St. Vincent on Conan O'Brien

If you've seen Elvis Costello's performance on SNL from the 70's, you'll know why this is funny.

The Neverending Beginning Holiday Complilation

There are a lot of pretty holiday songs on this compilation. They give you the option of downloading the songs free-of-charge or with a donation.

Listen to Chimes of Freedom, the new compilation from Amnesty Internation

I get really annoyed when I have to "like" something on Facebook, or subscribe to an email list to hear something. Normally I don't. But dang it - you can hear all 70 + Dylan cover songs on Amnesty International's Chimes of Freedom compilation, if you like Amnesty International USA on Facebook. Whatevs - I'll do it. I like Amnesty International.

Sharon Van Etten, "Serpents"

Sharon Van Etten, "Serpents" (MP3 thanks to her label)

I posted Sharon Van Etten's song "One Day" from her album Epic a few years ago. That song became a part of my daily life. It was in my heavy-rotation playlist on my iPod, and I would find myself singing it both in my head and out loud. I related to it, even though I don't have a sister.

I think if you buy the album you get the picture that shows her face

Heartless Bastards, "Parted Ways"

I've loved Heartless Bastards for as long as I've written this blog. I know that because I remember being in my workplace 4 or 5 years ago and incessantly singing their songs. So I have a new song to incessantly sing. And more people to annoy with my incessant singing and always alliterating.
