn’t great, but whatever. The track is fricking addictive and even if my first thought was ‘wow, this text is stupid’ I can’t care less, the song is awsome! Btw, I hope the upcoming album is better than ‘Fly or Die’, I wasn’t a big fan of that one. But on the other hand I was crazy in love with ‘In Search Of...’ so maybe my expectations were to big back then..
Missing Persons - Walking in L.A.
This song isn’t new. Not for me and certainly not for the world (I think it’s from 83’ or something?) but it’s been playing in my head for three days for no apparent reason (Thank gawd I like it!) so I thought it might a well end up here since I’m so sucky at updating. Funny thing is that whenever I hear this track - in my head or from other sources - I always thing about the dog in The Dog Problem (The song is playing in a scene where the dog runs through LA) so I’ve had that little thing runnin’ around in my scull since this shit started.. He’s a cutie.
Eddie Vedder - Society
I saw Into the Wild the other day and fell for the soundtrack by Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder. I especially liked ‘Long Nights’ and this track, featuring Jerry Hannan. The text is beautiful, and sadly I am the total opposite of who it is about (But how many of us can say we aren’t.).
For about a year now I’ve been going through some kind of strange phase where I haven’t been very interested in finding new music. I mean, it’s hard to avoid finding new stuff, and I have here and there, but I just haven’t been interested in “working for it”. Music is suddenly not my main interest and that’s very strange and confusing to me. I think it has to do with the fact that everything is available to you on the net, but there is no way you’ll ever get to all of the good stuff even if you try; A very devastating realisation for a “all-or-nothing” person as I am. I know it’s stupid, but that’s how my brain works, and it shuts itself off. It sucks. I miss loving music the way I used to.
Sigmatropic ft. Cat Power - Haiku Ten
It should be forbidden for tv-shows not to have a song-list on their websites. At least the series where the music is a big part of what they are showing, that shit can drive me crazy sometimes. This song was in the latest episode of NBC’s Life and I wasn’t the only one who was looking for it. Took two days for somebody in the forum to name the title, and it wasn’t the easiest song to find after that. But I finally got it (thanks to the Sidekick:). Painfully short but it is so fucking great.
Emilie Autumn - Across The SkyI’m not the biggest fan of the music she’s making, but I think Emelie Autumn is very talented and cooler than most. Not just an image like so many goth-rock-chicks. This track is from her first album Enchant (2003) which in my opinion is her best, and I’ve been listening to it the whole day for some reason. “Across The Sky” is not exactly my favourite track, but since I don’t want to upload the whole album I thought it would be fitting to choose the prologue.
MP3s available for a limited time only and they’re all posted out of love. Artists should be supported so if you like what you hear, do what you can for them. If you own copyright to one of the songs and would like it removed, just contact me and tell me so.
