NEW SONG OF THE WEEK

i actually had a good line up for this week..... but then something happened.

i came into an album. an album that you guys may have heard me say, is the best album of the year so far. in fact BOTH of the songs, song of the week AND runner up, are off of this album. which by the way, if you dont know, is called Pala.

This weeks song of the week isBlue Cassette-by Friendly Fires



The runner up, again is off of the same album. AMAZING album. i HIGHLY recommend it.

Runner up:Living Those Days Tonight-by Friendly Fires.



Lyrics to Blue Cassette:
I found a tape in my back garden
A blue cassette covered in dirt
And through the dust the reels start
Turning
And played some memories stored in it

As I hear your voice it sets my heart on fire

That with all the noise
It sets my heart on fire

And I can't stop the reels from tuning
I can't stop the tape machine
As I hear your voice it sets my heart on fire

I found a place
I thought was stolen
A place that's built on noise and needs
And in my hand it spins so gently
Fills a void was winding me

As I hear your voice
It sets my heart on fire
That with all the noise
It sets my heart on fire

And I can't stop the reels from turning
I can't stop the tape machine

As I hear your voice it sets my heart on fire

Lay back down I told myself
How could I ever forget you?

As I hear your voice
It sets my heart on fire
That with all the noise
It sets my heart on fire

And I can't stop the reels from turning
I can't stop the tape machine

I found a tape in my back garden
A blue cassette covered in dirt

I was surprised at what the songs were actually like... But it was a nice surprise.

I really liked both of them, actually.

What was the original lineup, anyway? :P

I like this band. Their instrumentals are amazing and very original, especially the drums. Though while their music is great, i don't like their lyrics or singing style much.

What was the original lineup, anyway? :P

Not my thing. When is the TV on the Radio coming?

I dont know, youll have to wait and see.

NEW SONG OF THE WEEK

This new song ive wanted to make song of the week for awhile. its a great song, great melody and an even greater harmony. everything about this song is just beautiful, the lyrics, the guitar, the drums groove very well, the piano sort of brings even more dramatics to the song as well.

this weeks song of the week:
into the mirror-by minus the bear.

really an amazing jam right here, it is live so it sort of lets you see the musicianship really at work.

This week we have two runners up. one is from a very good band whos bass player died not to long ago, so in his memory heres caffeinated consciousness-by tv on the radio

the second runner up is actually from a local AG band we have . want to here dusty lees vocal skills? well here you have it. check out some of the songs on their facebook page right here

Into the mirror lyrics:

They got a mirror for the âcaine in the bathroom
because nobody here knows when to stop
but for now weâre just making out with the door unlocked
back in the atrium the musicâs slowing down,
the partyâs thinning out
for the late crowd
fixes her lipstick,
fixes his belt,
the coast is clear as he walks out

She whispers:
âYou get what you pay for
we could cost a lot
you get what you pay for
but we do it for the taste of a good high
we do it for the sake of a hot nightâ

Her man on the couch in the blue room
with everyone stoned and talking at once
with no thought to where theyâd been
or what they could have done
she sits down beside him
without a hint of shame
because everythingâs the same in itâs own way
Kisses her manâs cheek,
her hunter eyes lock on her prey

She signals:
You get what you play boy
we could play a lot
you get what you play boy
but you do it for the taste of a good high
we do it for the sake of a hot night

She senses the fear in him
with an irresistible kiss
and a lie she hangs on his neck
like a silver chain to her whim
pull him into the mirror again

She senses the need in him
for her irresistible kiss
and a lie that she hangs on his neck
like a silver chain to her whim

Thereâs a mirror for the âcaine in the bathroom
because nobody here knows when to stop
and the hand towel on the rail
seems it hangs out here a lot

Into the Mirror is an ok song, not really my style but they are definately talented. also what are those ��s things that you do the little question marks in the diamonds?

well, when i typed out the lyrics on microsoft word for them and copied and pasted, i forgot that it did that.

its my bad. ill make sure not to do it like that next time

menos el oso~

muy bueno, me gusta

NEW SONG OF THE WEEK

ALSO AN ANNOUNCEMENT ON A NEW FEATURED SONG



alrighty, i havent done the song of the week in two weeks, due to me just generally being out of the house and enjoying my summer.

so because i missed last week. im going to feature 4 songs today.

1 being the song of the week, another being the runner up, another being another song of the week, the last being a song i shall feature every week from now on.

i shall now be featuring a song i have never heard before from the week, of course which i personally like alot. there is no time limit on THIS song. however there is the same standard 1.5-2 year deadline for songs for the actual song of the week.





so lets get started


i shall get us started off with last weeks song of the week.

i had it planned out, but due to me being out and about, i didnt post it. You may all probably know the band already, due to the fact that they have been featured before, not only as song of the week but as a runner up in the same week. thats right friendly fires is back on here with another song off of the same fantastic album.

last weeks song of the week was: Pull me Back to Earth-by Friendly Fires


i wont post lyrics just cause this post will just be massive if i do. so look them up yourself.


now, onto THIS weeks song of the week, runner up, and featured song i have never heard till this past week.


This weeks actual song of the week is actually a COVER of a VERY popular punk song, possibly one of the greatest punk songs of all time. only this version is different. while the original had raging distortion guitars and fast paced drums and bass, this one is acoustic and quite relaxing and suits the lyrics a lot better in my opinion.

THIS weeks song of the week is:Linoleum-As covered by streetlight manifesto, originally by punk legends NOFX.

The runner up is also a ska song from ska/punk legends sublime. with their previous lead singer being dead and all due to heroin overdose, here is sublimes new song with new lead singer Rome.

Panic-sublime with rome



and now onto our first "delossantosj featured song"


while i was scouring the internet one day and youtubeing and all that junk, i came across a song. this song i can most easily describe as a cross between PM today, and blink-182. if you dont know them, look them up. but anyways, it was very catchy and very soothing. the music video didnt do much for me, but the song was amazing.

our FIRST delossantosj featured song is: Once, Twice, Again-by DARTZ!


as a final note guys, with this new featured song that im doing, you can suggest ANY song to me now. as long as i havent heard it, its always on the table and i consider all suggestions. but keep the new stuff coming for the regular song of the week as well.

these are alright, not exactly my style. although my friend would probably love this stuff.

Love all but the last song. Nice choices. But I don't get what this whole feature song is.
