• The Man by The Killers

    I’ve never been much of a fan of The Killers. However, this song is an absolute banger. Loved it from the first listen.

  • California Dreamin’ by The Mamas and the Papas

    Stopped into a church I passed along the way.
    Well, I got down on my knees (got down on my knees) And I pretend to pray (I pretend to pray)

    California Dreamin’ by The Mamas and the Papas

    Something in this song feels haunting to me. I can’t quite place my finger on it. It could be the way that each of their voices meets in that ethereal plane that few bands have managed to reach – a sound that I associate with the golden age of music, at least in my opinion.

    I remember watching part of a film in college film studies called “Chungking Express“, which featured this song prominently. I never really paid attention to that film, but I can’t help but feel I should go back and watch it now I’m older and… wiser?

  • Fight Music — D12

    The type of shit that causes mass confusion
    And drastic movement of people actin stupid

    Fight Music — D12
  • Far From Alive — Resident Evil 2 Rap

    At first I thought that this would be a bit of a gimmick, but it has legit grown on me and is now in my regular playlist.

    I am addicted to running around the world of Raccoon City in Resident Evil 2 and the recently-released Resident Evil 3 Remake.

    I’m looking forward to any music that the same creator can bring from RE3’s world in the coming weeks / months.

  • More by The Sisters of Mercy

    Some people get by
    With a little understanding
    Some people get by
    With a whole lot more

    Lyrics by Jim Steinman

    My first time hearing this song was in fact as a cover by Meat Loaf on his album Braver Than We Are. The song was actually written by Jim Steinman whose most well-known collaborator is Meat Loaf. And he has been known to reuse his songs for different artists over the years

  • Thieves in the Temple by Prince

    Love come quick
    Love come in a hurry
    There are thieves in the temple tonight

    They don’t care where they kick
    Just as long as they hurt you
    There are thieves in the temple tonight

    First lyrics from Thieves in the Template by Prince
  • Ladyhawke – Wild Things Video

    I can’t express how much Ladyhawke’s music has grown on me in the short month since I discovered her.

    The song “Wild Things” was immediately one of my favourites from her latest album of the same name.

    I have just seen the music video for this song and it has somehow made me love the song even more. Such a powerful song, and powerful delivery, make this one of my all time favourite songs I think.
