The Best Band In The World Right Now

I am just in love with the Arcade Fire right now.
Try listening to their song Wake Up while hanging half way off your bed and see if it does not make you cry.

Song of the week

I have a problem. When I like a song I listen to it to much and then I don't like it anymore. So I have to limit myself to listening to songs I like only once or twice a day. This week that song is
Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton's- Our Hell
I really want listen to it right now but I already listened to it today so I guess I will just go to sleep.

What is your song of the week?

Letter 1

Dear Katie,
Hola. (The extent of my spanish vocabulary). So, how's P.R.? And where's that postcard you promised, huh? Well, I understand, you're probably pretty busy. And so am I, but I just happened to get motivated today (Sunday) so it's 4:30 and I already finished my homework. It's so nice to have a public school amount of homework - only 1 1/2 hrs. Well, I turned 16 last Wednesday (finally) not that it means anything. But I finished driver's ed, so I think I might actually take my licence test in a couple of weeks. Not that I have a car or anything, but at least I'll be able to borrow my mom's and have a little more freedom. Ow! My hand hurts. too much writing. So now I'm using my left hand. I'll forgive you if you cant read this. My history class is boring this year- no kirbistas to spice it up. Well, enough of that it takes me so long to write with my left hand that my right hand had a chance to rest. Well, I guess that is all.
Please write back!
TC
p.s. here's my dorky school picture for you! Lucky duck!

On the lookout

I am always looking for good new music. Music that makes me feel good or bad or both. I just got home to find a few CDs I ordered had arrived.

Bloc Party - A Weekend In The City
I really liked Bloc Party's - Silent Alarm it was fun to run to because it had strong drums and it made me feel happy even though the lyrics were sometimes the opposite. I am still trying to decide it lyrics or music are more important to me.

The other CD I got was:

Loney, Dear - Loney, Noir
I don't know much about this one I just heard one song on a website and thought it was good so I thought I would check it out.

I will let you know about these two CDs.

How do you find new music (friends, the web, NPR)?
