The-Dream - Fancy

When most people create a drum loop as interesting as The Dream does "Fancy" they have no qualms about beating it into the ground. Not The Dream, he throws it out during the last 30 seconds like it's not big deal. He's probably right, the song has more than enough going for it even though it's primarily a minimalist ballad. I'm nowhere near knowledgeable about modern r&b to make this statement, but I'll make it anyway, I sincerely doubt there's been a better r&b song released in 2009.

Bonnie "Prince" Billy - Madeleine-Mary

Sometimes I'll feel like writing a bunch a words about a song. Sometimes I'll just post the song and say nothing about it. Guess which one this is.


Bonnie "Prince" Billy - Madeleine-Mary

Crocodiles - Soft Skull (In My Room)

One complaint that gets tossed around about this band is that they sound too much like the Jesus and Mary Chain. Whatever, the world needs more bands that sound that awesome.

Anyway, here's the song.

Constantines - Soon Enough

This is easily the Constantines best song. I really don't understand why they're not insanely popular, they're such a great band.

Constantines - Soon Enough

Cass McCombs - You Saved My Life

This is a really sweet song. I don't really feel like saying much more about it.

Raekwon - Canal Street

This is probably my favorite song from Only Built 4 Cuban Linx Part II.

Since EMI Records are being a bunch of whiny ass fuck-faces I'm just posting the youtube video of the song now.

Fleetwood Mac - Dreams

This song is super rad! In fact, it's probably the raddest song on Rumours.
