Bon Iver (YET AGAIN!) with "Skinny Love" live. This is awesome...
Please go watch Sera Cahoone's (MySpace) Tiny Desk Concert (about 20 minutes of video). She is really talented. I very much enjoyed her first album. From her first album...
Vampire Weekend is good stuff. I've really enjoyed their album. My favorite song, without a doubt, is "Oxford Comma." It's intelligent, literary and playful (oh, did you see what I did there??!!). I've been trying to find a bleeped out version for the blog for the choice word they use, but I can't find one. Here are three unbleeped versions of "Oxford Comma." First, the official video which at least appears to be one take. Second, a good quality live version. Third, an A cappella college group covering it. Enjoy!
That Bon Iver video just blew me away. That was incredible.
