I really like St. Lucia-Before the Dive that came out this week. Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmsyXRw3KuI
I like Ben Howard’s cover of it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Men2J9uebI
I’m really getting into Eugene McGuinness’s music lately. Great video too.
I have a soft spot for animated videos. Bombay Bicycle Club just put out a pretty cool one:

Charlie Winston and Medi have a great little cover of Black Keys-Lonely Boy that came out this week.

My favorite is Dog is Dead-Christmas Wrapping (The Waitresses Cover) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W24fqkwOSzg Free download from their website dogisdead.co.uk
This is a good one that came out last week too. Rich Aucoin-It http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkuWgXhzxg4&feature=player_embedded How many movie references can you catch in it?
Here’s two I enjoyed this week: Little Tybee- Boxcar Fair (awesome puppets) http://vimeo.com/32183353 and Ben Howard- Only Love (surprise flash mob) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-g0Uvt61Ow&feature=youtu.be
I keep hoping that people will eventually catch on to the amazing Gotye album, Making Mirrors. HUGE in Australia for good reason.
If you’re going to put Ed Sheeran at #27, then Ben Howard-Every Kingdom should have been pretty much near the top. Somewhat comparable styles of music but the quality of Ben Howard and Every Kingdom goes way beyond.
My favorite video of the week: Hollerado- Good Day at the Races http://youtu.be/nvhFeAXq7GA
I love that song! I think people are starting to catch on to it.
This song’s got me dancing lately: http://youtu.be/NI9EmaruT0s Hit #7 in UK charts a week ago. Crazy-fun video too.
“Old Pine” by Ben Howard is becoming my favorite Indie Song of the Summer 2011. Very fitting lyrics for reminiscing about past summers. It starts out mellow but then kicks it up a few notches toward the end. Check out the gorgeous video of this stunning song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzzCthKw_C0
People should check out Ben Howard. Great songs for summer. Soon will not be independent as he has been signed with Island.
My favorite so far is An Awesome Wave by alt-J Have a listen here: http://soundcloud.com/alt-j/sets/an-awesome-wave/
