so, you know that thing where you really like a song or a movie or a book until you find out that the person behind it - singer, actor, author, magical puppet master, etc. - is sort of awful?
well, don't let that happen right now.
there's this song - i just added it to the blog playlist (which really needs a nickname - maybe the bloglist?) so see if you can find it - which i'm kind of addicted to. it's a free download from the record label right now (the password is gossip) here, so go get your own copy before the promotion ends. i really didn't want to like this song, either, since the girl who sings it (taylor momsen, she's jenny on gossip girl) seems to be...well, she doesn't seem like someone i would like. for one thing, i don't even watch gossip girl, and for another she wears things like this:
but it's so hard when her music is actually...good. like that song i just linked you to? in itunes i made its genre cabaret rock. what's not to love about something that can be called cabaret rock? she's got a bunch of demos out if you hunt around the internet and she's working on her album now - in all likelihood she's going to blow up just like leighton meester (undeservedly) did just because she's on gossip girl, so start listening now before there's actual press about her that'll put you off her music.
oh, and since this is a middle of the night post (caused by late night writing, sadly, and not late night homework completion) i feel fully justified in making this all about music (and parentheses...take that grammar gods) and will link you my current writing song/other new addition to the bloglist:
isn't it pretty? also, in case you didn't notice, that's z berg from the like, so double win.
stay tuned for another post...in the actual daylight hours (ha, see what i did there? with the punning and the song title and...yeah, i know. things are only funny in my head)
also this blog has become oddly full of parentheses. blame the late hour.
