Now Playing...Hooverphonic

I'm crazy about this song. It's called "Mad About You", by Belgian pop/rock group Hooverphonic. The trippiness and dramatic organization of this song almost makes me feel like I'm in some surreal forbidden love story, and I want the whole world to know about it! The song is from 2000, but we definitely need some music like this in the mainstream. The video's a bit creepy, but that's just how I like it.





"Trouble is my middle name, but in the end I'm not too bad. Can someone tell me if it's wrong to be so mad about you?" If I thought it was anything less than cherry, I wouldn't suggest it.

Now Playing...Roisin Murphy

     Recently, I discovered an artist whose music I've heard for a long time, but only now have I given her a try. The result...I love it!! The Irish singer's name has become more familiar to the American public in recent months following a controversy including Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga has become a phenomenon thanks to her incredibly unique style and infectious pop songs. However, her orginality was doubted when the rare gem that is Roisin Murphy was uncovered and it turned out that Gaga might have been biting her style big time in side-by-side photo comparisons. While the styles are somewhat similar, I must say these two artists are quite different. Roisin has a sinister, quirky aesthetic that I absolutely love and this is one of my faves from her.






Unzip my body, take my heart out. Cause I need a beat to give this tune. So cherry.
