1. Nine in the Afternoon by Panic! at the Disco
nine in the afternoon is the first song off of Panic!'s sophomore album. most of these turn out in a "sophomore slump", but i don't think that theirs will. they have a pretty good track record for amazing songs. and their lead singer is a punk rock brand of unmistakeably beautiful. this song has a catchy melody, which is the first thing noticed about it. after a while of staring at the title, i realized that nine in the afternoon is an impossible concept. which, of course, makes the song exactly what it is: a completely worthwhile three ring circus of the upbeat and impossible.

2. Oxford Comma by Vampire Weekend
so, this is the third time that VW has been featured in this column. but their music is wonderful, and Ezra Koenig is so very beautiful. it's true that oxford comma drops the f-bomb twice but this song is worth taking a large gulp and ignoring it. vampire weekend was formed from students at Colombia University: from which i received a letter asking me to attend today. either way, oxford comma is a very catchy song whose lyrics will be appreciated by intellectuals, and whose mellow beat will appreciated by those less bright.

3. Love Today by MIKA
oh, MIKA. hailed by some as the "gay brit who's overtaken american music", he is still extremely attractive and with very catchy music. this morroccan/french/british singer/songwriter is hated by many males, and adored by many females. there isn't a bad song on his CD; he's clean in every possible sense of the word and makes one want to cuddle with him. whether he's gay or not, his music is wonderful...as is his hair.
