BABY, I'LL BE YOUR DOCTOR.

If it wasn't already obvious, this is my sickness playlist. TA-DAA. perfect for those lonely days of overloading tea, grandma knits and used Kleenex.

This record is so awesome, it's only thing that keeps Taylor Momsen off my most annoying list. It's that good.



Doolittle's wispy angelic voice and catchy tunes will have you whistling like a country bumpkin hillbilly in no time (:



This album is phenomenal. Enough said.



The scrumptious and delicious TDCC will eat up your musical appetite forever.



Ahem. well, cough syrup is 'medicine' so it counts right?


For all five singles together IN ONE PLACE. here's a link (: oh aren't i the best.


Enjoy (:

I don't wanna dance alone.

If you haven't heard This Century yet, you are like the (rare) American who hasn't tasted Maccas. Naive and young, you have yet to see the wonders of the world. BUT ONCE YOU DO... you will blow up like a fat happy big-mac balloon (:

Take a listen.

You'll thank me.

Here's there newest single: Download - Sound of Fire

ONCE BURNED. twice shy.

A diamond in the rough rough (but terribly awesome, mind you) terrains of Denmark, Oh Land has recently been all the buzz around the US, appearing all over Letterman and Billboard. Her sexy, captivating bombshell of a song, Sun of a Gun is absolutely spiffing. It's as poppy as ... poppies. Its definitely one of the best within the electronica/experimental genre right now, and with a name like 'Nanna' she's bound to go far indeed.


Download: Sun of a Gun
Download: White Nights

Enjoy! (:

Mockingbird Can't you see The little girl's Got a hold on me

The Grammy-award-winning Black Keys duo Patrick Carney (drummer) and Dan Auerbach (Guitar and lead vocals) have come a long way from recording their debut album The Big Come Up in 2001 on a tape recorder from the 80s. Their 2010 album Brothers was a huge success, i mean Rolling Stones placed it at #fuckingtwo on their best albums of 2010. When you have the time, watching their hilarious musicvids including: Tighten Up and Howlin' For You.

To sum up: Black Keys is like someone put blues, rock, alternative and a sheer blinding phenomenon into a blender and juiced out Brothers.


Listen to: Tighten Up and Howlin' For You


enjoy (:

Pack up your troubles in you old kit bag and bury them beneath the sea

growing up within a musical/theatre fam with tony-award winning parents Eliza Doolittle was destined to be great. Doolittle has been round for a while with her 60's feel tunes, british street accent and catchy cute lyrics. No matter what you're doing Doolittle will help you smile (:



Listen to: Mr. Medicine, Pack Up, Rollerblades and Skinny Genes

handle with care. Phoenix will blow your mind.

From the retro melodies of Lisztomania and 1901 to the head-bobbing Brit sounds of Lasso that remind me so dearly of the sweet sweet sounds of The Kooks during their best days, Phoenix has succeeded in producing a well-rounded album that is bound to fill the spaces within your itunes Top 25 Most Played.
Listen to: Lisztomania, 1901, Lasso and Girlfriend

OFF WITH YOUR HEAD TO DANCE DANCE TILL YOU'RE DEAD.

Although I am a little late, nothing will stop be from posting up the glee soundtrack from The Sue Sylvester Bowl Shuffle ep from last night (: Who didn't love Brit's lines, Sue's rages and the awesome Yeah Yeah Yeahs and MJ mash-up?



enjoy! (:

You want it, you got it all.

Mary Mary Quite Contrary to their name, Hungry Kids of Hungary are an Australian band from QLD, (my prayers to those affected by Yasi), and are my very own home-brand of Two Door Cinema Club, Arctic Monkeys and Vampire Weekend. You may have heard some of their songs that have been circling around TV soundtracks for some time now (: I wont bother with anymore small talk. Take a listen to Scattered Diamonds and Wristwatch.

and this house is built of cards and the earth is blowing way to hard

I've decided to take a step back from the sounds of fluffy experimental punk and go back to the genres that make you flutter your eyes closed and sway to the music of guitars strumming, soft drums and of course raspy-smooth-velvety vocals with beautiful lyrics. I am talking of course of Isaac Russell. I have no doubt that most of you have WTFISOA (wtf is she on about) in a little thought bubble above your head right now, but hear me out. He's John Mayer, A+J Stone and everything else wonderful in this world combined in one artist.


Listen to: House of Cards, Lighthouse (the chorus is simply lovely), Elizabeth and Made Me A Man


Enjoy.

A lonely speaker in a conversation

there is a certain place in my heart for the creative, upbeat, fanciful, odd but FUN sounds of Panic At The Disco. Whilst, Nine in the Afternoon was a bit of a let down for me. I am currently liking the newest leaked single The Ballad of Mona Lisa off Panic's upcoming album, Vices and Virtues, it reminds me off the Pretty. Odd. and A Fever days. (:

Enjoy!

Only yesterday was the time of our lives

to continue my british obsession i have opted to feature the mellower sounds of Adele. This award winning artist has produced songs that literally make you sit back for a minute and listen. I credit jonalisblog for showing me the simply beautiful ballad Someone Like You.

I have included songs from her newest album Someone Like You and Set Fire to the Rain, and then Chasing Pavements and Hometown Glory from her previous album.






enjoy. and look for Adele's new album, 21.

there's a spanner in the works

After listening to the absolutely, positively dreadful new Britney Spears song, I was delighted-ly ecstatic to stumble upon the brilliant album titled Tourist History by the British alternative band Two Door Cinema Club. For those of you who aren't too keen to delve into the alternative genre that seems to be becoming more and more popular, Two Door Cinema Club is the perfect transitioning group for you. All those of you who are loving the sounds of Florence and the Machine and The Vampire Weekend to but name a few, will LOVE this.

First: listen to Something Good Can Work, What You Know, I Can Talk and Undercover Martyn

THEN: listen to the rest :) (start with.... Eat That Up, It's Good For You)

enjoy. and ps. they're touring sydney soon (:

I swear Bruno Mars is a robot in disguise. everything about him is absolutely perfect. I'm sure everyone will absolutely love this album (: Recommended songs to listen to are: Grenade, Marry You and Count On Me

Look outside at the raincoats coming, say OH


since the tragedy of twenty-10 (including but not restricted to the robbery of my macbook) i havent been able to download any new music and as such am unable to update on the newest but not necessarily the awesomest music of this new decade.

so i have fallen back on the loveliest task of educating those who have obviously been living under not just one rock but an AVALANCHE of rocks, about VAMPIRE WEEKEND.

to be perfectly honest: i didn't really like them at first. but after a second listen, i was convinced of their obvious musical superiority to whatever other junk i was listening to at the time. (probably something from disney). They're just so... refreshing.

so without further ado. i give you Vampire Weekend Itunes session EP including A-Punk (I'd definitely give this song a go), Holiday (thumbs-up) , I'm Going Down, Have I The Right and Cousins Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa[ :) ]

If you find that you enjoy them, give Oxford Comma, Cousins and Mansarf Roof a go.
