Earworm

(Technically Not An) Earworm: Mash ups. I’m impressed.

Just wanted to let you guys hear this tidbit I discovered whilst browsing the vast inter webs. Feel free to right click this link and listen to the sheer impressiveness.

Earworm: Peanut’s Theme – Vince Guiraldi

Tis’ the season right?  Since Thanksgiving has come and gone, it’s safe to start posting some Christmas type things, and to start off I’d like to present to you a timeless classic, the Peanut’s Theme.

I heard this while I was walking in at Starbucks, and I can’t stop humming it.  It’s such a soothing piece, and it more ways than one, calming.  We are in the home stretch, and hopefully, the Mayan’s are wrong, and we’ll see past December 12th.

Earworm: “I Would Do Anything For You” by Foster the People

Indie music. Fun, experimental sounds that grab your attention.

I’ve fallen in love (with indie music) and it’s better than before… and this is one of the songs that I recently discovered with Spotify.

Foster the People gained mainstream success in the past year with the song Pumped Up Kicks, but most of the people I know don’t even bother to look into the rest of a band’s music if they like the sound of one song.

Have a listen, bros! To me, it isn’t just an Earworm, but an eargasm as well. Let us know down in the comments section what you think of the song!

Earworm: Feel The Love – Rudimental Ft. John Newman

This song I first heard sometime ago when it first came out before it got popular.  Then I saw the video.  If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s odd to say the least.  It’s an actual community in Philadelphia that has horses.

Enjoy.

Earworm: “Child of the Rain” by The Omen (prod. by JDiablo)

I’m sorry, for all you people that love our blog and especially look forward to my posts, even moreso, my Earworms. (Although The Big Cheese’s posts are fun to check out, so yes, check those out.)

Today’s Earworm is a little gem that I found on the ever-so-dreaded Tumblr. Tumblr is a very dark place. I hate it so, but I love using it for cool pictures and fun posts. Anyway.

The song is called Child of the Rain. It’s an underground rap track.

Like I always say, guys. My music library expands constantly. Every single day my tastes change.

The beat is nice and smooth, the lyrics are very fluid. It’s on repeat right now.

Go on. Have a listen. (CAUTION. EXPLICIT LYRICS. Also, in no way do The Big Cheese and I promote the lifestyle that may or may not be represented in the song. Enjoy life cautiously.)

Earworm: Die Young – Ke$ha

It’s been a while since I posted an earworm, and I don’t know why, to break my earworm hiatus, I pick Ke$ha.  I guess it’s just been stuck in my head for a while for unknown reasons.  I’m not a big fan of hers, but it seems like I like her songs enough to actually listen to them.  It’s a nice mainstream beat, so…..

Earworm: “Powerless” by Linkin Park

Oh, the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. You’ve left many people, including the Big Cheese, powerless. In fact, I only got my power back today. So yes, our dear dedicated followers, the apologies for not really posting anything palatable in the last few days. Anyway.

Today’s Earworm will be my second LP ‘worm. It’s a good song, really. Off their new album Living Things.

Although the song’s meaning has nothing to do with electrical problems, the title of the song pretty much sums up what’s going on to most of the north east that has been affected by the dreaded super-storm, no matter how long the power had been out. I for one lost power for about 3 days. The Big Cheese has had no power for 4 days and counting. Everyone hope he’s safe, because he and I just want to get back to playing Resident Evil 6. (Little hint there, take note that you should expect a “Game Corner” from us soon.)

 

Earworm: “Paradise” by Coldplay

A really good mix of electronic beats with Chris Martin’s soothing Brit-rock voice. Can’t be beaten.

It’s been played to death by the radio, but it still has a place in my music library. I still love this song. Damn.

Some special meaning behind this post, as well. I’m posting this about 4 days after the 1st anniversary of the release of this amazing song.

Earworm: “Sk8er Boi” by Avril Lavigne

My English teacher is the best. THE ABSOLUTE BEST. I wish more of my teachers were like her. She’s a child inside. And she sings songs. And she characterized me by singing this song. Good Lord help me.

Two things about the music video.

a) There’s a BMX theme.

b) Why would a police helicopter come to stop an impromptu concert? Oh wait, Avril is Canadian. No wonder.
