Top 5: Music of the Week (8/22/11)

Something sweet and simple for the audiophiles.

Top 5 Songs I’ve Been Overplaying This Week:

In no particular order.

1. Sallie Ford and the Sound Outside – “I Swear”: Because I love pseudo-rockabilly and anything that’s remotely bluesy, grassy, or bluegrassy.

2. Steve Winwood – “Valerie”: OK, call me dumb but I had no idea this existed. I’m a huge fan of Eric Prydz and “Call On Me” is like the icing on a cake made of Ecstasy stamps and sex at a 90′s rave. It only makes sense that it was a fantastically cheesy 80′s tune.

3. One Man Army – “S.O.S.”: I’m a little biased here because One Man Army has become one of my favorite bands in the span of a month. Jack’s voice gives me the good-kind-of-shivers.

4. The View – “Grace”: I’ve been to Scotland. I love Scottish boys. This song is catchy as hell. It makes me angry just how catchy it is. F*** now it’s stuck in my head AGAIN. Foiled.

5. Rare Earth – “Get Ready”: Ignoring the lame-ness of this youtube video, this song is a-maze-ing. I’ve been playing it everyday and jiving around my bedroom.
