random new music

okay, so i've been getting some random songs lately, so i tought i'd share.
i get most of these from youtube, cheating the system, because i'm so cheap.
[i heart hyperlinks]
okay, so let's see how we're gonna do this...

1. Life Effect by Stars. stevie likes them? so i heard it was good, so i BOUGHT (omg) it and i love it. it's quiet, and slow, kinda sad i think, but good. loves the line "who made you happy last night? i don't know his name, but Christ, can he fight?"
2. Memory by Sugarcult. that band is actually very good. this is the only song i've heard so far, but maybe i'll do more. probably not though, but Memory is very good.
3. I'll Catch You by The Get Up Kids. stevie likes them too. lol. lots of just instrumental parts, then it's quiet singing. gooood.

i actually bought those songs. what was i thinking. i do like them though, so it wasn't a waste. okay, now for the contriband videos.

1. Dark Blue by Jack's Mannequinn. omg i love this song. like, how come i didn't like JM before? and i've heard some of their other songs, soo good! i'm in love with Dark Blue
2. Rock Your Soul by Elisa. such a beautiful song. she has quite the voice, too. it's good, and someone danced to it on SYTYCD (courtney maybe, solo?). i think it's beautiful.
3. Foundations by Kate Nash. she's like british, what could be better? so she sings with an accent! i find the song funny, but also not. it's good too
4. Where Does the Good Go? by Tegan and Sara. lol stevie likes them too, but that's not why i listened to them. we danced to this song in jazz, and i loved it, so i looked up the lyrics and found it. it just so happened to by by T&S. they're twins i think.
5. Back in Your Head by Tegan and Sara. this is really good too, but i didn't really like it the first time i heard it. which was in one of stevie's videos, he did like a music video. i like his better than the real one :) he just has good taste in music, is all, it's not like i'm trying to be the boy. (well... no)
6. Dreamworld by Rilo Kiley. is Rilo Kiley a boy or a girl? could someone find that out? maybe it's both, like in a group. but then who is rilo? we danced to this song in modern lol so i looked it up. mind you, i did this 'research' in school too. i guess i could mention that stevie may like Rilo Kiley too, but that was TOTALLY ACCIDENTAL because i didn't know who it was singing until after i liked it.

boy, me and stevie are like one...

• oh, and i also kinda like Tokio Hotel, 'ready set go' and 'monsoon'. so glad they beat out miley for best new artist! suck it miley! (omg totally innapropriate joke could go right here)

that's it for now!

??

hey, why are there no comments on
this post?
it's old. but go back, read it, and comment please. that's an order.

EVERY AVENUE

SHH. JUST GO WITH IT

OMG I LOVE THIS ALBUM! i'll go through all the songs now i guess...
DAYS OF THE OLD. great dance song. omg i just sing real loud and dance around. loves it!
THIS ONE'S A CHEAP SHOT. not one of my favys, but it's still good to dance to.
WHERE WERE YOU? this is the first one i ever heard, like a year ago. so now i know all the words! i still love it, of course i dance. okay, i dance around to this whole album...
THINK OF YOU LATER (EMPTY ROOM). my favy ever. i love it. i want it as a ring tone, even though it's $2.50 to buy because i don't have an iphone so i can't mix my own version for a dollar. gah. but omg this song is great. wonderful. best.
A STORY TO TELL YOUR FRIENDS. this was little sister's favy song! lol. it was mine for a while. it's great, this is like their [first?] single or something. so good.
BOYS WILL BE BOYS. i didn't like this as much before, but now every time i hear it i like it, so it must be good!
TAKE A STEP BACK. probably my least favorite on the album, but still very good.
TRADING HEARTBEATS. actually very good, and catchy. lol, "you're just trading heartbeats baby, you're just changing the person between your sheets." haha
FREAK OUT! the (!) was in the title. this is good too... this is the one with the line about a ship in the chorus? yes?
BETWEEN YOU AND I. beautiful. this was my fave for a while too. SO GOOD. slow, because you know i'm a sucker for the piano ballads. and dave's voice is so good. i read this review of the album though, and the guy was like "why must every band have one shitty ballad?" or something like that. umm... the ballads are always my favorite on the albums... lol. it's not bad, it's great. and so sad.
CHASING THE NIGHT. this is good too, very... upbeat. and cheerful. and a good end to the album, i think. 'days of the old' was kinda about the end of the summer, and i feel like this one is too, just living big while you can

AND OMG I MET EVERY AVENUE! but you knew that, right? but i didn't really know their music then, and now i'm in love. so thank you! idk who or what for, but thank you.

RAISIN RODRIGUEZ AND THE BIG-TIME SMOOCH

JUDY GOLDSCHMIDT
lol i read this a long time ago too.
it's the sequel to 'the secret blog of raisin rodriguez' (review down below)
and omg raisin is sooo funny. she's kinda like me. jk
and she has these great friends, who comment on her blog. i wish someone would comment on my blog...
but anyways raisin wants CJ to kiss her, but her plans always seem to go awry. omg she's just like raven! or miley! or those other disney girls!
i lol'd during this book. thank's for givin' it to me "M".
now i just have to read the three-quil!

ECHO

KATE MORGENROTH
i read this a long time ago lol

but it's a sad story, cuz a kid accidentally kills himself and i was like OMG reading it. and then it's the one year anniversary, and his older brother, who watched him die, is like having flashbacks. and he hears this voice in his head and stuff
so then he's living one day over and over again.
oh, and there's a reason there's a dead bunny on the cover.
Echo is good, and it's short too, not a big commitment. lol
i like the part behind the theater!! :)

making some changes

so this bloggin thing is really hard
and i'm sorry, but i don't have time to do long huge posts about project runway or antm. it takes too long and it's not that fun.
i'm not complaining, i like doing this, but it's not like anybody reads this.

so i'm thinking of making some changes
i won't be making huge posts for each Runway episode (how could i possibly catch up!?) or for other shows. i'll make occasional ones for the general season, you know, like what i'm thinking about it. pictures? maybe...

and i really like just doing random posts for books and music or my life, so i'll be doing that, along with opinions of the shows, but not whole review things.

okay?
why am i asking your opinion?

sorry, but it'll be easier this way. less stressful, because a secret blog shouldn't be stressful.
well, only a little.
[heart]

FINALE RESULTS SHOW

did i ever tell you that Joshua won so you think you can dance?
well, he did, and i was super happy for him
he was my favy, and he was sooo funny
i voted for him!
twitch was in second, which was also good. think about it, two street dancers in the top two spots. good job.

stung

i went to the buckskinners today
and i got stung by a goddam bee.
gah. it hurts soo bad.
right on the back of my thigh, under my butt.
i call it a buttbite.
we were standing in line for "jerked beef", which ended up tasting like ass, so it wasn't even worth it.
but i did have the most delicious root beer ever, which is what the bee was after.
or he just wanted to get in my pants.



((ooooo get it? i kill myself!))

sick

i'm sick

always sick

bah

stevie says it best

although, do i agree about fall out boy? for 20 hours? yeah.... i agree

yikes.

oh yeah, seriously contact me if you find that cure.

i think i am lazy

seriously
sorry

DIARY

CHUCK PALAHNIUK
i can't say that guy's last name. i've heard he was really good (i have my sources) and so now i wanna read all his books. the library doesn't have Choke, how am i supposed to read it?
Diary is like a coma diary, written by Misty, to her husband Peter. he tried to kill himself in their car, but now he's in a coma. a gross coma, with his muscles all nasty, it's grafic. ick.
Misty's like this super good artist, but she married Peter and moved to this tiny little island and had a kid. there's this big thing about this crappy jewelry, but you'd have to read it, i can't explain.
Diary turns out to be a lot creepier than i originally thought it would be. like seriously, this island's messed up.
SUCH a good book, read it!
so do i want to read choke? i started to on B&N.com, it was gooood. and i read part of Snuff. which is about this giant, record breaking porno. hmmm....
he's written other stuff, i'll have to check it out.
but i hear all of his books are good (again, my sources), so whatever...

I LOVE YOU, BETH COOPER

LARRY DOYLE
this book was really funny. Larry's like an old writer for the Simpsons or something, so it was good. lots of pop culture and stuff, which i love.
nerdy validictorian (sorry, i butchered it) Denis Cooverman gives his speach at graduation, and says... "i love you, beth cooper"
beth is the popular cheerleader that doesn't know Denis exists.
one crazy graduation night ensues. seriously, the book is all about one night, it's real long.
and of course, beth's giant boyfriend is home from the army, and he (with his equally giant army friends) try to kill Denis and his bestie Rich (who's like this crazy movie fanatic, always citing movies and quotes) multiple times.
really funny.

:(

back to school gah!
