Ballin'

Adam Tensta and Lazee of Sweden...just to prove I am not a hip hop hater.

Simon's Cat

This is actually really cute and anyone who's ever owned a pet can probably identify. I loled a bit.



I miss having a cat!

Why, Kanye?

Why is Kanye West trying to bring back the jean jacket. It's not cool. People wore them in the 90s...nuff said. He wears one in the Amazing video and in Knock You Down. I was also amused by the fact that Keri Hilson towers over Kanye and Ne-Yo. She is gorg.

Live it Out

So I really love the acoustic version of Live it Out. The one on the album is still wonderful...cause it's Metric, but the acoustic version that they play at a lot of their shows is just mind blowing, maybe cause you really listen to the lyrics when it's slowed down. Sucks that I can't find it anywhere on the world wide web! They should make it a bonus track on their next album IMO.

On the day we were supposed to leave
You changed your mind at the station
You had a nice apartment
There was a good bar downstairs
Your old friend worked there

I'll go anyway, I'll go anyway
They won't refund the ticket
It's a good story

But I don't want to live it alone
Crash to take a chance
I wanna live it out
Look at you, I know I'm already dead
No concrete adversity
Only traps of our own actions
How we wanted it to be
Now I'm never gonna see you again
You turned off

Vertabrae by vertebrae
Roll your way out of a coma
Look up, the nurse is smiling
What luck, the nurse is me
Your old body is dead
Your body's dead, you're a word instead
In my sleep I repeat it
It's a good story

But I don't want to live it alone
Crash to take a chance
We were gonna live it out
Look at you, you're already dead
How will you remember me
Digging ditches out of boredom
Said you would never leave
Now you're never gonna be here again
You checked out

Dum dum dum dum dum
Sha la la la la
Dum dum dum dum dum

Train Song

Can't get this out song out of my head. It's a cover of Train Song by Vashti Bunyan performed by Feist and Ben Gibbard (best collab ever!) and its just lovely. It's on the amazing Dark Was the Night charity album, which has 31 songs by artists Conor Oberst, Arcade Fire, Beirut, Bon Iver, etc. It's pretty ridiculous.

Anyways here's the original and the cover...
