Why do I do the things I do? I'd tell you if I knew.

Wham - Everything She Wants. Been listening to songs from the 80s. Think they had better songwriters those days. Our parents were so darn lucky, come to think of it. Heh. I mean, come on. This song is already almost two decades old but I still love it. 2 million people on Youtube love it. Plus, George Michael has the voice. No one sings it like he does.

Another classic that's been replaying non-stop in my head - Spandau Ballet's True.

I saw this on Skins and remembered how my mom used to blast this when I was younger. Brought back loads of childhood memories. Mixed tapes. Michael Jackson. Waiting for the music videos to appear on TV.

The Skins' version with the Britain Ukelele Orchestra. Nice.

Stop the hate.

Nidji - Heaven.
Here's an Indonesian band that's pretty amazing. They have already made it global, apparently. Props.

You turn the room a shade heaven.

Rie Sinclair's No Way Out. I heard this on TV the other day and I instantly loved it. Nice and slow. With just the piano. That's my kind of peace. Sorry I couldn't find a video with better audio.

I want a red 'do too.

My Chemical Romance - Sing. Anthemic, is what I'd call this one. Only knew a few of their songs before this like Helena, I Don't Love You, mostly their singles. But this album definitely goes on my best of the year list. Every single song is hella good. And I'm totally loving the new red hair on Gerard Way. Is it me or is everyone dying their hair red now? Heh.

Anyway, the rest of the album is just as great.

Bulletproof Heart. If I had to pick this would definitely be my favourite.

Show me how you do that trick.

Just Like Heaven by The Cure. Haven't really heard their stuff before the Horsie SNL skit. Andy Samberg did a great job impersonating the lead singer by the way. All down to the hand gestures. Haha. Anyway I love how they made a sad song sound kinda uplifting.

When there's nothing left to burn, you have to set yourself on fire.

Stars- Your Ex-lover is Dead

Found this gem of a song while iTunes surfing. Stunningly beautiful.

She said I love you boy.

She Said by Plan B. Good song, he sounds like a mix between Mike Posner and Cee-lo Green. This British dude sure can sing. Video's pretty funny too. Think it was inspired by that viral wedding dance video.


Prayin'. I like how he raps and sings. Funk, soul and hip-hop assimilated perfectly.

30 Seconds To Mars - Closer to The Edge

Wow.

Did you feel the euphoria? I just felt like jumping around and screaming at the top of my lungs after watching this. Jared Leto has a voice that instantly catches your attention. Love how powerful he sounds in this. Haven't seen the video before and I must admit this is definitely one of my favourites of the year. And the year is almost ending. Definitely was one heck of a video. Well, it's nothing great being just a compilation of some of their concert vids, but still. After editing and all that star wars-ish subtitles, you get one epic-worthy video. 

Where my blog's name came from.

Black Sheep performed by Brie Larson. AKA Envy Adams of The Clash at Demonhead. Soundtrack from Scott Pilgrim vs The World. Awesome movie, by the way.


Now here's the original version performed by Metric. Raw and filled with angst. Perfect.
