When The Night Comes...

Ooooh first post of 2013! What up!!

Hope this new year treats you all well :)

So, to start off the new year I have Imagine Dragon tickets and Gabrielle Aplin tickets. BOOM. Hoping to make some stops at a couple of festivals this year too. So it'll be a full on music fuelled year!

Plus new Paramore album.. Out on 8th April in the UK, in case you were wondering. We should hopefully get a new track from them this month, called 'Now'.

Also, here's hoping that The Black Keys get their new album out this year too!!

But now I'll give you some tracks I've been listening to.

First up was a song I heard on an ad while I was at the cinema, watching Seven Psychopaths which is an AH-MAZING movie...seriously, go see it, funny as hell and I love Sam Rockwell. That is all. 

Back at the ranch. So this song was on a advert for OPI nail polish and is the weirdest fucking thing ever. Honest to God, some of the actual comments from others in the theatre were "What did we just watch?" and "What the hell was that?" 

See for yourself.


Imagine that on a 30ft screen. Fucking weird. But I really love the track. It's from a couple of French DJ's called C2C and the track is 'Down The Road'. 
I totally went and bought it from iTunes when I got home. I can't even explain why I like it but it's definitely an ad you wouldn't ever forget seeing on a massive cinema screen, and the song just makes it so unique. 

The next song I'm gonna recommend giving a listen to is from Ellie Goulding. I got her album for Christmas but I've still yet to listen to it. This track was actually used for a movie (as per usual here) called Now Is Good. One of my favourite films of last year, based on the book by Jenny Downham (originally called Before I Die, such an amazing book), the DVD comes out on the 21st January. I've pre-ordered that business. 

It's called 'I Know You Care'. Lovely song, it's been on repeat for the last week. 


I'm just gonna jump right in to the next song. It's a cover of 'Winter Song', the original of which I absolutely love but then this cover comes along and breaks my heart all over again. Dare I say, I love it so much more than the original or any other covers!

It's done by Natalie Taylor with some help from her husband and his band mates General Ghost and she was so kind enough to offer this cover out as a free download, so happy times for everyone!! You can download the track from here. Which I got from Natalie's Tumblr, which is here. Enjoy. 



Last but not least is a song by Dan Auerbach, yes, of The Black Keys. It's from his solo album 'Keep It Hid'. I'm only just getting into this album because I have a hard time even imagining The Black Keys going their separate ways.
There's a couple of his songs that are on constant repeat at the moment but to just chose one I'm gonna go with 'When The Night Comes'. Oh my THIS SONG. I love it. Repeat. Seriously.

So much love for this song. 

Anyway, I'm off. Enjoy the new tunes. Hopefully I've made a fan out of someone for these awesome songs. 

Happy New Year!
