Songs Of The Week ~ The Kooks, Baby Bash, Flight Facilities, J Roddy Walston & The Business, By Divine Right

by Carmen Cruz

Musical Goodness.

The Kooks ~ Sweet Emotion - Can't...Stop...Listening. On repeat daily. **This is clearly not the music video for this tune but sadly, there isn't one available yet. This is as good as it gets for now. **


Flight Facilities ~ Two Bodies ft. Emma Louise


Baby Bash - Suga Suga (Royal Refix) - A tune from back in 2003. A seriously solid remix.




J Roddy Walston & The Business ~ Take It As It Comes


By Divine Right ~ Just Can't Get Enough (Depeche Mode Cover) - This is a quirky one, but I have to say that I really, really like it. And yes, I was just as shocked to see that this Canadian indie rock band is still alive and kicking. Cool cover, no?


Enjoy.

Musical Awesomeness.

Saul Williams ~ List Make Of Demands - If this tune comes on while you're running/working out, you're probably gonna pull something...
 

Kings Of Leon ~ Supersoaker - A fun and upbeat song from King Of Leon's new upcoming album called 'Mechanical Bull' (out September 24rth). Sounds awesome!


Amy Winehouse ~ You Know I'm No Good


Washed Out ~ Don't Give Up - Looking for the perfect soundtrack to play while lounging at the beach? Washed Out is whatcha wanna listen to. This song is off their new album called 'Paracosm' (out August 13th). So GooooooOOOOooooood.


Depeche Mode ~ Enjoy The Silence - This song always reminds me of driving around the River Valley in Edmonton in the summertime. Yes, we have summer in Edmonton. You know that elusive list of your top 25 songs of all time? This one is on that list for me.
When oh when will these boys make their way to Vancouver?!?!?!


Enjoy.
