I do not mind at all.

Hey kiddies,

So the internet in our apartment has been M.I.A. for the past few days, I apologize. One of my roommates had to reset the whole router system... thing. So now it's working and I'm happy. Anyway, You know what's frustrating? Trying to learn a song like "Lack of Color" by Death Cab for Cutie on the guitar by ear. Please, listen to that song. At first it seems pretty easy, but it's nuts. I will learn it. I'm making myself learn it. I like a challenge... musically anyway.

Starting today, I will start putting two things on here with every time I post.
One, I will list the songs that were playing in my head that day. (These will not necessarily include songs that I listened to that day, but the songs that pop into my head when I wake up and throughout the day.)
And two, I will recommend a song to you.

With each song I recommend, I'll try and get you a link to the song or video or something. As I did with Vampire Weekend below. So we'll see how this works out. I just figure it would be interesting to actually document all the random songs that pop into my head.

In my head today:
"Jolly Holiday," from Mary Poppins.
"You Are My King," by Billy Jamesfoote.

Today I recommend:
"Carousels," by Beirut.
The following is an unofficial video for the song:
