Jonathan Coulton - Code Monkey
Two things:
1) This song used to help me get through the day at my old job. As cheesy at it is, it’s nice to know there are other people that work office jobs that feel like they aren’t valued in any capacity.
2) Is not the acoustic version of this song, like, really goddamn good? Wow.
Coheed and Cambria - The Afterman (Acoustic)
This performance (and song) is fantastic - except for the douche bags that think it’s appropriate to scream at an acoustic set. I approached this album apprehensively, but I have been consistently blown away with each track. Any doubt I had for Coheed’s future has been annihilated.
Michael Kiwanuka - Worry Walks Beside Me
Well, my God, you are just perfect aren’t you?
Vacationer - Everyone Knows
A delightful combination of hip-hop, motown, and indie-pop that I did not think would appeal to me; this is music you should play if you want to feel great.
Coheed and Cambria - Mother Superior (Acoustic)
I won’t lie, I kind of lost my shit when I saw that they had recorded this acoustic set within the last three months. Outstanding. And it’s nice to see Josh Eppard back and loving on the Coheed sound so much.
Everest - Let Go
I’m pretty enthusiastic about this band right now. And hot damn is this a catchy song.
Thrice - Beggars (Acoustic)
A chill inducing performance from the front man of my favorite band of all time.
The Dear Hunter - What it Means to be Alone (Acoustic)
My favorite YouTube comment for this video:
“okay is it snowing or is his voice making glitter swirl around him?”
New York City by Punch Brothers
Such lovely musicians. Every one of these guys so hugely talented. This is exactly what I need this morning.
