Five Songs For Wednesday

Clicking the images will take you to the song on youtube.

1. San Cisco - Awkward

For some reason I love crazy person songs (Paramore's Crazy Girl, No Doubt's Bathwater), so this is right up my street. Please please tell me if you know any more of these kinds of songs. I think this is my favourite so far. 

2. The Chemical Brothers - The Salmon Dance

People seem to either really love this song or think it's completely stupid. I, of course, think it's brilliant. It's silly but so what. The video is once again a total piece of art. 

3. Muse - Panic Station

I'm definitely still on a high from seeing Muse a couple of weeks ago. They sounded so completely polished and having real drones flying around the stadium was insane. My housemate is convinced she is the future Mrs Bellamy and if that means we get to be mates then that's fine by me. This is one of my favourite Muse songs. 

4. Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice

My friend made me watch the video of this to see Christopher Walken dancing and I fell in love with him a bit. Great song, great video.

5. Nothing But Thieves - Trip Switch

For some reason, it really makes me cringe when the name of a song is heavily featured in the lyrics, so this was more of a grower. But it is another fantastic song from a great band. 

Once again, I'd love to hear any recommendations. Especially for crazy girl songs!

Five great songs for Wednesday

Clicking the images will take you to the song on youtube.

1. Milky Chance - Stolen Dance (2013)

A mellow, summery song from a German folk music duo.

2. Nothing But Thieves - Itch (2015)

I recently saw Nothing But Thieves support Muse and they were absolutely fantastic live. This is my favourite track from their self titled album.

3.The Coral - Dreaming Of You (2002)

A classic from their debut album that has made it's way back onto my daily playlist. This made it to NME's top 150 songs of the past 15 years.

4. The Maccabees - Marks To Prove It (2015)

This is the first track from The Maccabees' latest album. I'm a huge fan of what they're producing at the moment and find this is a great track to start the day with.

5. Zara Larsson - Lush Life (2015)

Whilst this isn't the sort of thing I'd usually listen to, something about this caught me and I've been listening to it on repeat for the past few days. The video is also fun and laid back, not to mention she's only 18... kind of makes me wonder what I'm doing with my life...

So that's my current top five, I'm always keen to hear about new music so please leave your reccomendations in the comments!
