Actors sipping tasty hot water

Thanks to Paw's suggestion, I've finally decided to start a sort of tea blog/review. The link is above with all the other blog links - it's called "Tasty Hot Water". The first post describes more or less what I feel like doing with it :)

As for "Actors" - it is the name of the new album by St. Vincent. Paw and I had seen them open for The Arcade Fire on may 13, 2007. The singer used to be part of the Polyphonic Spree (another good band, albeit incredibly cheerful). Anyways, they were really good and I also very much enjoyed their first album, so decided to check this one out.
It is different from the first album in some ways. She still has the same kind of mellow, haunting voice and nice beats. Anyways, definitely an album to check out.

Here is the single and probably my favorite song so far, called "Actor out of work"


I must commend those people for their awesome anger and crying skills. I wonder if the used onions to make them cry...

I recently heard this song (friend sent it to me). It's by Lisa Mitchell - Neopolitan Dreams. It's soooo cute :O the twinkles and her voice.

While looking for a different song, I stumbled upon an Armin van Buuren remix of "Human" by The Killers. It's quite good :D



Apparently there's a CD with a bunch of remixes of "Human". I guess I'll check it out sometime and see if they are as good as this one.

Also, I'm in a little bit of a reggae mood thanks to hearing a Bob Marley song on Saturday (I was at a Philipino Youth Fundraiser. One of the local acts covered "Zimbabwe"). As usual, it's groovy and quite summery. So here you go.
