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. Just some weekly tracks I want someone to hear. Download and listen.

Amanda Palmer - Oasis
Shame on me for never picking up Amanda Palmer's soloalbum "Who Killed Amanda Palmer" before now, it's awsome! This song? Aww, so cute... Eh, wait.. What?? lol

Björn & Benny - Kära Gamla Sol
The sun was shining, the snow was glistening and suddenly this old tack popped up on my ipod. It was part of an ABBA discography I added a while ago, but I'd actually never heard this track before. Felt extremely fitting for the moment.

France de Griessen - I Want to Be You
This is used in the trailer for Bruce LaBruce's upcoming zombie-flick. Had to buy it because of the angry chorus, hehe. KimGordon/CourtneyLove vibes?

Blonde Redhead - Spring And By Summer Fall
I thought I had everything with Blonde Redhead, but I had completely missed most tracks from their album "23" (2007). I therefore lived years not knowing I still hadn't heard the best song they've ever done. Well, better late than never! (thankyou random behind-the-scenes fashionshow-video)

Tokyo Police Club - Be Good (RAC Remix)
An addiction for weeks! It was used to present the CO-OP Barneys New York Fall '09 Premium Denim collection in this video. At first I watched the video cuz it features models Cole and Ash, and then a trillion times more cuz of the music, before I finally managed to find the track, hehe.
LET'S BACKTRACK!
Been too busy/lazy for updates here, but as the weeks have gone on I've made a list of what songs I've ment to list. Now they're up!

Pogo - UPular
This guy is a frickin' genius. He takes small soundbites from a film and makes music of it, in this case the Disney Pixar film 'Up' (You can watch the video here). His most poplar track is 'Alice' (Disney's 'Alice in Wonderland') but it looks like he had to take the video down from the Tube :P You can still download the mp3 from his site though, along with a bunch of other creations.
