music

the other night, a friend and i were discussing various topics: movies, tv shows, jobs, and my favorite, music! it's always interesting to hear what another person's music tastes consist of. I believe it gives a really profound glimpse into their personality, or their mood at any given time.
fortunately, this friend and i had a lot of the same favorite bands/artists.
but it got me thinking about what my favorite music is, and what i'm currently listening to.
it's been a while since i've done this. but i'm currently on an "indie" kick, if you can call it that (that's what my playlist on my ipod is designated as, at least)

here are a few of my current faves: (plus, any random top 40 hit on the radio, most likely)

Imagine Dragons

loooooove them. thanks to steve hale for introducing them to me. saw them play at velour last year, as well as at the rooftop concert series. they're coming to salt lake in a week and a half, and you can bet your bottom dollar that i'll be there!

Gotye

this one is self-explanatory. i'm pretty sure i've posted about this one already. but i really can't get over it.
nor can i get over the dozens of remakes that have come out. i particularly like the pentatonix version, as well as the version that darren criss and matt bomer did on Glee last week (are you surprised?)

joshua radin


no video this time, but i think i could listen to joshua radin all day, every day, so not only is he in my current list, but he may just be part of my top 5 artists of all time.

ellie goulding

love her. currently obsessed with this song as well

and finally, he is we

though they haven't quite had the airtime on my ipod as the others, this song ^ in particular has been a regular in my recently played list for at least a year.

a couple other songs that i'm currently listening to:

Of Monsters and Men

Brendan James

Kate Walsh

Nicki Minaj
