FROM THE WORLD

I can not even begin to express how much I love this song. It is amazing! It's one of those songs that when it comes on the radio you just have a spaz attack and turn the radio up, then you listen to it on the internet and you just keep pressing repeat. Then when you stop listening to it, it just stays in your head like a cold, it never seems to go away. Like ever. I really hope this song will appear on the American iTunes soon, I am so addicted to this song. Literally, anything by this band is awesome, and it will always be awesome. Thanks to Youtube, I know that the official music video just makes the song explode even more than it already does. It's like an epicenter of amazing goodness. Already today I've listened to this song a good six times, just since starting this blog post. If that rant about listening to that song doesn't make you want to go listen to it, then I'll just tell you to go listen to it. You won't regret it, at all. My theory stands-some amazing, groundbreaking music comes out of the UK. The Script are three good looking Irishmen from Dublin.

Hopping across the pond, Sugarland has released their new CD, "The Incredible Machine." So far on the CD my favorite song is "Incredible Machine." It's a catchy little song that's stayed with me since they performed it back in May at the concert. It's just a powerful song. The piano is there, the drums, and her vocals all combined just makes it a good song. The live performance of this song is just plain out cool. It has a very creative, almost industrious sounding beat, it reminds me of a train. Like one of those old locomotives, don't ask me why, it just does. Then the lyrics take you on a journey. They're pretty fantastic. The documentary "Living Liner Notes" shows you how they recorded the song, it's only four minutes, and it's interesting. Sugarland is one of my favorite bands so I can't help but like whatever they do.

In other news, last night on SNL was downright hilarious at some parts. The weekend update was wondeful as always, that being my favorite part of the show. Emma Stone was this weeks host, and Kings of Leon being the musical guest. I don't know how many of you people watch SNL, but last night I don't know which was funnier Kristen Wiig's portrayal of a overly excited saleswoman type or Seth Meyers and Bill Hader cracking themselves up and the latter constantantly covering up his face. Then Emma Stone's monolouge was pretty awesome, but I don't think any monolouge will compare with Taylor Swift's. Then anything Justin Timberlake does on that show is hilarious. Andy Samberg is the Adam Sandler of the 2000's in my opinion. Who is in Jack Johnson's new video. Which is quite hilarious. (For all you Jack Johnson fans-the video's for "At or With Me.") I like this show if you can't tell.

One more song from the world then I'll let you be. "This Ain't a Love Song" by Scouting For Girls. I heard this on Radio 1 a few weeks back, and was all like 'I really like this!" It's an upbeat little ditty. They are native Londoners, with a pretty cool sound if you ask me. It's a piano soaked tone, and another one of those songs that you listen to once and it's stuck in your head. Plus, the official music video was filmed in an airport, and I really like airports. I know, weird, but I do.

OK, a week ago it was so hot you didn't need a jacket, but now it's raining, and so cold it kind of feels like January. It also doesn't help that when you walk through a store certain parts smell like Christmas. Yes, Christmas. We haven't even finished with Halloween yet. That's life, though.

Hope those songs brighten your dreary days, and you now have addicting songs to listen to through your headphones and get stuck in your head.

till next time
