LIQUID DREAMS | O-TOWN COVER BY DREAMZ (by gunnarolla)

So funny! 

REMEMBER O-TOWN?!

I am so ready to rock out to this at VidCon.

Arkells & Jian Ghomeshi perform “Psycho Killer” on Q

Bow and Arrow / A Memory’s Lament - Reuben and the Dark

I saw these guys last summer at the Calgary Folk Fest and they’ve been sitting on my “music to find” list ever since. I think it’s time to go find their music…

Lord I Just Can’t Keep From Cryin’ - The Barr Brothers

My “washing the dishes” music for today.

Brian Wilson covers “Brian Wilson”

I did quite a bit of traveling last summer. You may have missed it. I’m terrible at documenting my travels.

One evening in July those travels took me to Amsterdam with Lidewij, Sanne, and James*. Most of this trip was a blur, so I am grateful Sanne captured some footage to bring me back to this moment. I do remember being very excited by this big gathering of people dancing in the street. I think there was a dancing dog at the centre of it? We stopped and watched for a while, but something about being around Lidewij just makes you want to drop everything and dance**. So we did.

There is nothing quite like just letting go and dancing on the street in a foreign city with friends you only get to hug once a year.

New Music Sunday

Sundays are made for new music. At least, in my world they are. Nothing better than sitting down with a cup of tea on a quiet Sunday and finding some new tunes to get me through the coming week.

This Sunday is all about Christmas albums. I’ve become addicted to tracking down Christmas music that I actually like. Turns out, my friends and favourite artists actually make that task fairly easy. Here are a few of the albums I’ll be treating myself to this week:

(Click through to download. Most are available on bandcamp. All are reasonably priced. Some are free. A few support excellent causes.)

I’d love to hear your recommendations - anything I’m missing out on?

“Kids Are Stupid”

Thank you Mike Falzone for saying all the things I’m not allowed to say. ;)

Let’s all go to Finland for Christmas.

Lights Out: Journey through every Harry Potter movie in 13 minutes.

See Dumbledore change actors, Neville become hot, and so, so much more. You might cry.

I need to plan a Potter marathon and rewatch all of these.

The ducks! They’re so happy!
