The songs I can't stop listening to 6/7/13

1. Little Joy - "Unattainable"
2. Cale Parks - "Age Of Reform"
3. Elastica - "Vaseline"
4. The Strokes - "Take It Or Leave It"
5. Green Day - "King For A Day"
6. The Drums - "Don't Be A Jerk, Jonny"
7. Cold War Kids - "Bullies Always Win"
8. Throwing Muses - "Sunray Venus"
9. BOY - "Railway"
10. Grizzly Bear - "Yellow House"

Best songs in the mix: Throwing Muses, BOY, Grizzly Bear, The Drums, Cale Parks, Little Joy...hell, these are all good.

Only when the goal is unattainable
do I start to feel like I'm losing myself
and this deep secret
that hasn't come out yet
is buried down deep with the rest

Cale Parks' music is preternaturally beautiful.

Elastica, because why not?

Oh, he's gonna let you down...

Kind of a revolutionary song about being gender non-conforming:

you used to be so pretty
now you're just tragic
believe in something
you're full of horseshit

I truly can't decide whether or not I like Cold War Kids. There's something about them, but I just don't know. I keep giving them chances, though. This song is really well done, though:

Open your mouth, you're blessed for the moment
Kisses all around
Sunray venus, crushed underfoot
and kisses all around

You're in my head
Only in my head
I'm waving goodbye
Only in my mind

Glass of gin and a folding chair.
Sifting out by the wading pool, chlorine blue.
Rush of wind passing over me.
Restless nights.
Chin up, cheer up.
My love's another kind.
