Tune-idge

Lets start off with the tunes. Everyone loves music, not all people like hearing me rant about the state of the ocean.

Top 5 of the day

Stars - Wasted Daylight

Oh. My. Gosh. I know I've said that about both Fixed and We Don't Want Your Body but I mean, they just keep getting better! This song has been on repeat on my computer since about noon and it's just after 3 now. It's just so good. I love how dark this album is without sounding heavy. There is a difference between the two. It's just so catchy and Amy sounds incredible. This album really is shaping up to be my favourite of all 9.

Justin Bieber feat Ludacris - Baby

I don't care. It's not indie. It's not even good. However, it's adorable and catchy as can be. I love it love it love it! So does my friend Nicole and I mean, she's pretty much the coolest person I know so it's all good. The music video has a cute little culturally ambiguous 13 year old girl in it that your little girl can grow up and want to be!

The Stills - Don't talk down

Not a new song or even a newer song. This fantab tune is about a year and a half old and off the album Oceans Will Rise (which is one of the tattoos I'm getting in about a month or so!). It's reminiscent of old school The Stills, I'm talking Logic Will Break Your Heart type The Stills. Amazeballs. The entire album is amazing. It's one of those albums that is meant to be listened to from start to finish. While it sounds fine just pulling one or two songs out, it sounds way better when you just fly through the album.

Sally Seltmann - Harmony to my heartbeat

Also known as New Buffalo, Sally Seltmann is an amazing artist from New Zealand who I happened to fall for a few years ago when I was living in Ottawa. She's on the same label as Stars, BSS, The Stills and a lot of other really awesome Canadian bands. This song in particular makes me happy. It's ridiculously cute and really shows off Seltmann's vocal skills.

Sia - My Love

So I know this is from the Twilight soundtrack and I've already linked to that but this song is so incredibly amazing!!!! It makes me really happy. It's just one of those songs that is beautiful and romantic and lovely. Mmmm romantic. It makes me want to wear a really flowy floral dress and go lay in a field of grass. Mmmm but only if the year was like 1832.

Alexi Murdoch - Orange Sky

If you watched the OC you'll no doubt know this song. It's really nice for relaxing to and sleeping. I've not listened to anything else by Alexi Murdoch but I suppose I should since I really enjoy his voice.

So that's about it for now. I'm going to post about Convocation and the likes a little later. For now though, it's off to the lake! Mmmm, nothing like putting in a dock to make your Saturday fun. Lake lake lake!
