I wore my Obama tube socks all night, and they totally worked.  You can thank me later.  Or now.  Or never.

I lucked onto this little gem yesterday morning on Neatorama by Mumford & Sons, and now just can’t stop playing it on repeat.  Pretty video, pretty song.

.

Which made me think of this Black Keys song.

.

Which is also on my repeat playlist.

You should smooch anyone who plays you this song.  Or at the very least lick their face.  Love.

And then I thought of this classic Wilco song.  Bob Dylan much?

.

What can I say, my mind works in categories.  Pretty, pretty, little categories.

Where in the World

Guess.

Where.

 

I.

Am.

Alicia Keys, ‘Girl On Fire’

.

I’ve been listening to this song on repeat this week – totally catchy, empowering and so, so needed.  Thanks, Danielle!

People Are So Fucking Cool

.

Let me see if I can say this clearly.  It’s amazing to see people whose default settings for success, resilience, and grace in the face of adversity are so effortlessly higher than the rest of us goons.  Chad Jones is a rock star.  So’s this guy.

Thanks, Hairpin!

Bon Iver, ‘Flume’, Live at Radio City Music Hall

I have hit my concert-going peak.  Last Wednesday, I saw Bon Iver play at Radio City Music Hall.  My seats?  Dead center, second row from the stage in the orchestra pit, with no one sitting in front of me.  Um, hello, the front row is for weenies – the pit is where is it at.   I managed to get a video of Mr. Justin Vernon singing ‘Flume,’ right before he sang a lovely version of Skinny Love, which I only managed to get the smallest snippet of because my technology is smarter than I am.  Please note how still my hand was for the whole of the video.  Backpat.
