it’s you, it’s me, it’s lalita

oh me oh my i haven’t been here in a while, and what is this, a birthday dedication to me and many other things? I never got to give my birthday songs a listen.

But I’m back because I have been hearing songs that I immediately wished to share or label as a colour.

This song has been playing for quite a while but it’s so happy and bright that there is really no other choice but to play it again.

Los Campesinos is a deceptive name because these kids are actually from Wales. I refused to click play on this song for quite a while because the band name and the song title combined promised some very ethnic festival dancing music. The sound is very youthful and energetic, the kind of thing you forgive youths for coming up with because it just makes you feel happy.

You!Me!Dancing! – Los Campesinos (click!)

And this one will make you feel like you’re jogging and panting and losing control of everything. Don’t you hate these kisses?

It reminds me of fuzzy old recordings, heading back for big beat and the supremes, but there is too much testosterone and careless sadness in the vocals and lyrics to be anything but 2009.

It’s good to be back.

Lalita- The Love Language

birds & bees

“hey boy won’t you take me out tonight?”

My Love makes me dance in bed. It also makes me want to put on pink polka dotted shoes and drink lemonade. And twirlllll round with my arms open wide till I get dizzy, just like how I did when I was 8. Or sit in the bath and have breakfast.

If there’s one song I pick for this week, this is it.

My Love – The Bird and the Bee (clickk!!)
