For something a bit different than my usual posts, here’s a beautiful arrangement from Japanese composer, Masashi Hamauzu.

#songoftheday: The Smashing Pumpkins – Jellybelly
Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness is like the White Album of the 90s. It’s kind of all over the place, but fantastic at the same time. After the uplifting “Tonight, Tonight”, “Jellybelly” really kicks the album into high gear.
#songoftheday: The Clash – Straight to Hell
The Clash are hands down, one of the greatest punk bands of all time. They pioneered an entire genre, and as such, never seemed tied to what that genre had to mean.
#songoftheday: Sloan – Losing California
The video for this song from Between the Bridges gives a pretty decent impression of how Sloan will regularly mix up their lineup mid-performance.
#songoftheday: The Raconteurs – Top Yourself
The rock scene could do with a bit more banjo and slide guitar playing.
#songoftheday: Thin Lizzy – Fight or Fall
This track from Thin Lizzy’s 1976 album Jailbreak, has them injecting a bit of R&B into their hard rock act.
#songoftheday: Ansol & Dyro – Top of the World (Dyro Dubstep Rework)
It’s finally starting to feel like the most brutal winter of my lifetime is starting to give way, so here’s a bit of dubstep to ring in the springtime.
For a bit of an international focus, this song features Dyro (from France) remixing a song from the Canadian/Norwegian Duo, Ansol.
#songoftheday: Weezer – Heart Songs
This song from Weezer’s third self-titled album could very well be the perfect theme for this blog. It’s message is pretty much spot on with my motivation to work on this site.
#songoftheday: Tyrone Wells – Use Somebody (Kings of Leon Cover)
A really well done acoustic cover never fails to increase my admiration for a song that I already enjoyed. The stripped back nature gives you that luxury of admiring the little things, and lets all the emotion behind the song shine through that much brighter.
#songoftheday: Ellie Goulding – Midas Touch
It’s songs like this that make me happy I held out for the deluxe edition of Halcyon Days. Sometimes it pays to be late to the party.
