SG's Playlist: Tuesday, September 23, 2008

New season, new tunes. And believe it or not, I've actually got some dudes on here now (way to break the OBYCB glass ceiling, boys!)

First up is a catchy-tune by Australian native Lenka. It's called "The Show." If you don't start singing the refrain by the end, you have no soul. I'm not kidding...you might want to get an MRI because you're missing a soul.



And for the record (pardon the pun), I'd post the real video if they didn't disable the damn embedding.

Lastly is "Young Friend" by Brooke Waggoner. Brooke seems like one of those womyn's women, which is always good for some tunes. I couldn't find the actual video AGAIN, so here's some weirdo's video of the American flag to the tune (you have to skip a few seconds in to get to it--when you see the flag, you're good to go).



Brooke and Lenka--I'd feature your videos if you let me!!! You could use the promotion. You know it...

Finally, here are the Kings of Leon. They always seemed like a band I'd hate because of their name and genre. I hate those types of bands (alternative hipster types) sometimes just because of their stereotypes. But I do enjoy it when they prove me wrong. The KOL did that this weekend on SNL. Here's a non-official video (again) with the song. Enjoy!

Much to my chagrin, this Distrubia song by Rihanna (I can never spell her name right) is getting to me. It's like the Costanza version of "by Mennen".




And one of my favorite non-US acts, Delta Goodrem is ripping it up the VH1 charts (it's something, okay) with her new song, In This Life. It's a damn good song.

SG's Playlist: Friday, August 22, 2008.

SG's music section is breaking out. The result? A new feature--"SG's Playlist." Here is the songs I'm digging for the week ending Friday, August 22, 2008.

Who can deny the power of Pink's new song, "So What?" It was harsh at first, but it's catchy now and I find myself wanting to hear it more often.




And the song I've had in my head for three days now has been Adele's Chasing Pavements from her album "19". What a beautiful song. I don't quite get the chasing pavements reference yet, but it's stuck in my head nonetheless. (I'd put the real video here because it's neat, but embedding is disabled on it. so this is a live performance.)
