I'm getting into Todd Rundgren..... actually that's a bit of an understatement as i'm already well and truly besotted with him. One of those rare, wonderful times when you fall in love with an artist instantly. This song makes every hair on my body stand on end. It's magnificent.

Trying to find out more about Elnur Huseynov, I discovered a video in which he sings Habanera from George Bizet´s Carmen. I am not sure if I like it (it actually reminds me of ESC 2013 Romanian gay Dracula), but I must admit that I listened to it about 10 times today. :)

i love korean pop and funny as it is : it's often made by scandinavian or american producers.
So sometimes i think "and if it was an ESC entry ?" and for this one, it would win by a landslide imo (and it's only 3min haha)

I am currently obsessed with this video in which some tourist captured three amazing Prague street musicians. I wish i´d known who they are and where to find more.

This almost makes me cry but I manage to hold it in with a scrunched up facexcry1 It really gets to me, how it builds to around the three minute mark with those pained whistles/cries (I can't work out what they are), they're killing me. I'm cold the whole way through the song. Most poignant thing i've heard in ages. It's going to be an amazing couple of weeks for me with the wonderfully trippy Jackson Scott releasing a new record next week, then Mikal Cronin the following week.

xheat My favourite artist (alive) a few days ago released her first song in over two years, a cover of an Omar Souleyman song. Covering a Syrian wedding singers music wasn't exactly the next step I was expecting Soap&Skin to take but I love it.

I'm hooked on this song. Everytime I listen to it, I'm reminded of myself wandering in the streets of Dublin in winter. :oops: I love the atmosphere created by the melody and the voice of the guy is just magnetic to me.

Well I am pretty obsessed with Taylor Swift's Style. I usually have the radio on quietly in my room and usually it's just mindless annoying radio garbage that I don't pay attention to... and then Style comes on and I get excited and turn it up. I am not and have never really been a huge fan of her music, but that song is just... It's my ideal pop song. 80's-style synth-pop (also all kinds of retro-sounding music like Saint Motel - My Type) is my freaking jam, there's nothing I love more. Plus there just is something in that song that takes my breath away and makes me very nostalgic and feel like it's a hot starry summer night or something like that. I usually get very tired of songs that are on the radio very quickly.. but right now I wish they never stopped playing this one and that hasn't happened in a long freaking time. But well, just throw me any 80's inspired pop song and I'll just simply ADORE it. Architecture In Helsinki is also a huge favourite band of mine and they just ooze this sort of "modern 80s" sound and synth pop. It just sounds so good to me that I sometimes can't even comprehend how some people can not love it.

Lisa Hannigan's album "Passenger" is really great, you should give it a try :) but "O Sleep" is certainly my favourite song on it.

I'm getting into Dessa at the moment. I generally really don't like most rap music I hear, but i'm loving absolutely everything i've heard so far of hers. It's brilliant stuff and she really is one heck of a wordsmith. She has a great singing voice as well, incidentally my favourite song "Skeleton Key" she only really sings on it.

@revallay that's why I said "generally". Of course I love Miss Chiffxlovexheat

I actually discovered Dessa through an interview with Miss Chiff where she was singing the girl praises, so I thought i'd check her out, and now i'm hooked. Such classy rap.
