It's the surprises, the small happenings that bring the light of happiness: aka Rachael Yamagata has new songs!

It's always the best when something wonderful happens out of the blue. There's no waiting, anticipating. You just wake one morning and BAM, Rachael Yamagata blesses you with a 6 song EP called Heavyweight.
A beautiful day for new music.
Review to come soon. Till then go buy her music either on iTunes or at her website :)
Below is the audio for the title track. Enjoy.

 

Morning Music Videos: For that Hump day

I didn't know Trent Reznor had a new project with Atticus Ross and a beautiful woman. Did you? 

Well this new venture is called How to Destroy Angels. The following video from them is called Ice Age. I'm digging this folksiness and I'm in love with the vocals. Check it out below or go HERE and check out the video and their homepage. 
 

Second discovery of the day is a sister band called HAIM. Talented girls rocking out new wave style. I got excited listening/watching them. We don't have enough legitimate women rockers with a flare for the 80's. Check out their video for Don't Save Me. Watch below or click HERE for big version

Lastly, I have to include Will.i.am ft. Britney Spears song Scream & Shout. It's a good club song. Also, Britney is channeling Madonna's British accent and it makes me happy for some reason. Not everything is explainable. The video is just fine. I bet this song makes it onto a lot of workout playlists. Watch below or Click HERE 

 

Paloma Faith Video: Just Be. A song for the romantics

I've become a HUGE fan of Paloma Faith and her album Fall to Grace. She's my new Adele; soulful, poignant, beautiful, English. It's generally what I crave. 
Well I'm so happy to announce that Paloma has released the video to my favorite song on the album called Just Be.
Just Be is a modern take on being in love, mixing the downs with the ups and coming out on top. I love the song because it highlights the flaws in love and relationships, and yet still keeps you high on the love. Isn't true love about endurance and patience and together growth?

The travesty that is Lidsay Lohan's Liz: The Why Not Mindy Review

Yes, I watched it. I couldn't help myself. I was drawn to the inevitable train wreck that is always attached to Lohan. This made for TV movie was helmed as Lindsay Lohan's 'big return', even though she's not known as a TV actress. That was the first problem. Why not just embrace, "Motion Picture Studio's don't want her. She's virtually unemployable because of insurance. Maybe TV?" Here's the funniest, Lohan didn't receive a check until after production had wrapped, per her instructions. That was her way of showing producers, head honcho men that she was BORN to play Elizabeth Taylor; and that she'd stick around long enough to shoot all her scenes. For that, I say, bravo. Way to make it through your job.
The movie, Liz & Dick, was terrible. Not just because we have Lindsay Lohan playing the iconic Taylor, but also because the script was horrid. Down right embarrassing. There wasn't a bit of nuance throughout the insufferable 90 minutes. Lohan tried to deilver an accent that only sounded like herself with too many cigarettes and a mock play at Madonna's British accent. Lohan never had that untouchable beauty that Liz had, she only had that Lindsay face. The wardrobe was remarkable, but the aging making was lacking. You can not put a wig on a 26 yr old actress and call her old, you need proper make up. Silly. 
What is over all the saddest for me is the story of Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor sounds remarkable. A story that should have been saved for capable writers, directors, and actors. Their love story is not like any fairy tale, but it is romantic, and certainly a story that should be told. I'm sorry it got told through Lohan and Lifetime.
Next time perhaps. Because in Hollywood, there's always a next time.

Weekend Music Videos: 3

This fine weekend deserves a little kick back music video watching fun. I got three for ya. 
The first and my favorite for the week, mostly because the song is a sexy mix of a bluesy, pop powerhouse vocals and 90's production,  is South African songstress  Nikki Williams' Kill, Fuck, Marry You. The title alone should be intriguing enough

Next, we have The Weekend's Wicked Games. This sexy slow jam has been on my favorite playlist for about a year. I was very happy to see a video release. The video is smooth and simple. And sexy. Mmmm.
Makes me wanna slow dance. I recommend The Weekend's House of balloons (Official Mixtape)as a nice kicked back R&B album. More Music coming from The Weekend super soon. :)

The last video comes from British ginger Ed Sheeran. The song "Give me Love" is nice and fine and I'll love it for now. I took a real liking to the video. I love story telling through music videos, and this story is neat. I smiled.

Happy weekend. 

American Horror Story, I am now on board.

I've been hard on American Horror Story Asylum. I freely admit it. I had my head set that this "season" should connect with "season 1." 
Perhaps if I had started Asylum with an open mind, my disappointment wouldn't have been so high. 
Something happen last night during the latest episode, I found myself enjoying the show. AND, I almost got scared. 
American Horror Story has been renewed for a third "season." I keep using quotes on the word season because I'm still unsure how this show fits into the norm of serialized shows. 
There I go again trying to box up this show into something tidy. It just isn't. It's doing something new and I accept that now. After letting go of my preconceived notions of HOW I thought the show should run its course, I realized I was on the wrong course. 
Week to week I've bitched about the show, but I sure was filled with anticipation for each episode. 
Maybe it was last nights episode that turned me upside down, spanked my bottom, and yelled "This is the track, get on or get gone."
So, I'm on. Full out on board. 
As far as Season 3 is concerned, Jessica Lange has already committed. No other words just yet on the other actors. I'm curious to where and when the next installment takes place. 
I said before that Ryan Murphy is excellent at Season 1s. That's what he's doing, is it not? I think he found the way to be awesome at the same show every year; keep the title, the theme, but change the story. Sophomore slump avoided. Bravo Ryan. Bravo.
