My recent obsession

Been obsessing over Rilo Kiley alot recently.
Can't... stop... listening.
They are just so fucking awesome.
And absolutely NOBODY I know listens to them,
So I'm like a pariah.
I have to go into the corner and listen to them quietly,
while everyone else listens to their "good" music.
Kanye West, 50 Cent, Black Eyed Peas, Alicia Keys.
You know, the classics.

So, to appease me, and only me, I present my favorite Rilo Kiley tunes.
In no particular order.

Ripchord


Bulletproof


My Slumbering Heart (with false start)


More Adventurous

A chick playing the harmonica? Yes please!

It's A Hit



I could totally keep going on and on and on and on and on and on...

OK. One more.

I Never



Like I said, I could keep on going. Forever maybe. I have a huuuuuuuge crush on Jenny Lewis, the lead singer. And just hearing her voice is equivalent to 10 shots of rum (which, I am proud to say, I have successfully avoided for over a month now. Yay me! Back on the wagon!).

All I'm saying is, Jenny, I want to carry your babies. We can work out the logistics of it later.

sweet! a convert! i have to say, it's great workout music. i put it on, and just run. and run. and run. download some and tell me how you like it.

you'll appreciate this probably. you most likely know at least two members of the band already. the lead singer is a girl named jenny lewis. she is the redhead little girl in the movie Troop Beverly Hills (Don't tell me you never saw it. with shelley long.). and the other may be a stretch, but do you remember the show Salute Your Shorts on nickelodeon back in the day? well the lead guitarist, blake sennet, played Pinsky, the mousy little guy, basically the star of the show. other than Ug, of course.

oh, Ug. so dumb. yet... so, so dumb.

Wow. I'm calling Nerd-Alert! on me for remembering salute your shorts.
