Christmas came and went...

Boring, but whatever. I don't have the 'oh my god, we're such a close family' type of family so it was sleep, and random movies. (I watched "Richie Rich" because I could.) Anwyay, I got random giftcards, but bought myself some cool stuff from AE. So yeah. Another useless holiday. Oh and as a Christmas present (although I'm pretty sure that you won't necessarily care) two new songs that are interesting me

Solange- "Would've Been the One"


Don't ask. I heard it in my friends car, and she's trying so hard to be anti Beyonce that I think I'm just saying whatever and giving her a chance. Something about this song is banging. Or maybe I was just watching "The Temptations" movie too much so I'm in a doo-wopey mood. Anyway it's a good song and the album "Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams" seems like it's worth checking out. If I ever care enough about her I'll take a full listen. Don't hold your breath though.

Jason Mraz "Butterfly"



Again I think that Temptations movie got to me because this is another throwback sound. Very 70s dance disco-pop, and despite his nerdiness I like the song. I don't think he really has the swagger to pull of these lyrics, but I mean I guess it's a "Revenge of the Nerds" kind of thing. So yea. It's a clever song, in a weird way. I really don't want to know who/what inspired this however.
