Hey you lot! I know it's been a while since I've done a Monday Music post but here I am -- making dubious artwork and letting you in on my favourite tunes lately. I hope you enjoy this post and that your Monday is far from blue.
I heard this song from Ocean's first studio album (Channel Orange) for the first time last night. AND I'm hooked! I even changed my twitter bio after the third listen. Ahahaha. It's definitely not new music but it's new to me. I guess I have to take a closer listen to Channel Orange one of these days.
I've had this song on repeat for a few weeks now. As I tweeted a while back the most potent part of the offering for me is the husky, breaking quality of Cole's voice. Swoon swoon.
It's hard to believe that there's Lana Del Rey Music I heard for the first time last night, especially since I even bought myself the Paradise edition of Born to Die as a birthday prezzie. Of course I haven't played that CD (I don't have a CD player/radio.) This song is so cheeky and I love it. ahahah. I hope the "artwork" makes sense after listening to the song.
Happy Music Monday!

NOMALI!!!! You're backkkkkk, yaaaaaaaay! Lol, I've missed you. I love this music list. My favorite song up here is undeniably Power Trip and I'm not being biased because my husband/future father of my 3 kids Miguel Jontel Pimentel is featured on the record because regardless it's dope. J.Cole is just... I loved these words, I loved their sound, ugh this song is so good. I've tried to get into Frank a little bit, but I've found that I'm more into his mixtape songs than the song off his debut album. And Lana Del Rey, ahhhh I love her. Listening to her music always put me in a lull vibe.
ReplyDeleteI love Lana Del Rey!!! I was into her long before all this The Great Gatsby hype! The song Young and Beautiful is quite lovely tho! I LOVE THE SONG RADIO, have a listen some time!!!
ReplyDeleteBest welcome ever! LOL! Thanks, Sheriden. I'm not fully back in the swing but I missed these parts too much to stay gone so I decided to pop in. Power Trip is so sleek! I just sit here and swoon whenever I play it. I'm such a weirdo about things that I get into music/artists one song at a time. Yes, Lana, 4life.
ReplyDeleteGlad you stopped by. Thanks. :-)
I'm utterly besotted with Lana. Her name is a searchable term on this blog. Yes, love Radio. I wanted to go watch Gatsby just so I could hear the song in the context of the film and be filled with even more nostalgia.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
