Today, we have laughter
The lunch of champions
Hill Country BBQ Moist Brisket with a side of Sweet Potato Bourbon Mash, and Skillet Cornbread (with Ancho Honey Butter)
Fall in Central Park Mix
*Red Red Rose- The Weepies
- (Why are the Weepies so good? Impossible to pick one song from their new album)
- Memories come back like falling leaves leaves leaves
*Rooco- Arcade Fire
- (One of my favorite bands, and they have something nice to say to. And by nice, I mean anti-hipster generation well-worded rant. LOVES IT)
- Let’s go downtown and talk to the modern kids/They will eat right out of your hand/Using great big words that they don’t understand.
*Changes- Stars
- (Great beat, great voice, killer lyrics= Stars)
- I’ve never been good with change/ I hate it when it all stays the same
*Under Your Charms- Josh Rouse
- (Gotta appreciate a song that seriously uses the phrase “it’s the end of the night and I’m feeling sexual”)
*Rolling in Deep- Adele
- (Her new song is glorious)
*Leave- Matchbox 20
- (Even after hearing the album ‘Mad Season’ backwards and forwards for 8+ years, I’m not over it. This song hooks me like no other)
- I’m not sayin’ we ever had the right to hold on/ I just couldn’t ever let you get away from me
*Tighten Up- The Black Keys
- (If you don’t’ like this song, I don’t like you)
*Here Comes Your Man- The Pixies
- (It’s hard not to sing the verse “so long, so long” outloud. I recognize I should try harder…)
*Dog Days Are Over- Florence + The Machine
- (It’s verging on popular, which makes me not want to like it because I’m admittedly one of those people, but I can’t help it…)
*Slow Motion- David Gray
- (How did I just discover this song while hearing DG live this summer? I should have been in love with this song for 5 years)
- Life in slow motion somehow it don’t feel real
*Teenage Dream- Glee Cast
- (This version of Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream is dreamy, and if you’re not watching Glee you don’t get to judge)
*Song For You- Alexi Murdoch
- (My friend Mikey and I deduced that Alexi sounds just like Nick Drake. But who cares, I love Nick Drake. To top it off, it’s from the fabulous movie Away We Go)
*Spitting Fire- The Boxer Rebellion
- What the rest did was average/ But I don’t mind
*A Better Son/Daughter- Rilo Kiley
-
(The most kickass song I know. Once you get past 1:39, you’ll see what I mean)
