Music to start you off. Best of 2009!

I know it is well into February, but I might as well catch you up with what you should start listening to, and what I've been loving.

1) Blind Pilot- "3 Rounds and a Sound" (Portland at its finest! One of my favorite bands of all time)


2) Marina and the Diamonds (The best Brit I've come across. Phenomenal is an understatement)


3) Sea Wolf- "White Water, White Bloom" (I can't get enough of this album. Seems to be stuck on repeat on my itunes)


4) Lady Gaga (OF COURSE!)
Best Music Video of the Year...


5) Carolina Liar- "Coming To Terms" (My summer anthem)


6) Florence and the Machine- "Lungs" (Second best Brit...but just as amazing)


7) Decemberists- "Hazards of Love" (Hazards of Love album is like nothing else...and the album in its entirety live is beyond words)


8) Jimmy Eat World- "Clarity Live" (Of course Clarity Live! Not only is Clarity the best Jimmy album, the live concert of it was the best I've seen, and the live album commemorates it all. Not to mention I'm on the album back cover)
