Anyways, I was thinking about doing a series of these, kind of like my "Random Things I'm Currently Wanting" Polyvore boards.
So here are five albums that I really love:
Jason Mraz. We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.-I've long been a Mraz fan, and this album totally justifies my uber crush on this sexy lyricist. This album did not disappoint, and it ended up playing for a month straight in my car.
The Good Life. Album of the Year.-This is the most depressing album you will ever listen to. Listening to it all in one sitting is emotional exhausting, to say the least. If you've ever had one of those relationships that you wrapped your whole life around, just to have it slowly and painful crumble beneath you, you'll totally be able to relate to some of the sad tales Tim Kasher sings about.
KillWhiteyDead. Never Good Enough For You.-I had to throw some metal in the mix... these guys put on a great show and are totally decent dudes. I still get jazzed when I figure out where one of the clips in their songs are from... Most recently I figured out that one is from the movie Seven. (PS- The girl on the cover is totally lame and annoying in person. And sorry about the boobies!)
Q and Not U. Power.-It is too hard to pick just one of their albums objectively, so I totally picked this one randomly. Sometimes (okay, most of the time) the subject matter alludes me, but this album is just fun. This is the perfect thing to zone out and sing along to on long road trips.
The Format. Interventions & Lullabies.-I've touched on the greatness that is The Format, but honestly I cannot say enough about this band. I was so upset when they broke up before I could ever see them live. Some of my all-time favorite songs are on this album... two of which are my current ringtones.
Are these my top five favorites? No, not really. Could I ever pick my five all-time favorites? Not a chance... otherwise I totally would.
very nice!
