Tuesday Tunes: “Clarity” - Zedd

I found this song by looking through Vimeo’s music videos, and I’ve got to say Zedd is one of my new favorites. The music makes me move and I like the lyrics a lot, two of the three prerequisites I have for adding any musicians to my music library. This track in particular has some meaningful lyrics such as:

You are the piece of me
I wish I didn’t need
Chasing relentlessly
Still fight and I don’t know why

And then the chorus:

If our love is tragedy why are you my remedy?
If our love’s insanity why are you my clarity?

Yeah, I know.

Tuesday Tunes: “Shake It Out” - Florence + The Machine

My life has taken so many turns as of late that it doesn’t resemble what it was merely a year ago. Sometimes I think too much about it, waiting for the house of cards to fall. Then I realize it’s not worth my time to let those thoughts in. Instead, I crank some music, dance, and with any luck, go back to being awesome.

It’s hard to dance with a devil on your back

Tuesday Tunes: “Fresh Feeling” - Eels

You don’t have a clue
What it is like to be next to you

Tuesday Tunes: “Lonely Boy” - The Black Keys

Liking someone who is in a relationship sucks. But, wanting a piece of cake that doesn’t exist is even worse. I want cake, and that has nothing to do with this song.

Tuesday Tunes: “We Are Sex Bob-Omb” - Sex Bob-Omb

It’s just one of those days where Scott Pilgrim is a comfort.

“One, Two, Three, Four!”

Tuesday Tunes: “Rocket Man” - Elton John

This is my astrophysics theme song.

All the science I don’t understand
It’s just my job five days a week

Tuesday Wednesday Tunes: “Stereo Hearts (feat. Adam Levine)” - Gym Class Heroes

Yeah, that about sums up the situation.

Make me your radio. Turn me up when you feel low.

Tuesday Tunes: “O Tannenbaum” - Vince Guaraldi Trio

I don’t care that it’s not Christmas yet or that it’s almost Halloween. I love me some sweet jazz, especially from A Charlie Brown Christmas. Deal with it.

Tuesday Tunes: “Sweet Disposition” - The Temper Trap

I love the drums in this song, and the song in general. It’s the kind of song I imagine listening to while cruising down the road with the window down and the sun beaming through the trees. Curse you JGL and (500) Days of Summer.

Won’t stop to surrender

Tuesday Tunes: “Pinch Me” - Barenaked Ladies

We all have those moments where we wish what was happening was a part of some dream. That we could just wake up and things could be back to the normal we remember, but that’s usually not the case. When that happens, I like to turn on some tunes, sing along,  and try to figure out what all of this is for.

I just made you say “underwear”
