To celebrate the end of August (or rather, to mourn the end of the summer), these are the songs that have been added to my "Currently Loving" playlist since I moved back to Ontario. I have been influenced greatly by Heather from Colorado this past year, although only one song off her summer mix made it onto mine. I also noticed there is a little overlap with my friend Jessica's summer mix. Pure coincidence.
If I were making an actual album, the cover would be a photo I took on Amelia's camera last week. But I don't have that photo yet. *cough* I'm not upset though, because she's moving this week. For the second time in a month.
If I were burning this onto a CD for each of you, I would have to shorten the list, but I'm not, so I won't.
If I had more broadband and/or paid for remote storage, I would upload it somewhere for you all to download and listen. But I don't, so I can't.
And now that you're all itching to see the actual list, here it is, with lots of links to Youtube:
Big Girl (You Are Beautiful) - Mika
Five Years Time - Noah and the Whale
One Life Stand - Hot Chip
Thinkin Bout Something - Hanson
Home (singalong) - Boris Smile
Rocket - Goldfrapp
Breakeven - The Script
Awake My Soul (Reveille Mon Ame) - Mumford & Sons (the half-French version I'm loving is a live track from somewhere, no youtube video available)
Deaf - Jon Bryant
Reunite - Isbells
Unstoppable - Foxy Shazam
Everybody Knows - Elizabeth & The Catapult (Leonard Cohen cover)
Home - Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
Lisztomania - Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix
My Love - The Bird and The Bee
Impossible - Shout Out Louds
Boy With a Coin - Iron & Wine
Manhattan - Kings of Leon
Heart to Tell - The Love Language

Yes! for Goldfrapp and Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix. I've mostly been listening to Vampire Weekend this summer, stuck in a rut. But then I listened to Simon & Garfunkel today (greatest hits) and wished I had been listening to it this season.

ReplyDeleteYou seem to have a lot of blame in this post...hmm..online storage, Amelia...maybe it's time you think through who's really responsible for Beth's problems.... :-P
ReplyDeleteP.S. the only thing i hate more than getting sassed publicly is getting sassed publicly and not doing anything about it. --> Check your email for said photo.
Ooh, I wanted to link to this song because it's awesome and I think you'd enjoy it.
