I'd like to hear it some more

seeing them open for cut copy april 2nd. yay!



Do It Again - Holy Ghost!

Hey what's the matter?
Nothing's the matter
That's why I can't leave my house
You must get lonely
I don't get lonely (so)
That's why I don't leave my house, (well)

Heading to the city
Well I guess it can't hurt
Nothing's on the television
On the networks
Take me outta context
Take me outta here
With the windows down
Scream it out
Really tune it out

Something going on but I don't know where
You're playing with each other
You're playing with your hair
The record seems broken
Really I don't care
With the windows down
Scream it loud
Really tune it out
Do it again, d-do it again
Do it again, d-do it again

Same club, same verdict
Same djs working
Feels like I've been here before
Haven't you heard it?
I don't think I've heard it
I'd like to hear it some more

how much could you know me?

free over at et musique pour tous
this isnt for anyone in particular i'm just in a mood.



Somebody To Love Me (Holy Ghost! Remix) - Mark Ronson

I don't wanna see you go,
I want somebody to love me,
Why'd it take so long to know,
I want somebody to love me,
I want somebody to be nice,
See the boy I once was in my eyes,
Nobody's gonna save my life

We are wicked men,
Looking for our buckles to loosen,
By the count of ten,
I wanna see somebody human,
And I lost what it was in the teenage dust of a downtown Romeo,
In a couple of weeks you can tell all the freaks how you carried my body home

But tonight, I crossed the line,
Dear Mr Lonely, how much could you know me?
I could find lessons in life,
But, once you’ve earned it, you’ve already burned it

I don't wanna see you go,
I want somebody to love me,
Why'd it take so long to know,
I want somebody to love me,
I want somebody to be nice,
See the boy I once was in my eyes,
Nobody's gonna save my life

Got my ticket, man,
I'm looking for somebody to use it,
I know we can tell,
But one of these days we're gonna lose it,
And the ones left town when the leaves turned brown with a couple of souvenirs,
She was in my car when we hit that wall, yeah, it could've moved me to tears

But tonight, I crossed the line,
I used to know her, when my house was sober,
I could find lessons in life,
Over and over, is it really over?

I don't wanna see you go,
I want somebody to love me,
Why'd it take so long to know,
I want somebody to love me,
I want somebody to be nice,
See the boy I once was in my eyes,
Nobody's gonna save my life,
Nobody's gonna save my life,
Nobody's gonna save my life

I will Come Back (Classixx Acapulco Nights Version) - Holy Ghost!



, originally uploaded by the five plus you and me.



Can we slow it down
Just for a moment, see
Some things never get old
Let us rearrange
We go perfectly
At least that's what I've been told

And your mother won't leave you alone
And your father won't leave you alone
In a minute things could change
At least until you get home
It's the middle of the night
That's my favorite part
Keeps me under the gun

There's a part of me
That keeps coming through
And I will come back, I will come back
To you

What a change of plans
I can't wait to see
What you come up with next
Point somewhere on the map
It's okay to leave
You can always come back

And your mother won't leave you alone
And your father won't leave you alone
So you book yourself a room
Where a video plays on a loop
It's the middle of the night, the night
That's my favorite part
Keeps me under the gun

There's a part of me
That keeps coming through
And I will come back, I will come back
To you
To you
To you
To you

made me a shadow in the shape of wonder

Things I love in this song:
Holy Ghost! plus MGMT what a combo!
astronomy themes
guitar at like 3:20
pretty much everything



Of Moons Birds and Monsters (Holy Ghost! remix) - MGMT


Even a bird would want a taste of dirt from abyssal dark
The prick of a feather could make the kingdom burn and the bloodshed start
The falling apart

Why'd you cut holes in the face of the moon base?
Don't you know about the temperature change in the cold black shadow?
Are you mad at your walls or hoping that an unknown force can repair things for you?
Pardon all the time that you've thrown into your pale gray garden
If the ship will never come, you've got to move along

Even a bird would want a taste of dirt from abyssal dark
The prick of a feather could make the kingdom burn and the bloodshed start
The falling apart
Made me a shadow in the shape of wonder, the waves of black
If she's going under I can hold my breath till the sky comes back
Even a bird would want a taste of dirt from abyssal dark
The prick of a feather could make the kingdom burn and the bloodshed start
The falling apart
Made me a shadow in the shape of wonder, the waves of black
If she's going under I can hold my breath till the sky comes back
Or drown like a rat
The falling apart
The falling apart
The falling apart
The falling apart
The falling apart
The falling apart

It will inspire on the burning pyre
Half the distance
Half the motion
It will inspire on the burning pyre
It's easy as the ocean

I believe in waking up together

epic.



Drunk Girls (Holy Ghost! Remix) - LCD Soundsystem

(Drunk girls)
(Drunk girls)
(Drunk girls)
(Drunk girls)

(Drunk girls)
Drunk girls cause a couple of heart attacks
And drunk girls are unusually mild
But drunk boys, drunk boys keep in pace with the pedophiles
And drunk girls are boringly wild

(Drunk girls)
Drunk girls get invitations from nations
They got the patience of a million saints
(Drunk boys)
They steal, they steal from the cupboards
And drunk girls, drunk girls like to file complaints
(Drunk girls)
(Drunk girls)
(Drunk boys)
(Drunk girls)

Drunk girls are like a night of simplicity
They need a lover who is smarter than me
Well, drunk boys, drunk boys, we walk like pedestrians
And the drunk girls wait an hour to pee

Drunk girls know that love is an astronaut
It comes back, but it's never the same
Darling, drunk boys have such beautiful feelings
And drunk girls can be just as insane

Oh oh oh
I believe in waking up together
So oh oh
That means making eyes across the room

(Drunk girls)
Just 'cause I'm shallow doesn't mean that I'm heartless
(Drunk girls)
Just 'cause I'm heartless doesn't mean that I'm mean
(Drunk boys)
But sometimes life gives us too many options
(Drunk girls)
Just 'cause you're hungry doesn't mean that you're lean

(Drunk girls)
I've heard lies that could curdle your heartstrings
(Drunk girls)
A couple truths, maybe burn out your eyes
(Drunk boys)
Drunk boys leave their irons in the fireplace
(Drunk girls)
'Cause drunk girls give them too many tries

(Drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls...)

Oh oh oh
I believe in waking up together
Oh oh oh
I believe I'm waking up, but no promises
Oh oh oh
I believe in waiting out the weather
Oh oh oh
I believe in making eyes across the room
(When day becomes the night)
Oh oh oh
I believe in waking up together
(When day becomes the night)
Oh oh oh
I believe I'm waking up, but still
(When day becomes the night)
Honestly, honestly, honestly
Unless it hurts, why do it?
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
(When day becomes the night)
(When day becomes the night)
(When day becomes the night)

hot chip concert review

Yesterday I saw Holy Ghost! and Hercules and Love Affair open for Hot Chip at the central park summerstage. I finally got around to getting my laptop repaired but this meant, unfortunately, that I had to bring it to the concert. Still, I am very glad to have it with me in Chicago. Allow me to extol my favorite virtues of this laptop: wide screen so I can have a ton of things open at once, working battery unlike my temporary laptop, light-up keyboard, 35 gigs of my music, a sexy hipster spiderman desktop background.

Anyway, back to the concert. Holy Ghost! opened and were AWESOME. The vocals were great, and the keyboard and synth and guitar. Basically, everything. They're as good live as they are on mp3s and that's saying a lot. I'd totally see them again, hopefully for a longer set.

Hercules and love affair was a bit of a disappointment for me. They came on in an awesome seemingly random group of individuals including two dancers. I was more taken the on-stage antics than anything. I could easily chalk it up to them poorly miked because hercules and love affair sounded significantly quieter than the other two groups and it was hard to get into it. I'd like to see them again in a smaller venue, late at night and very loud with some tequila-based drink in my hand.

Hot chip was adorable. They were one man short as Joe Goddard was having a baby but they had a video of him play for a couple key songs. I was skeptical at first that they could be as good live as they are in the studio but they delivered. They sounded more like a rock band often than electropop or however you'd usually categorize them. All in all, good show, not the best but solid. Worth seeing again.


Holy Ghost!

My phone died so I have no pictures of hot chip =(

aaaah awesome summer concerts!

there's no better motivation to survive finals than a summer full of kickass music. i'm contemplating bonnaroo if i can find people willing to road trip it with me. here's what's planned for nyc so far:

June 17 - Neon Indian at the music hall of williamsburg. i have been dying to see them live seriously psychic chasms is one of my favorite albums of all time. if i go to bonnaroo i'll get to see them twice in one week. crazy. ON SALE FRIDAY
June 21 - Goldfrapp at hammerstein ballroom. eh, goldfrapp is cool but not a top priority. right now i have to prioritize due to cash flow issues. it's $42.50. her new album is solid i've just always found her a little too pop-y. ON SALE FRIDAY
June 30 - Passion Pit and Tokyo Police Club at governor's island. i just saw passion pit like the other month so i'm def not going to this. they were ok live honestly i preferred their recorded stuff. also there were huge amounts of teenyboppers which, to me at least, detracts from the experience. $40. ON SALE NOW
July 24 - M.I.A. on governors island. i already saw m.i.a. in concert last year and it was great so i'm not so eager to go again so soon especially to governors island cause then you have that ferry and the whole thing is $60. ouch. if you're interested, though, she's good live. looks like ninjasonik and some other artists will be there too. ON SALE NOW
July 28 - The Black Keys at the central park summer stage. $35 so i gotta save up cause of all the other tickets i'm buying and cause they're not a tip-top priority but yeah i bet theyre awesome live and their show for the day before (July 27th) already sold out. Also, they'll be at bonnaroo if i can go. ON SALE NOW
August 4 - HOT CHIP with Hercules and Love Affair AND Holy Ghost! at the central park summer stage. $35 just bought my ticket i am so obsessed their new album is awesome! Now who's coming with? And Hercules and Love Affair and Holy Ghost are hotness and will surely bring their own fans =) ON SALE NOW
August 21 - Crystal Castles at terminal 5 AAAAH i'm SO excited. c'mon it's crystal fucking castles!! bummer it's so expensive looks like it's $45. I predict this concert will sell out faster than you can blink. ON SALE FRIDAY

i have my phone programmed to remind me when to buy the neon indian and crystal castles tickets. is anyone else as excited as i am? are there any missing from the list? let me know
