Most have already heard his song "Somebody That I Used to Know" 

either from the radio or the Glee Version: 

Original Version:

But I have to say that his whole "Making Mirrors" album is awesome especially this song:

Today's Music Thursday is not so much a band or album, but 1 song. There is something about Calvin Harris -Feel So Close track that has him on repeat at the moment, maybe its his voice, but all I know is that I like it! Take a listen:

Fashionista At Any Age

Loving this trailer for Advanced Style.

The documentary is based off the Advanced Style Blog, which I find 

just fascinating and very inspiring. The blog is a must to check out, because 

there are loads of interviews and photographs of fashionistas.

Put A Bird On It

PORTLANDIA

{A IFC Original short-based comedy series}

Came across this video clip on Hue and Hum,

had a giggle and thought that I should share. 

Take a look & maybe you'll have a giggle too.

Doctor...

WHO!

I've been addicted to watching Doctor Who for the past 2 months,

(my family really doesn't approve of this recent addiction) 

so I blame it on Netflix for making it an instant watch.

Anyways the other night the episode was on Vincent Van Gogh & it

reminded me of when I went to see the

 "Impressionist & Post-Impressionist"

 Exhibit @MFAH this past February.

I really wished I had gone back another

time before it closed.

I really can not put it into words how

AWESOMELY AWESOME

it was, because it was way beyond awesome.

If you had the chance to see it you

know exactly what I am talking about.

{picture taken right before it was took down at the Galleria}

There really was no point to the of post besides that

 Doctor Who reminded me of the Exhibit, 

& that Van Gogh is just awesome

but who doesn't know that already!

Anyways I will leave you with

The Greatest Man That Ever Lived!

Your Turntable's Not Dead

{photo source} 

For a while now I've been addicted to listening to nothing but vinyls when I'm at home.

{Crosley Turntable}

Above is the Turntable I currently have.

I really do prefer vinyls over listening to CD's, the Radio, 

and my iPod. If only I could carry it around, but I know it 

will a bit difficult to take it everywhere with me, especially when I go 

running so I guess only while I'm in my room will have to do.

I have a small collection going thanks to my dad and 

I've purchased a few of my own to add to it.

A couple weeks back I finally went to Cactus Music

to use my coupon & found exactly what I wanted.

Wilco's Sky Blue Sky Album

Also this past Sunday I stop by Waterloo Records while I was in Austin,

bought Weezer's Red Album 

Weezer non-stop lately.

Around the same time last year I went on a cruise

But I finally went this year &

Thursday Playlist/ The Explosions in the Sky

Happy MUSIC Thursday! I've started running and going bike riding for the past two weeks. For me I can't just listen to anything when I run or bike ride, so I went through all my music and finally made my decision. It was hard because there is so much to choose from but here it is enjoy!

Foster the People - Pumped Up Kicks

The Airborne Toxic Event - Does This Mean You're Moving On?

Last but not least, The Explosions in the Sky, they are coming out with their next album, "Take Care, Take Care, Take Care". Click here to download their new single, "Trembling Hands". Album comes out April 26, 2011, very excited.

Music Thursday

I don't know about you guys, but MUSIC is a big part of my day. It helps me get through a work day, a drive home in traffic, and sometimes helps me sleep, so here it goes on every Thursday on my blog it is going to be MUSIC THURSDAYS. Here are four songs that I have been addicted to for a couple of days now. Take a listen & I hope you enjoy them.

#1 Wilco-Impossible Germany

#2 Bibio-Lovers' carving

#3 Modest Mouse-The World at Large

#4 Ben Folds-You Don't Know Me(ft. Regina Spektor)

I'm Team Coco

Conan O'Brien always makes me laugh.
