As 2010 comes to a close, I think it’s normal to get a little nostalgic about the passing year while feeling the anticipation of what the coming year may bring. And so, with this in mind, dear friends, I invite you to share in my New Years play list…
Band of Horses – Life on Earth: This simple little diddy suggests just enough to get those contemplative juices a flowin’. Little emo, little transient, lotsa time up there in your noggin with just you.
Michael Franti & Spearhead – Say Hey (I Love You): Snap out of it! After all, you’ve got an hour before your $150 NYE golden ticket gets you a free pass to booze and more booze. Enjoy the moment; it may be your very last chance of 2010 to have “you” time, so relax with it before it’s… TEE-SHIRT TIME!
Wilson Pickett – In the Midnight Hour: Midnight is rapidly approaching and if you’ve made eye contact with any less than 3 prospects, it’s pretty much a sure thing you’re going to be watching your friends suck face while wondering where that hottie you spotted around 11:35pm slipped off to. Now, channel the vintage crooner within and git ‘er done.
Panic! At The Disco – New Perspective: It’s the first hours of 2011 – welcome to your new perspective. Who cares if you’re going to spend the first day of the year in bed nursing a massive hangover with – wait, who is that? The year still has big things in store for you. Starting tomorrow.
The Walkmen – In the New Year: Now that those advil have kicked in, get your ish together and back on track. Here’s to a safe and happy New Years for all – it’s gonna be a good year, folks…
***Looking forward to a 2011 chock full of recommendations!***
