please take a moment to Chill the F out to - Bat for Lashes

Bat for Lashes has been racking up the critical acclaim for a few years now and has been compared to the likes of Björk and Imogen Heap, but I think I may fall for this woman (real name Natasha Khan,) like I fell for Lykke Li. I caught her on the "Late Show with David Letterman" with David Letterman a few weeks ago, and have had "Daniel" stuck in my head since.

please take a moment to Rock the F out to - White Lies

White Lies are my new favorite band and I can't wait to see them on Friday at Coachella. The first time I heard their music was the same night I heard Panic Bomber's and can only speak highly of them both, though they sound nothing alike. They're a cross between Editors, Interpol and Joy Division, but definitely have a sense of humor & are willing to step outside their genre and cover Kanye West. They'll be touring all over the world this summer, so if you have the chance to check them out you should, or you can buy their debut album at your nearest Target for under 10 bucks.

"I don't believe that anybody, feels the way I do about you now..."

I LOVE this version of Oasis' "Wonderwall" more than the original

"I don't care what nobody says I'm gonna be his lover"

While sharing my love of Lykke Li last week, I forgot to share her cover of "Knocked Up" by Kings of Leon. Originally they asked her to do a remix of the song and it evolved from there.
