Do-wap de doo




Hey folks,

I'ts my fourth blog post,woo-hoo!.. I did celebrate my third post like I said I would by eating the most delicious brownie from bagels & beans that has a really cute coffee grain on top. But since this is not a blog about food (sadly....maybe I sohuld combine both). I'm gonna start talking about music soon enough.

This thursday i'm going to see a band play, and i'm very excited because it's been a very long time since i have gone to a concert. Last time that I can think of it was almost 6 months ago *shock*...and it was florence and the machine which was by far brilliant.

Well the band i'm going to see this week is called The Cat empire, so ofcourse my brilliant mind thought that I should dedicate this post to them.

First song that i'm going to nominate is called ' days like these'.

Second song that I would like to mention is called ' two shoes'.

They're Australian but the remind me much of home so the concert should be fun.
But the cool thing about them that I miss at home is that they have a mix of jazz infused in their songs, which makes their song by far more interesting.

Okay, so that's all I have for this time. I'm hungry and can only think of food right now..yum yum..

Third time's a charm

So, here I am finishing up a report for school that most people would find it boring enough to actually try to commit suicide.

i'll make this new post a bit more peppy-like than the two first ones. ( oh and btw, if you seem to notice that I seem to be missing the letter M in some words, that could be cause my frigging keyboard has some issues with the letter).

To keep tradition of my writing random things in the beginning of this post rather than talk about music. I am going to say something about myself. Hmmmm, (aha! the M works now). Okay I got nothing, only that yesterday when I went to buy some food to cook (it was exican, yummy). I didn't notice that my wallet was open and in true Lay kuen fashion I let all my coins fall everywhere on the floor while I was in front of the counter. Which ofcourse would equal to a really big line behind me looking like they would like to take out forks and torches to make a little parade for me.

Anyhoo, back to music. First song is from Santigold-the creator.



It's a couple of years old but everytime I hear the song it makes me want to learn how to dance.  Her music is a mix of reggea and new wave combined. This is where my less white version of me hides and the more carribean side of me takes over, hehe..

I also love her song called LES artistes, and I heard a cover from this girl and guy called lillywood & the prick ( I know, don't say it)... and I love the cover. It's different and more acoustic like but it might even be better than the original.

Okay, second song of this post is.....Drum rollllllll *****  the band of my choice is The black keys and the song is called tighten up.  They play american blue-rock and the one thing I can say about this song is well it's just pretty damn cool. The clip as well is pretty funny...so just watch it...





Well this is for now...I once read this line that stuck with me because I found it simple but just right for every occasion ..so i'm just gonna say it...

"One thing about my life, it has a great soundtrack".

C-you
