i look outside the sky's painted the floor



The Willowz - Repetition
Yeahhhh, one comment summed it up pretty much - sounds like the old Whites Stripes. Love the fuzzy guitaring.

One Night Only - It's Alright
Well, I chanced upon this song when I chanced upon the Burberry SS10 Campaign: Behind the Scenes video. What fortuitous turn of events. Really good song. Good mix of piano and drums plus poppy lyrics. How did they get their name? Well, very simple. It came about when they were asked to play a gig. They did not have a name at the time and came up with One Night Only, intending the title to, literally, last for only one night, however the name stuck to this day. Could this end up on the Gossip Girl show? Sounds suited for a moment when Nate and Serena get back together. Or maybe Chuck being all sweet and lovey to Blair after shit happens.

Sharon Van Etten - For You
So beautiful and nuanced. Acoustic guitar playing female soloists are far too many, and she stands her grounds against her peers with that expressive voice and folk-inspired song.
