I'm a very musical person and currently in a whirlwind delirium as I've lost my iPod. :( So I thought that I would share my favourite top 4 artists AT THE MOMENT. If i new how to bold and italic that shit i would because my musical taste is very eclectic and changes nearly every week! Why 4 do you ask? Because i said so! So here I go...
1) Nick Drake...one of the most hauntingly beautiful acoustic songs ever written would have to be Pink Moon. It's so simple yet touches you so quickly and it's a song i listen to over and over and over again. Drake received the bulk of credit for his musical talents posthumously (as was the case with J. Buckley also).
2) Alexi Murdoch. Naw, you can't help but imagine yourself perched on a rocking chair sipping on some peach iced tea in the midst of a summer day with not a cloud in sight whilst listening to this great stuff! I implore you to check this stuff out it's AWESOME!
3) City & Colour- Dallas Green...'nuff said.
4) Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago is the ALBUM YOU SHOULD ALREADY HAVE. Justin Vernon the singer composed all lyrics and music and recorded it out in his fathers cabin...the result is unlike something i have ever heard before. Nah fuck it I'm moving Bon Iver to my new number 1 and good ol' Drake can take over number 2 and so on and so forth :-P
As you can see this week has been quite sombre and somewhat depressing and my musical tastes reflect that quite seemlessly.
I'll have another list next week informing ya'll of any progress on account of my disposition (and in turn the music I'm listening to!)
On a serious note, if anyone has actually read this....THANKYOU!!!!!
Till next time,
Au revoir

I like your taste in music, although I must say I have only ever heard Bon Iver's stuff. Perhaps I will source out the others and give them a try??
ReplyDeleteAs you are following me on twitter, it is the least I can do to check out your blog and follow you back,
Until next time!
Definitely check them out! But be warned I was pretty depressed when I wrote this blog...
