#138; like a lovesick crackhead
My current musical obsessions are all over the place, and in an attempt to make sense of them, I’d love your thoughts! Yup, it’s a Listening in Limbo post, which I haven’t made since… January… So let me know – what are you obsessed with? Flashback retro? Blues? Justin Bieber? I’m admitting my guilty pleasures here, so you be sure to, too!
1. Ke$ha; Your Love is My Drug – When I’m on the road, there is nothing like this song, I really don’t know why. The video is completely cracked-out (forgive the pun), but the song itself is catchy, tells a fun story, and gets you belting along while you’re zooming down the highway in the beating sun.
Check out more beneath the cut, with the youtube music videos to go with it!
2. Usher; OMG – Perhaps it’s the club environment and the talented DJs I’m spending so much of my time with lately, but there is nothing like a good beat hitting you and just going with it. This song is a popular, fun, versatile example of that and so I can’t get enough!
3. Augustana; Boston – I found this band thanks to last.fm and their song “Fire” – I cannot express my love for them enough. My selections over the last two months (especially with my melancholy mood thanks to the move & the upheaval) has been built almost exclusively of Dan Layus’s heartwrecking voice.




As if the Ke$ha video wasn’t ridiculous enough, there’s this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLaHWJ3LKss
