Summer Playlist {Songs #8a & #8b: Sia}

This next artist was yet another find via an online radio station, Slacker Radio to be exact.  This is the best way for me to discover new bands/artists since I don't have a ton of time to sit and search.  Anyways, I love this artist because she has a wide variety of style in her repertoire.  She is very eccentric and weird; but, talented nonetheless.  Breathe Me and My Love are both very emotional songs with so much depth it's hard not to be moved by them.  On the hand are the two songs that are fun and upbeat.  I couldn't pick between them {and they are both in my personal Summa playlist) so I leave the decision up to you :)

Song #8a: Clap Your Hands by Sia
Warning: If listening in car, you WILL be tempted to take your hands off the wheel to clap.  Please drive responsibly.
And yes, this video is super weird.


Song #8b: You've Changed by Sia


Enjoy!

Summer Playlist {Song #5: Through The Willows And Streams}

Howdy!

I listen to online radio stations at work (i.e. Pandora, Slacker, etc.) because I really can't stand to have just silence.  Not to mention, I sometimes have mini-dance parties right there in my cubie - you know, just the shoulder shake and the occasional power fist pump if it's pretty rockin'.  Don't judge.  You know you do it too.

Long story short, I've gone from Pandora to Slacker to last.fm and so far, last.fm is my favorite of all the online radio stations.  If you like discovering new music, you'll definitely like this station.  The next few songs for my Summer Playlist I will have discovered on last.fm so props to them.

So the latest band that I've "Liked" is Eye Alaska.  {And no, they are not from Alaska, they are actually from California.} They're an alternative band with some influences of 90's boy band sounds.  I'm sure you're goin "What in the world...?" Just check out Roll Right Over and you'll hear what I'm talking about.  A lot of their songs are "windows-rolled-down" worthy so I highly recommend checking out their other stuff like Walk Like A Gentleman.

I give you Through The Willows Streams from their Yellow & Elephant EP (once again not an "official" video, sorry!)


Enjoy!
