Albert Hammond – It Never Rains in Southern California
I first heard this song at the end of the very last episode of Veronica Mars. She goes to vote in the elections, then walks out and its raining. I love that show, and they always choose good music (I seem to prefer TV shows when they choose music that is similar to my tastes. [...]
The Pierces – Secret
Countryside Alliance Crew
Instead of one song, this is a random covers type band that I heard on Radio 1 recently, and it made me giggle a LOT. They are called the Countryside Alliance Crew, and they do remixes and reworkings of some urban hits. I think this version of Dizzee Rascals – Bonkers is my favourite, its [...]
Cobra Starship ft Leighton Meester – Good Girls Go Bad
I can’t help listening to this song over and over, its just so damn catchy!
Regina Spektor – Laughing With
I can’t wait for Regina’s new album, Far to come out (on Monday, squee!), and this is the lead song from it. Lyrics beneath the jump:
Little Boots – Rich Boys
I love love love this cover version of the Virgins – Rich Girls. I mean, I love the original, but this is just that little bit more awesome.
Love Is Like A Bottle Of Gin
I love this song, and this video seems to fit it quite well.
Four Chords

Doo Do Do Do Do… Do!

I met my friend The Raaaaaaaaachel outside Euston Station and we checked into our hotel which was close by (although we headed off the wrong way at first, almost getting to the venue!) [...]
Eurovision Entertainment
I’ve been away this weekend in Bedford visiting friends for a Eurovision gathering. Eurovision was once an amusing event to watch as noone took it that seriously, and all songs were sung in the countries main language so translations via Teletext subtitles were often entertaining. Oh, and the UK actually had a chance of winning [...]
