Music finds...

I've been expending nervous energy by finding some cool music, so I thought I'd share. :)

Recently discovered from a post at two peas, pandora how cool is this site? You pick songs for your own online radio station and can listen to the songs you picked streaming from your computer. I love this! You can put in the type of music you like, a song title or artist and it will pull entire playlists together for your personalized "station". You can also approve or veto each song. A very cool concept!

Next on the list is Ingrid Michaelson. A really cool sound! Love her! For those who watch Grey's Anatomy (sorry, I don't-- gasp! I have never even seen ER--lol), you will recognize her stuff from the show as I have heard.

And, lastly... the find I love the most... Forever Thursday. I REALLY wanted to put the song, How Can it Be on here-- but alas, I could only get it from itunes. I did for my own listening, so if you want it, too, that's where you can find it. You might recognize the song from the new JC Penney commercial. The singer is actually Melanie Horsnell, I have discovered. She's an Aussie-- hope her stuff makes it to the states soon-- she has such a cool Beatles meets Six Pence None the Richer sound... love, love, love it...

So... here's a Six Pence video just for fun. :)



And one more-- this one really is lastly... for my dh actually... you need to check out his online radio station... he's the playlist man / music specialist, etc. :)

That's it for now... time for lunch. :)
