I've been working intensely over the past month or two on Season 3 of Jerseylicious, which has been fun if all-consuming. Combine that with my acting class and dealing with a severe bout of allergies (which culminated in a 4:30am drive to a CVS to get eye drops to douse my burning eyeballs), I haven't had much time for the blog here. But, I've been listening to a whole bunch of music lately, so I thought I'd share. I'll set my mental Earworm mix on shuffle, and here's what my head sounds like lately:
Bruno Mars -- Grenade
My niece Alli introduced this song to me via Facebook. I'd heard of Bruno Mars before but never heard of his music. I think this is a dynamite song about how long love can linger past reason. And it's catchy as hell.
La Roux -- Bulletproof
This is how I like my dance music: the vocal is front and center, it's uber-catchy, and the artist has a signature sound. After my birthday, I'm planning on picking up whatever CDs La Roux has to offer. If they're anything like this song, I'll be one happy camper.
Mumford & Sons -- The Cave
A complete change of pace from La Roux, Britain's Mumford & Sons is all about the acoustic guitar, bango and soaring harmonies. I listened to their album driving around LA one Saturday afternoon and had to fight against tearing up 'cause their songs? Are powerful and gorgeous.
Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross - In Motion (from The Social Network soundtrack)
This score is fantastic and this has to be my favorite track from it. Reznor & Ross won the Oscar for Best Original Score, and they deserved it.
I'm hoping to come back up for air soon. Until then, enjoy the music.
