I've been listening to Boyce Avenue covers all morning. He's awesome.

Ummmm....Let's see. I've been on an Ingrid Michaelson kick lately.

You know I love me some Oasis.

And Billy Joel I've been listening to a lot (I love this alot).

I've been in a weird mood lately, obvsies.

Brie2010

I love Florence and the Machine.  Good call.

I'm lame, I've been on a podcast kick lately. 

baystateapple

Lifehouse, Billy Joel, and Flogging Molly are my favorites.  I also love me some Within Temptation (a better version of Evanescence), but that's a little dark.

I Florence and the Machine too, Brie.

I just downloaded Sublime's greatest hits. Perfect summer music.

cut copy "Where I'm Going"

I'm seriously mad at myself for not shelling out the bucks to go to lollapalooza this past weekend.

Edit: Fav band of all time is Fleetwood Mac... sooo anything from them is good in my book.

AmoroAgain

Arcade Fire! DUH!

mandybear7

hahaha Jess- hide yo kids, hide yo wife

mandysmear

I haz lots of Arcade Fire already.  DUH!  Nice photoshopped picture Amoro. 

Um, Florence + the Machine is the best thing ever.  And I thank god that my husband has the job he has because without him working with a bunch of artist-like people who are always discovering new music we wouldn't have discovered Florence til about a month ago.  Makes my life complete.  Seriously.  It's been a long time since music has made me FEEL. 

Fleetwood is good.  I have a couple songs.  What are your fav fleetwood songs?

AmoroAgain

DAMMIT MANDY.  YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO TELL.  Besides, that's in Sweden, and I'm clearly in Switzerland.  Orrrr something like that.

Otherwise, you should check out Donkeyboy, but I don't know if they're on iTunes yet.  They're an awesome Norwegian band.

mandysmear

okay cool!  i'll see if i can pirate if i can't find it on itunes.  sometimes people share that crap early.  (that's how i got florence's album before it was released) 

you're not fooling anybody amoro, if that is in fact your real name.

mandybear7

little lies, you make loving fun, rhiannon, gypsy, monday morning

I just discovered a Fleetwood Mac power hour. I hadn't done a power hour since college and definitely am going to attempt this weekend when we have a get together of friends from college. I'm stoked.

mandysmear

thanks doll. 

more, more, more!  chances are i'll like it.  i have a very eclectic taste and collection.

mandysmear

Yeah, I fucking knew it.  I am smart like that.

AmoroAgain

This is their most "famous" song right now: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQQUJlJZp_Y

mandybear7

amoro, thank you for that link. I now like Donkeyboy.

Mandy, I'm also really into Metric, but I think you and I have mentioned that before?

Andrea_Lea

please to be adding this song to your ROAD TRIP REMIX:
Your Love Gets Sweeter Every Day by Finley Quaye
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8seN9XowpA

also, no mix tape is complete without some Journey and also, Hall and Oats.  YESH.

mandysmear

yeah i am in love with metric as well. 

for awhile there all you'd catch me listening to was metric and florence. 

those are the two best chick artists i can think of off the top of my head.  well them and tegan and sara.  they rock my socks too.

hall and oats eh?  don't have any.  please recommend a specific song.

i haz some journey.  oooh yeah!

mandybear7

badass girl drummer- kim from matt and kim.
weird girl band you have to be in the mood for- warpaint

whyyyy didn't I go to lollapalooza?? arghh
Well, I wasn't crazy about most of the headliners, it was the side bands I would have gone to see. The Strokes and Green Day headlining? What, is this 2002?

Andrea_Lea

well the killers have a song called Andy You're a Star, I was introduced to it today and I kinda dig it.

Also, for Hall & Oats, try some Private Eyes.  They're watching you ♫♫♫ or Rich Girl or You Make My Dreams

they are all beeboppy and fun

mandysmear

sweet, thanks ladies.

Bubbalub

MandyBear, how many women do you know who were almost named Rhiannon because of that song? :P Almost all of my girlfriends whose parents were "alternative". (So, basically, almost all the girls I met in art college and after, plus myself. Heh.)

Right now I'm really into hip hop so:

Flobots
Gym Class Heroes
Kid Cudi
Lupe Fiasco (LOVE)
Schwayze

Plus some classics:

Dean Martin: "Mambo Italiano"
Bill Withers: "Ain't No Sunshine"
