Fake Plastic Trees – Radiohead
This is an older Radiohead song and one of my favorites. Its from their second album The Bends which is fantastic.
Month: April 2008
Tessellate – Tokyo Police Club
This band is all the rage on the Hype Machine these days. Really digging this band and this song. Thank you Hype Machine.
Cool Bug apps are coming along. Love it.
Open Your Eyes – Snow Patrol
I’ve always loved this band but I haven’t listened to them in a long time. Yesterday when I was driving up to New Hampshire “Chasing Cars” came on the radio and I was back in a Snow Patrol zone. Love this song. Enjoy.
Kerris was the first person to show Keith Richards an iPod.“I said ‘This can hold 4,000 songs.’ He looked at it and looked up and said ‘I better start writing.’
Heroes – David Bowie (acoustic)
The other day I posted a Bowie cover. But there is nothing like the real thing.
The Police – So Lonely
What a total jam.
I didn’t have any inspiration for my song of the day this morning. But then I launched Tumblr Soundbox and heard this blast from the past. Love it.
Dancing with Lauren while waiting for the runners at the Boston marathon (via bsabet)
Morale is tremendously important to a startup—so important that morale alone is almost enough to determine success. Startups are often described as emotional roller-coasters. One minute you’re going to take over the world, and the next you’re doomed. The problem with feeling you’re doomed is not just that it makes you unhappy, but that it makes you stop working. So the downhills of the roller-coaster are more of a self fulfilling prophecy than the uphills. If feeling you’re going to succeed makes you work harder, that probably improves your chances of succeeding, but if feeling you’re going to fail makes you stop working, that practically guarantees you’ll fail.
Let’s Dance – M.Ward
I think I could listen to M.Ward sing all day. Some die hard Bowie fans won’t like this cover but it works mighty fine for me. Acoustic and raw. Pure emotion.
