KOORTWAH - CANDY IN THE SUN

A: KOORTWAH
S: CANDY IN THE SUN
C: CANDY IN THE SUN - EP

Probably not the most elaborated lyrics, maybe not the most thrilling musical experience, but there is something to both, so it's worth sharing. Everything else you need to know is right here waiting for you: KOORTWAH, a musical and visual project by Jake Courtois, incorporates the fresh sound of electronic pop with the lyrical depth and narrative qualities of more thoughtful songwriting.
 
... angels on the left - devil's always right.

Norah Jones - Happy Pills

A: Norah Jones
S: Happy Pills
C: Little Broken Hearts

Have you met Miss Jones? You might think you have, but maybe you haven't. Maybe you've judged her as being too main stream for your exquisit taste in music. And here's the dilemma about Norah: I think the only reason why she's not indie is because she's popular. Which isn't surprising. But I think it has nothing to do with her music. At all. So I like her. No matter what. Oh yeah, her new album is out. 

... trying to make it - so I never see your face again.

Franz Ferdinand - Do You Want To?

A: Franz Ferdinand
S: Do You Want To?
C: You Could Have It So Much Better

Unbelievable but true, because I triple checked, I have not posted this song before. I know, totally amazing. Anyway, it makes perfect sense to post it now, because I ventured to my very first gallery opening last night. Now this might come as a surprise, but everybody was very arty. But me. So anyway, there were a ton of pink painted canvases. I could do that. And you too. Still.

... I love your friends they're all so arty - oh yeah.

The Rapture - How Deep Is Your Love

A: The Rapture
S: How Deep Is Your Love
C: In The Grace Of Our Love

Good things come to those who wait - which is why this song is six months late. And a couple of hours, most probably. Here's something you might already know about In The Grace Of Our Love, or maybe you don't: Phoenix producer and Cassius member produced the record, which The Rapture recorded in Brooklyn. And obviously in Paris, bien sûr.

... let me hear that song.

Wolke - Denkst Du Manchmal Noch An Mich

A: Wolke
S: Denkst Du Manchmal Noch An Mich
C: Für Immer (out 27.04.12)

Since nobody is not liking any songs anymore anyway, I might just post this bittersweet guilty pleasure song of mine. Which is totally over the top, I admit. But that's what guilty pleasures are all about. Deal with it. As for the video, I love the re-interpretation on what you should do with your cereals in the morning. And the obvious fact that it was filmed in Berlin. Snaps for that.

... ich denk manchmal noch an dich - und zwar täglich.

Theme Park - Two Hours

A: Theme Park
S: Two Hours
C: Two Hours - Single

This is Theme Park's first single - as in the first single off their as-of-yet untitled debut album. Apparently it is about spending two hours on a night bus. Which are always a fun experiences, I guess. If you are the one that feels alright, observing everybody who isn't feeling alright - which are most people. Especially on a night bus. 

... can you feel anything?

Talking To Turtles - Grizzly Hugging

A: Talking To Turtles
S: Grizzly Hugging
C: Oh, The Good Life

I wonder how you can google for the lyrics of an artist, and all you get as results are pages saying that they don't have the lyrics. Isn't that the opposite of what google should be doing? And why hasn't every band have their lyrics on their homepage? So everybody can access them easily? These are the things I wonder about, on a Tueday morning like today.

... you're a couple now, multiply somehow,  and raise successful kids.
