Sorry I haven’t been posting as regularly as I used to. I just finished finals yesterday and moved out of my dorm today so life has been reeeeeally hectic. Anyway, it’s Wednesday so here are my suggestions for your iPod.
#1. “Sometime Around Midnight” by The Airborne Toxic Event off of The Airborne Toxic Event. This is a great song and it really shows the possibilities for storytelling within a single song. —> Download!
#2. “Only One” by Yellowcard off of Ocean Avenue. This song makes me cry. —> Download!
#3. “Jersey” by Mayday Parade off of A Lesson In Romantics. I listen to Mayday Parade’s entire album everyday at least once, no joke. They are one of my favorite bands. —> Download!
#4. “I Can’t Do It Alone” by 3OH!3 off of WANT. Honestly, a lot of people don’t like 3OH!3 because they act like total toolbags in their songs [which I don't disagree with], but I like their music and this is a better than decent song. —> Download!
#5. “Existentialism On Prom Night” by Straylight Run off of Straylight Run. This song is fantastical. ‘nough said. —> Download!
#6. “New York, NY” by Chronic Future off of Lines In My Face. If you replace the lyrics “New York City” for “Seattle”, then this song speaks to me. Haha. —> Download!
#7. “Golden Star” by My Brightest Diamond off of Bring Me The Workhorse. Okay, so I saw My Brightest Diamond when they came to the NorVa with The Decemberists in April of 2007. I DID NOT LIKE HER VOICE AT ALL. But, two years later, I like it. She has grown on me and I hope she grows on you too…like a fungus, like a fungus. —> Download!
#8. “You Don’t Know Me (Feat. Regina Spektor) by Ben Folds off of Way to Normal. I found this song on my friend’s Myspace and loved it. Enjoy —> Download!
Well I am going to Pennsylvania for the next 3-4 days so I will be without internet [to my knowledge] so I expect comments/feedback/suggestions when I return. Have a wonderful weekend viewers.

check out some ingrid michaelson – “Breakable” , state radio -”Keepsake” , Girl Talk (the best mixup artist i’ve ever heard), jenny owen youngs – “Fuck was I”, & The New Pornographers (they aren’t together anymore, but their stuff is still good)
I like Ingrid Michaelson, she is pretty good.
also, your face is pretty good.
Regina Specktor blows. That is all.
