Louis Armstrong - You'll Never Walk Alone
alex on February 27 2012
No one can tug at my heart strings like my old buddy Louis. The first CD I ever owned was a Louis Armstrong's greatest hits album from the bargain bin in a Kemp Mill music store, my mom told me to pick whatever I wanted and I just grabbed what felt right. An old black guy with a horn in his hand was apparently very appealing to me - little did I know I would listen to that CD for the next 6 months on repeat. Sometimes you gotta take chances without dwelling on what the outcome could be. Thanks for all the good times Louis, there isn't a day that goes by that I dont think about the impact you've had on my life. Through out my whole life I've tried to chase those feelings I got from listening to that CD for the first time and I've still yet to this day feel it. This is probably one of the reasons I so actively seek out new amazing music, trying to catch a glimpse of something I know I'm probably never going to find again. So we can all thank Louis for my humble music selections reaching tens of thousands of people every week.
Meligrove Band - Isle of Yew

The ol' Isle of Yew... for some reason when I was younger I used to not understand how to say isle or island, i always pronounced that fucking S. Now that I'm 28 with a good bit of reading and speaking experience, who in the fuck decided it was ok to include the silent S bullshit in the English language? I mean I'm not seeing ANY other words that are using that, some jackass was like "yep, thats the ticket, silent S.. in two english words. i'm brilliant." Speaking of when I was younger, you know when you were 6 and you used to mouth the words "elephant you," to make someone think you're saying i love you? and they're all like "ew gross thats cootie material." and you're all like "nah, christie gave me that circle dot dot treatment not even 5 minutes ago." ...Then you both giggled and finished eating your fruit by the foot.
Bright Moments - Tourists

I dont think I've ever posted a band twice in a row like this, just goes to show how undeniably amazing I think these dudes are. In other news: I just looked at my phone to check the time and the clock went from 4:18 to 4:17, I really hope that happens more often.
