Day 1: My favourite song

If you know me, you know I find it hard to choose favourites. But I'm going to try.

There's one song I can listen to over and over and over again and still love, so perhaps that's my current favorite. It's "Nineteen" by Tegan and Sara. I love them, I love their atypical voices and alternative style. Their songs are so simple but so infectious.


This acoustic version is a bit different than the one I have but you can see how awesome they are here.

Jeff and I have also been really obsessed with Laura Veirs lately. Here's the video for "Cast a Hook in Me" which I've been humming almost constantly.



One last song to make note of is "The Taste of Ink" by The Used. It has been one of my favourites for a long time and is the inspiration for my blog title. Despite no longer really being into screamo or whatnot in general, I still love The Used.

What I'm Listening to Now: Tegan and Sara

Jeff got me into Tegan and Sara (as he has gotten me into many other great things) recently. They're sisters, and they make fabulous music. It's kind of indie pop/folk, and it's breathtaking. Also they're Canadian, in case you wanted to know. Now the music:

Speak Slow, which is a pretty cool song.

Here's a live video for Take Me Anywhere, which I really love.

I just love their voices and their writing, and the way that most of the songs are so understated since the music is so simple. Beautiful! Now, go forth and find ye more!
