hang me up to dry

erin watson why are you so cool?

muse - madness

devil gonna follow me e'er i go

what a song

love is blindness

Story: Last week my sister sent me a link to the Great Gatsby movie trailer, which don't get my wrong looks amazing, however all I could think about was that amazing song in the background. Of course after flurried research leave it up to U2 to make such an intense song with not only thought provoking lyrics but a great thumping beat. THEN I realize it is a Jack White cover. So we go from great trailer to great song to great cover. What a wonderful day. 

ps. today I found the music video..sigh

and it's hard to dance with a devil on your back

with the recent release of florence and the machine's new album ceremonials, i've been inspired to start this up again. not sure if anyone is out there listening but here we go...

"shake it off" is the first single released from this album and it's truly something special. music, beat, lyrics and video are all so inspiring and just make you want to get up and swing your body around. This is my method for full absorption of the song:

1. listen to the music and the beat

2. watch the video 

3. read the lyrics (more than once) 

4. blast it in your room and dance until you shake off every devil on your back

Katy Perry - ET

I wouldn't say that I like the words to this song, but the video is really something else. Definitely a case of a cool video making up for silly words.
