Musica

Yo!

So my dear friend Charmalade tells me I don't post enough. That's because my life is boring and there's already so much great content out there. Scratch that, my life isn't boring; it's germinating. It is fertile soil with seeds planted, but not enough sunshine yet for anything to sprout. How's that for a fun metaphor?

What I do have is a youtube playlist I made. I named her rock folk rock.

I was inspired by all the recommendations from a somewhat recent LeProust Vintage post entitled Jack White Would be Proud. Isn't that the coolest post?! LeProust has great followers, and so many of them contributed with suggestions. Love it! I just sifted through them and collected tracks from the ones I hadn't really heard of (with a few exceptions - the Stupid Bowl was going on at the same time so I also threw in the NFL theme song).

That's pretty much all I've got!

  3. Haha, I like how you effectively compared your current life to the little seeds that could. Grow metaphor, grow!

    Oh, and I liked your favorite chill-out song, it was most definitely a song to relax to. :)

  5. Nice metaphor. I think I can relate to it. The sun is always there shining. It is just that we either do not plant the right seeds, or garden them well or let the sunlight in.

    And I think life can be more exciting when it is not only about ourselves. Everything is subjected to balance. That's why we have certain amount of sunlight and certain amount of darknight.

    And you were right, I did change my header. Actually David designed it for me :) Thanks!

  7. oh yay! I am glad you found that post helpful too! I feel like with a professional and home life, my time to scour the internet for new bands that I may like has dwindled considerably. It was interesting that al of my readers have the exact same taste in music as myself!

  15. I'm a little late in the game, so perhaps the sun has made it sprout some :)

    Sorry I've been MIA, Emily, hope you are doing well!!!

  16. This playlist is awesome! I just took a listen to a few to get me out of this week's symphonic metal rut. (I know that probably sounds really silly/awkward, haha).
    PS - just added you to my blogroll so that I can keep updated when you post.
