Yo La Tengo - 'Summer Sun'

One of the three CDs I bought today (the other two being Mogwai's 'Earth Division EP' and Sparklehorse / Fennesz's collaboration for Konkurrent's 'In The Fishtank' series).

Turisas - Rasputin
Blame my brother for suggesting going to a concert with among others Turisas in two weeks and me thinking my brother's taste in music is awesome.

Finnish, aren't they?

Anyways, I'm listening to The Scarlet Furies - To Forgive & To Forget (David's Theme from Gray Matter)

The more I listen to The Scarlet Furies, the more addicted I become. First time I heard that song in Jane Jensen's blog I thought "well, it's quite alright", now I tend to always listen to them when I'm on the computer (not all the time, but on almost every occasion).

Yep, they are Finnish. Did the name give it away, or do you know them?

I think I've heard of them on quite a few occasions. I suppose if they've gone abroad they've made enough of an impact here too. Of course the genre of music always makes me pass on any more in-depth looking into so that's why I wasn't sure (I just see headlines or whatever (usually on the internet) and move on)

And of course the name has quite a Finnish sound to it.

And since you went listening to them

Home - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros

I freakin' love this song. Slowly, but surely risen to the most played song in iTunes for me. (Surrounded by Johnny Cash tracks that couldn't be more different. ) Kind of reminds me of The Polyphonic Spree too.

Cream - Sunshine of Your Love

Currently learning this on guitar, which is pretty easy. Hopefully it'll sound better on my new one soon!

Candle in the Wind - Elton John

I've always loved this song. So much atmosphere. Takes you back to another time.

^ You really can't live without this thread dude.

Well,
The Smiths - Some girls are bigger than others,
Talking Heads - Psycho Killer and
William Shatner's rendition of Sinatra's "It Was a Good Year"

Yup, LDS-ridden tunes seem to be my thing now

Chris Cornell - Thank You

One of the very few Led Zeppelin covers that exceeds the original.
I failed at my attempts to get this as the opening song at my wedding, though...

Astor Piazzolla - Oblivion (by Gidon Kremer)

I've heard a few versions, and while this might not be my favorite, it's certainly one of the best. (Even though it's really different, I really like Al DiMeola's version, and ZUM has a great one too)

Just trying to keep it going, bro Plus, often there are songs that I like to share... Like the one above!

Recommending Piazzolla without mentioning Adios Nonino is considered a crime in some parts of the world, you know that right?

Sure, well, I couldn't just start listing all great Piazzolla songs, now, could I? (Oh, and by ZUM I meant the band ZUM, not the piece (not that the sentence would've made any sense))

Yes, Adiós Nonino is a great one (of course, all of them are), also Revirado, Escualo, Libertango, Michelangelo 70... One could just go on and on
