Stars is legit one of my favorite bands period. Often times when I share their music with someone, people say it doesn’t sound like the music I’d like. I find that rather insulting; their music is poetic, deep and beautiful. I am hoping to go see them in November in New Orleans. I love their music so much I can listen to it all day on repeat. I can do that with very, very few bands.

Lady GaGa has been my “fun” music for awhile now. This is just one of her lesser known songs that I find incredibly catchy.

Arcade Fire’s latest album “The Suburbs” is just flat out brilliant. I didn’t think they would be able to top Neon Bible but The Suburbs is amazing. Great album from beginning to end.

Broken Bells are the best thing to come out of 2009 so far (aside from The Limousines debut album). Their music videos are just as awesome as their music and I find them highly inspirational.

Here’s “The High Road” by Broken Bells
