Skinny Love

Captivated by Birdy’s Bon Iver cover. Such a beautiful, wise-beyond-her-years voice. I think she was 14 when she first recorded this. I love that she still wears braces.

Look!

here’s one of the “maybe five” videos i’ve watched this past year. i’m currently cruising through Metronomy’s ouvre, and my ears are thanking me for it.

sadness is a blessing

i almost never watch music videos. i’ve maybe watched five this past year? but i jumped head first into the Lykke Li fan parade a few months ago, so i had to break my video-time-suck rule and watch her video for, “Sadness is a Blessing.” the song just so happens to be my favorite one from her latest album, Wounded Rhymes. i don’t know what it is about long-locked female artists who thrash & flail around while singing melancholic songs, but gosh, they make me swoon.
