First: It's been a while, so music uploads. I am as eclectic as always.
1. If I Wrote You (Live) - Dar Williams. How much do I love Dar? Enough that this is the third consecutive set of mp3s that include a song by her. Melodic. Gorgeous voice, lyrics, instrumentals.
2. XO - Fallout Boy. Ish music. Indie(ish) rock. Upbeat(ish).
3. Radio/Video - System of a Down. I was suspicious of the new SoaD album, too. BYOB (the first single) didn't really grab me. The rest of the album, which I bummed off my brother, is very, very good. Experimental metal.
4. Somebody More Like You - Nickel Creek. A modern acoustic trio, with a guitar, a violin, and a mandolin pulled together into a rich, deep sound.
5. Hello - Poe. One of my favourite female vocalists. Haunting.
6. How to Explain - The Cat Empire. Fusion music. Swing/rock/jazz/dance. I adore them, and I recommend giving them a try -- if you don't like them, you don't like them, but I think they're a real treat.

I was going to stop there, but then I realized that Metric is coming through town on Monday, and I get to see them live again (so much love! Last time, they were through with Billy Talent.)
Bonus: 7. Wet Blanket - Metric. Low-fi indie. Great vocals. They grow on you like fungi. (Saying I'm wrong/To want more than a folk song)


Second: 20 Doctor Who icons.

The Doctor is in...


Third: Nabbed from [livejournal.com profile] brooklinegirl, who had the bright idea to take out the silly questions and the part ordering people around. If you want to post this in your LJ, too, that's cool. If not, also cool.

Comment and:
1. I'll respond with something random about you.
2. I'll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
3. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me.
4. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you.
5. I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you.

1. Though I tend to associate penguins with you, my metal image of your default icon is Cassie.
2. The Thing About It - Sweatshop Union
3. Secret secret Santa!
4. You recced me on [livejournal.com profile] crackvan, and then friended my LJ. Whee! I got a rec!
5. Are you a city kid? Town kid? How did you end up at boarding school?

Are you a city kid? Town kid? How did you end up at boarding school?

Er, both? Sort of? I was born in Boston, moved to Salt Lake City (which is not in fact an actual city) when I was five, then went back to boarding school in Boston when I was sixteen. I went to Andover because my dad went there, and he implanted the idea in my head, and also I wanted to get out of Utah. :)
