So this weekend, I've pretty much been Mr. Lame. I spent Friday night at home, and now tonight as well. But that's fine, no problem here. It gives me time to rest, recoup, and get some good old fashion thinking done. As the weather's getting colder, my mind tends to wander aimlessly looking for something to hold on to. Sometimes it wanders too much, and keeps me up at night. So here are a couple nice songs to knock you out if you're lame like me, and are spending some quality time with yourself tonight.
The Rocket Summer - Christmas Present
I actually just started listening to The Rocket Summer a little while ago, and this song is just so nice. I love songs that are more instrumental then verse, and that's exactly what this song is.
Ben Gibbard - Brand New Colony (Acoustic)
Oh Ben Gibbard. Seriously, in my own opinion, I think he's incredible. His lyrics are always so fantastical and inspiring. This is him covering his band The Postal Service's "Brand New Colony", which I almost think is better then the original. If you haven't heard his acoustic stuff, you should really give it a listen.
City And Colour - Comin' Home
Now, I can't say that I'm a huge fan of Dallas Green, but I can say that I love this song. For those of you who aren't aware, City And Colour is the solo project of Dallas Green from the Canadian Hardcore band Alexisonfire. I think the reason why I'm not such a huge fan of his is because when he first dropped a single, they played the shit (excuse my language) out of it on Canadian radio, and continued to do the same with every single he dropped. This song just stuck with me, and I usually listen to it any time I'm, you guessed it, Comin' Home.
