The Tough Alliance
Today I am paying homage to my Swedish heritage with one of my favorite bands to come from Sweden. The Tough Alliance does Indie Pop/Electro Pop like no other. What's taking them so long to put out another album??
(I now know where I get my bad dancing genes from!)
It's laughable to me that their critics claim they glorify violence in general and hooliganism in particular. I mean really, do these guys look like thugs to you?

Graffiti6 - Stare Into The Sun
This kid with his soulful crooning and his smoldering good looks is gonna go far.

Deerhunter - Desire Lines
I forgot how much I love this entire album. I put it on today while I cleaned and it's musical bliss. I don't skip any songs and I let it play all the way through. That's a feat for me.

Passion Pit - Swimming In The Flood
I have some serious passion for Passion Pit; especially this song. It may be my favorite song off their (old) new album. *sigh* This is one of those songs that just feels right to me.

I'm Having Your Baby
Billy Idol screamed sex appeal to me as a child. Of course I was 6 years old and I had no idea what lust was, obviously, but I knew he was my first legit crush. I'm registered at Babys R Us and I'd really like an infant sized studded leather jacket.
Twin Shadow
Twin Shadow is genius. He takes the best beats from unborn baby songs of the 80s and gives birth to them here in the present. I can't say enough about this guy. Plus, I get weak in the knees for his music videos that look like they belong on the public access channel.
Angsty 90s
The music of the 90s was so amazing. Tracy Bonham may not scream quintessential 90s to everyone but, man, I sure did love this album.
Is This a Fat Joke?
Pay no mind that this song is from the Eclipse soundtrack of the Twilight saga (which I shamefully adore). This is amazing and will be lost on tweens.

Lauryn Hill & Janelle Monae
Two of my queens of soul.
Could either of them be more beautiful in voice or appearance? Nope.

So Different Yet So Similar
James Blake's Joni Mitchell cover reminds me of Antony and the Johnsons.

Maxwell - Love You
I included the video with lyrics because this song is truly beautiful. Maxwell is always incredible but his words here describe how love feels to me and how can you not love that.
M83- We Own The Sky
This is an oldie but oh such a goodie! This song changes the seasons of my soul from Winter to Spring.

Can't Start a Fire Worryin' About Your Little World Bein' Blown Apart
Even the Boss gets a little bored with himself from time to time. I'm dancing in the dark...just looking for a little, even the tiniest spark...
