super sweet jams for the weekend

This is the band Warpaint. I figured they were the
least known on the list and wanted to give them a shout
out. This photo is hot too - great colors and pretty girls.

I had time last night to re-listen to a few songs I Shazamed and/or heard somewhere in passing.  I keep a running list of songs (on my iPhone) I like and hear in random places (random places includes and is not limited to; bars, television programs, and people's homes).  I usually let it get to about ten songs, not much longer than that.  Then I visit iTunes, make sure I really like them, and buy them. 

Well people, I really knocked it out of the park with last night’s jams.  I ended up making a playlist with the songs, and although it is a little random, I love it.  I found some really great music and want to share it with you.  I was also nice enough to find the links through Youtube, so you can hear them all instantly (click the artist or titles).  Play these songs now and dance around.  Go on.  Dance.       

1.   Brett Dennen – Can’t Stop Thinking

This is a repeat.  I mentioned it here, but still hadn’t bought it.  Now I own it.

2.   Cut Copy – Saturdays

I think the brother was playing this the last time I went for a visit.

3.   Cut Copy – Blink and You’ll Miss a Revolution

Same explanation as last one, thanks again brother.  This is my more favorite of the two Cut Copy songs.  It is so good.   

4.   First Aid Kit – The Lion’s Roar

Maybe a bar, maybe on Mob Wives?!?!?  Who knows.  It is very Kristin Hersh-esque.

5.   Foals – Total Life Forever 

No idea.

6.   Hot Chip – Ready for the Floor

Bar in NYC.

7.   Ryan Farish – Come Into My World

Weather Channel – not kidding.

8.   Sufjan Stevens – For the Widowed in Paradise, for the Fatherless in Ypsilanti

Bar in NYC.

9.   Warpaint – Stars

It was the last song on this week’s episode of Revenge and it was a free download on abc.com.
