And when I say I like a rap song, you’ll have to listen to it. It’s “Handlebars” by Flobots:
Watch the video, read the lyrics.
It’s not your usual “Yes We Can” bullshit coming from your usual “I Got It From My Mama” guys.
Remember: everything is less of what it is than what it suggests.

the guy who put his hands on you
has got nothing to do with me
and the bruises that you feel will heal
and i hope you come around
’cause we’re missing you.
This is amazing; I’ve never heard jazz with lyrics like this. Look below: did you think those were lyrics?
It’s poetic, and when you listen to Kurt Elling sing it, you can’t help but wonder just how he sang it, and what inspired him to write it. Brilliant. And there are literary and jazz references inside [...]
While songs are terrible teachers on the subject of love, they can be accurate descriptors of mood. Here I will do no more than to document my mood.
Journey into my mind. I’m betting that you’ve never heard any of these guys before.

Here’s Radiohead’s “All I Need”, track 5 from their latest album, In Rainbows. The music sounds like it came out of Fight Club’s soundtrack, the kind of music you’d listen to when you’re feeling—I could only think of this word—”dangerous”.
I’m the next act
waiting in the wings
I’m an animal
Trapped in your hot car
I am all the [...]

To my left they rose and leaf
To my right cross Seven Seas
Maybe maybe they’ll stay true
My seeds will cross and then take root
And leave you to an empty room
Lonely lonely that is you
Lonely lonely that is you
Paper paper obsolete
How will you reach out to me
I thought you’d ask me not [...]
This will crack you up!
Hello and welcome to the Mental Health Hotline!
If you are obsessive-compulsive, press ‘1′ repeatedly.

Knives Out has got to be one of my favourite songs by Radiohead. I just rediscovered when I got myself the Amnesiac album. Enjoy.
I swear, I am addicted to the first 27 seconds of this Radiohead piece.
It’s the best thing that you’ve ever had,
the best thing that you’ve ever, ever had.
It’s the best thing that you’ve ever had;
the best thing you have had has gone away.

Don’t leave me high, don’t leave [...]
Here are some movie soundtracks that will simply transform your mood and give you goosebumps as you listen to them. The effect is usually multiplied if you have watched the movies. So sit back on a nice chair, close your eyes, and absorb. Good speakers or headphones are mandatory.
