Today: Something New

Continuing in my songs for summer playlist is "Moving to Neptune" from Cruiser. I love the summery beach feel of this song.



The guitar riff is great throughout this song and the vocals are super mellow but catchy. I love the different sounds of the verses and the chorus. Check out their self-titled EP.

Today: Something New

My love for Keane has been long standing. There new album, "Strangeland," shows how they have evolved from their earlier projects. I always love the piano in Keane's song, and the piano in the chorus of "Disconnected" compliments the vocals nice. There are really good harmonies there.

Today: Something New

The ever-magical Regina Spektor released a new album this week, "What We Saw From the Cheap Seats."



I am so jealous of her range. Her jumps are crazy! And the way she uses her voice as an instrument. I think the most striking quality of her songs is what she chooses to repeat. Emphasizing something different with each repetition. My only complaint about "Small Town Moon" is that it is so short.
