do you know, you're absolutely infectious

song of the day:

1. Back In Your Head by Tegan&Sara
tegan and sara's songs are quintessential indie, while still being different and interesting. is that possible? they're intense and mellow at the same time, and it makes you want to learn the words and sing with them. their raw voices are similar, but easy to tell apart. they're canadian, AND their twins. can it get better? if i were gay, i'd so be into them.
Tegan & Sara: Back In Your Head


2. Come on Petunia by The Blow
this is possibly the strangest combination of the Police and so-sweet-they're-creepy lyrics that has ever been one of my favorite songs. it is, however. khaela maricich took the chorus of the Police song "every little thing she does is magic" and turned it into a euphoric and mellow indie song that sounds nothing like the original. it's bizzare and magical all at the same time.
The Blow: Come On Petunia

3. Such Great Heights by the Postal Service
i know, i know, this song (and band) have been hit by the mainstream like a bum on a bologna sandwich. but, the song is still very good, and very calming. it's a long-time favorite.
