Summer Jams 2009

This post is for Catherine who is looking for some tunes to pass through her summer in San Fran (and by San Fran I really mean Emoryville... yay!).  Here you go, Cath, a short list of what I'm currently jammin to:

- "Nothing to Worry About"  by Peter Bjorn and John.  Trust me, you will love this one.  

- "Heads will Roll"  by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. From the new and very mellow album, this song is one of the most dance appropriate songs.  

- "Deceptacon" by Le Tigre.  I don't know why I like this song, but I do, so there.

- "Buildings and Mountains" by the Republic Tigers.  Love these indie rockers.  

- "Red Morning Light" by Kings of Leon.  I don't have anything to say about them.  I just like them.

- "I'd Rather Dance with You" by Kings of Convenience.  This song sounds like it should have been in some eighties movie starring Matthew Broderick.  not sure why.

- "Comme des Enfants" by Coeur de Pirate.  cute little frenchie group a friend turned me on to.  

- "I'm a Lady" by Santogold.  Before Lady Gaga burst onto the scene wearing leotards with no pants, there was Santogold rocking gold unitards and sneakers.  

- "This is your Life"  by The Killers.  I love their latest album, and although I like 99% of the songs on the album,  this one has stepped into the forefront to become one of my favorites.

- "Life your Life" (Featuring Rihanna) by T.I.  You should try running to this song.  Excellent.

There you go, Cath.  That should hold ya off for a little while...
