Here are some tunes that have been helping me get through this month . . .
(1) Froot - Marina and the Diamonds
Marina has a new album coming out soon! The more I listen to this track the more fun I think it is and the more clever I find this lyrics. She also has the haunting Happy on this album.

Songs I was listening to in May
So oops. It's been almost a month since my last post. May was a pretty crazy busy time at work and I had to rather drown myself in statistics for a couple of weeks for a final exam. But now it is summer, and I should have more time to be punctual.
To kick things off in an easy manner here are some of the songs I've been listening to in May. It's been a lot of female singers and pop.
Tokyo Sunrise - LP
Um. What can I say. I really really like this girl. Here voice is so unique and her music is very refreshing. I probably listened to this over and over and over again.
She just released a studio version of her most well-known song, Into the Wild, and it sounds pretty great (crank up the volume and get lost in it). I also really like Wasted Love.
100 MPH (in 2nd Gear) - Gemma Ray
This song is so groovy and nostalgic and creepy and anthemic and sorrowful.
Her full albums are a little much to listen to in one sitting, but they are still really fascinating. I also really love Fist of a Flower. The music videos are even darker and freakier! I feel like she should be in Twin Peaks or something.
Breath of Life - Florence + the Machine
F+tM's latest, so DUH, I'm listening to it. a lot.
The choir in this is so perfect. Ok, listening to this again, right now, three times.
Albatross - Judy Collins
My itunes recommended Judy Collins and I remembered that one of her CDs was floating around the house someplace. I tracked it down and this sound really stuck out to me. I don't know what this song is really about yet, but the lyrics (and the flutes!) are mesmerizing.
Seventeen - Marina and the Diamonds
Marina is coming out with a new album soon so I've been revisiting her last batch of songs. I've had all her more popular songs for a while (I'm Not A Robot, Oh No!, Mowgli's Road . . . Hollywood--- except I don't really like that one), I thought I'd get to know the other songs. I've been really jamming to Seventeen.
And just because that video is a little silly, you must watch her video for I'm Not a Robot. It's super cool and beautiful. (P.S. she was doing the rhinestones on the face thing before Katy Perry)
Come Away to the Water - Maroon 5 (feat Rozzi Crane) for The Hunger Games
Someone said to me this week: "Adam Levine! That guy is suddenly everywhere!" which is true. But this song is has such . . . I dunno . . . essence. It matches the movie really well, but is great as a just a song by itself too I think. Adam Levine's voice is strangely suited to this song, which I think was originally written by Glen Hansard.
