Lana Del Rey - Video Games



This is Lana del Rey's debut single 'Video Games' on Stranger Records.

A post for Cocteau Twins


I know it was a stunning band with amazing music, lyrics and vocals. Everything was wonderful about them.

Cocteau Twins - Seekers Who Are Lovers (BBC Sessions 1999)

New Indie Rock/Pop Music to Check out 2011

There is not some noteworthy new music out there. I am struggling to write tons of stuff like I used to.

My e-mail box is full of really annoying music review requests. Everybody listens to same songs and everybody does the same things. Then the world becomes a very commercial place to live. I don't want that!

It seems that I will listen to the same bands for a while.

Patrik Fitzgerald - All my friends are dead now


Some good songs to listen:
Boy and Bear - Blood To Gold
This song is from previous album, the new album is called Moonfire (2011).

Dum Dum Girls Coming Down New Single from the new album Only in Dreams (2011).

Mates of State "Maracas" 2011.

Ivy - Distant Lights

Wow! I really enjoy this song and wanted to share with you.

Wonderful Alternative Songs Top 10

The purpose of this blog is making readers a little bit surprise by the selective and different music reviews, lists and artists.

Talking Heads - Cities

Visage - Tar

Patrick Wolf  - A Boy Like Me

Elliott Smith - Independence Day

The Auteurs - School

Todd Rundgren - I Saw The Light

The Dears - Heartless Romantic

Amy Winehouse - You Sent Me Flying

Liz Phair - Stratford-on-Guy

Jay-Jay Johanson - Far Away

Because they are very strict about sharing music files on internet recently, I cannot share any of these tracks. However I'm sure you can listen all of these songs if you search on youtube.

Laura Marling - Sophia



It is a perfect song! With mellow and relaxing voice, Laura Marling gets your attention at first listen. Her great songwriting skills are making the moment magical.

If you don't know who she is, there you go:

Laura Marling was only 16 years old when she emerged on the British indie scene in 2007 thanks to a handful of infectious singles made available on her MySpace profile. Endowed with a husky voice, an acoustic guitar, and a gift for building quirky, hooky folk songs (characteristics that would have the artist compared favorably to artists like Lily Allen, Regina Spektor, and Martha Wainwright), Marling quickly made a name for herself throughout England.

For more Laura Marling happiness check her website.

The song is from the new album 'Euphoric Heartbreak (2011)' of Glasgow based indie rock band Glasvegas! It's been a very nice emotional song.
