Lisa Mitchell has been the soundtrack to my last summer days at home. I'm obsessed with her voice. I really, truly am. It is just so soft and effortless and original. AND she covers one of my favourite songs ever; Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits. Unfortunately I can't embed this one, so follow the link if you would like her to melt your pretty little heart. I promise you she will.

GLISTENING PLEASURE
Okay so I've been meaning to post about this band- Natalie Portman's Shaved Head - for a while. A bff of mine randomly discovered them when she was galavanting in Lyon France this summer (lucky lady, I know). She listened to a track of theirs on her totally cool swedish friend's (Sigrid) ipod and from that point on, their album Glistening Pleasure, became the soundtrack to her time in French paradise.
In a nutshell, it's a super hipster teenager bundled up into an incredibly catchy band with hilarious, sexually charged lyrics- singing about all the important stuff in life like: slow motion tag teams, beard maintenance, sideways ponytails and "hitting the night like a SLAP IN THE FACE." These kids know how to party.
Anyway if you want fun dance music, I could not possibly offer a better suggestion. Definitely a crowd pleaser.
So, thank you Mackenzie.
But especially thank you Sigrid.
Watch the music video for "sophisticated side ponytail" below for a little taste.

Dear Karen,
If you’re reading this, then it means I actually worked up the courage to mail it. So, good for me. You don’t know me very well, but if you get me started I have a tendency to go on and on about how hard the writing is for me. But this, this is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to write. There is no easy way to say this so, I’ll just say it. I met someone... It was an accident. I wasn’t looking for it. It wasn’t in the make. It was the perfect storm. She said one thing and I said another. Next thing I knew, I wanted to spend the rest of my life in the middle of that conversation. Now, there’s this feeling in my gut... She might be the one... She’s completely nuts in a way that makes me smile, highly neurotic. A great deal of maintenance required. She is you, Karen. That’s the good news. The bad is that I don’t know how to be with you right now, and it scares the shit out of me. Because if I am not with you right now, I have this feeling that we’ll get lost out there... It’s a big bad world full of twists and turns, and people have a way of blinking and missing the moment; the moment that could have changed everything. I don’t know what’s going on with us, and I can’t tell you why you should trust a leap of faith on the likes of me, but damn you smell good. Like home... like Christmas. And you make excellent coffee. That’s gotta count for something, right? Call me.
Unfaithfully yours,
Hank Moody
