Shake It Out (Acoustic) by Florence + The Machine

Regrets collect like old friends
here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way.

And all of the ghouls come out to play
Then every demon wants his pound of flesh
but I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues drawn
It’s always darkest before the dawn.

And I’ve been a fool and I’ve been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way

I’m always dragging that horse around
All of these questions, such a mournful sound
Tonight I’m gonna bury that horse in the ground
‘Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
It’s always darkest before the dawn.

It’s So Easy covered by Erica Bujuremark

Popular demand caused Audi to actually record the whole thing and give the song away for free.  Wicked.

Audi R18TDI - It’s So Easy (When You Know What You’re Doing)

Sung by Erica Bujuremark, covering Ted Lucas, is absolutely brilliant. I hope she records a full version.

Crusin’ by Smokey Robinson

Let the music take your mind
Just release and you will find
You’re gonna fly away
Glad you’re going my way
I love it when we’re cruisin’ together
The music is played for love,
Cruisin’ is made for love
I love it when we’re cruisin’ together

Some days…some days…

Some days…some days…

This is Alberta.  This is where I live.

The Winner Is by Devotchka

“
Love is but a prelude to life, an overture in which the theme of the impending work is exquisitely hinted at, but which remains nevertheless only a symbol and a promise. What is to follow, if all goes well, begins presently to appear. Passion settles down into possession, courtship into partnership, pleasure into habit. A child, half mystery and half plaything, comes to show us what we have done and to make its consequences perpetual. We see that by indulging our inclinations we have woven about us a net from which we cannot escape: our choices, bearing fruit, begin to manifest our destiny. That life which once seemed to spread out infinitely before us is narrowed to one mortal career. We learn that in morals the infinite is a chimera, and that in accomplishing anything definite a man renounces everything else. He sails henceforth for one point of the compass.
George Santayana, The Life of Reason

Young Blood by The Naked and Famous

We lie beneath the stars at night
Our hands gripping each other tight
You keep my secrets hope to die
Promises, swear them to the sky

The bittersweet between my teeth
Trying to find the in-betweens
Fall back in love eventually
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
