But first, I want to apologize for the lack of a usual Monday post. It's due to so many things but mainly a lack of sleep which is making me lightheaded even as I type this. Part of it is Twilight (which I'm almost done with the 4th one, thankyouverymuch) and staying up to read too much and part of it is I went down to Portland this weekend to meet my newest nephew Holden who is now a month old. (Both my sisters so far have passed along the Gray faces, kinda crazy, but we're a good looking bunch if I do say so myself.)
I've also been listening to plenty of music lately and that's keeping me up. What with new album releases:
And two new artists that I'm in love with. One is Benjamin Francis Leftwich and the other is Greyson Chance - this is the 14 year old, who sounds nothing like a 14 year old until he talks about meeting you by the tire swings in the school yard and then I'm totally reminded he's a 14 year old. But really an amazing voice.
And Benjamin Francis Leftwich is perfect music in my mind for those lovely dreary overclouded fall days (you know I'm a northwestener simply by that statement) when everything seems more restful and all I want to do is curl up on my couch with a good book, some tea and his album.
Oh and we have grooveshark back at work (I'm not asking why, just crossing my fingers it gets to stay for a while) so I haven't had to buy either of the new artists albums above yet. I know I will though as they're both just too good.
Happy Wednesday all. (Let's pretend I posted this on Monday, shall we?)
A friend just introduced me to Anya Marina and Ben Folds. LOVE. Check them out if you haven't already. :)
ReplyDeleteI love them both. Speaking of which I found Anya Marina from a Twilight soundtrack (I love all the soundtracks, they really do an amazing job) and fell in love with her on the spot.
ReplyDeleteBen Folds I've loved since high school.
Thanks for the suggestions! You apparently know exactly my style. :)
