What do you listen to?

Marina and the Diamonds!


This is like the perfect pop song for me. It's super catchy, makes me feel like dancing, that deep voice she does is sexy and I just love how over the top everything is.


Arwen, yeah Arwen, you I'll ruin, I've been doing things I shouldn't do~~ Well not really, but that's what I keep hearing :)


TV taught me how to feel, now real life has no appeal :)

Some more Iiris that I can't stop listening to:



And finally this:

RATATAA!

Guess I'm in a party kind of mood today! Too bad it's a Tuesday...

I have this special talent where I can make drunk posts without actually being drunk. It's...well, it's entirely useless.

Here's an actual Canadian artist to make up for it, though.

I'm no music nerd, I just really like this song.

JamishT was a heck of a guy,
With a devilish twinkle in his eye.
With his hand-picked flowers,
And his feel-good powers,
He made all the girls blush and sigh.

We talked about the new Carly Rae Jepsen album a while back. Well I stole her album (since it doesn't come out until August... except in Japan, where it came out a month ago... yeah, I don't understand that either) and have been listening to it on repeat ever since. 12 tracks of pop perfection (presumably more if you get the deluxe edition, which I didn't bother with since I prefer my albums short where possible).



The more pop I listen to from this decade, the more convinced I become that it's the best decade for pop since the 80s. Not to say there isn't plenty of shit - there always is. What matters is the frequency of good stuff to balance it out and we have a lot of it right now IMHO. And I'm glad pop has finally embraced the album again - the 2000s had so many good singles but so little else...

EDIT: Fixed the link. Was to a broken vid at first!

I like SOME pop music (contrary to what is believed on IRC). But how the hell did no one think to mention power pop?

More Carly Rae, because I'm addicted to this album at the minute.



I like this video even more than the Tom Hanks one.

I remember this song and I still love it.

Just Jack - Stars In Their Eyes



And I don't care if she's a poor lyricist or annoying, because this is awesome.

Katy Perry - Dark Horse



And last but not least.

The Veronicas - You Ruin Me

I don't really know if this is pop or hip hop, it's good though.

Azealia Banks is super talented. She'd be more popular, only she keeps mouthing off on basically everyone else in the world and so sabotaging her own chances of success.

Justin Bieber sucks. And not only because he fails to sing in a Shakesperean voice but because he's baaaad. (in the sound of a sheep).
