Nov. 27th, 2009 02:44 pmSo in theory I love the idea of Thanksgiving. A holiday dedicated to giving thanks! I've got a lot to be thankful for, and I try to remember that, but it's important to have special time set aside to count your blessings.
Or so I'd like to believe. The last few Thanksgivings I've had have been monumentally lame. (For those playing around at home: One black eye, two bruised knuckles, two flooded rooms in my house, one bout of food poisoning (mild), seventeen billion essays to write, harassment of the landlady, AND TODAY IS ONLY FRIDAY.)
In lieu of more whining, here are the two songs I can't stop listening to this week:
The Knux- Bang Bang!
The Knux are... ok, to be quite frank, I am not exactly sure where one draws the line between hip-hop and rap, but I'm pretty sure these guys come down on the hip-hop side. This is my current favorite song to run to.
Florence and the Machine- My Boy Builds Coffins
This is very indy-pop, and I really want it to be a metaphor for something, but I can't for the life of me figure out what for. I like it a lot, because I held great aspirations of becoming a cabinetmaker for a long time. Mmmm, fussy woodworking.
