in time i'd find a little way to your heart



Imogen Heap - Wait It Out
Yet another song from her album "Ellipse". Her usual beautiful music and there's no denying her excellent voice and talent, but is it me or is her music starting to sound the same?

Blind Pilot - # Rounds and a Sound
Very good song. Brilliantly crafted lyrics set to a neat beat, it doesn't plod, nor does it rush, taking just the right amount of time to walk, searching before finding it's place. While I certainly don't want to spoil your interpretations of what the lyrics could mean, I definitely can tell there's loss, love and change involved. Taking "soil and six feet under" at face value, there's death as well - but whatever it is, just appreciate this fabulous song.

Band of Horses - The General Specific
Hailing from Seattle, this rock band gained attention after opening for Iron & Wine. Also a little trivia - their new album "Night Rainbows" should be released sometime this year and Cigarettes, Wedding Bands is featured on Guitar Hero 5.
