Musings: What’s Stuck In Your Head?

Posted by Shaun Harvey on March 20th, 2008 9 Comments

Let’s face it.  We’re all really music nerds, music lovers, or a pleasant combination of both.  Unfortunately there’s so much music out there you can’t possibly keep up with it all.  That’s one of the reasons we’ve created this little slice of cyberspace:  To give the Charlottesville community a place to share, listen, and enjoy music.

Which leads me to this:  What song/artist/album is currently bouncing pleasantly around your noggin?  What new tune have you recently discovered that you just can’t get enough of?  Who should we check out?  I’m curious.

Here’s my latest personal discovery.  I just came across this yesterday.  Maybe I’m way behind, but it’s all new to me.

    The song from the new batch of Volvo commercials. I’m hearing so much good music on commercials lately. Sigh….

    Anyway, the band is Melpo Mene, of course they’re on myspace, and the song is I Adore You.

    They played at Millers a short time ago didn’t they? Perhaps it was January. I liked their stuff on myspace and I wanted to go but I didn’t make it. Lately I’ve had a couple YouTube gems on repeat when I need ‘em:

    Dead Boys covering ‘Search and Destroy’

    i’m still delighting in things i picked out for christmas: namely, LCD soundsystem, simian mobile disco, and holy fuck. i’m also kind of on a huge progressive house bender - yes, i am stuck in 2001…
