Finals Week: Hasta La Vista, Baby!

It's finals week and to celebrate a year in the life of L-09, the GIRLs are going to hit up a late night showing of A-Team tomorrow night. But to make it up to you, I'm putting up a special edition playlist! Some of it is very obviously dedicated to my lovely apartment mates, some of it is just what has been making me happy lately.

Coming soon (special edition): Jezli's favorite summer songs!

01 - Israel Kamakawiwo Ole - Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What A Wonderful World
02 - Bon Iver - Come Talk to Me (Peter Gabriel cover)
03 - Freelance Whales - Generator ^ Second Floor
04 - The Big Pink - Dominos
05 - LCD Soundsystem - Daft Punk Is Playing at My House
06 - Cut Copy - Strangers In The Wind
07 - Passion Pit - To Kingdom Come
08 - The Temper Trap - Sweet Disposition
09 - The Lonely Island - Boombox (feat. Julian Casablancas)
10 - Spoon - Written in Reverse
11 - She & Him - Me and You
12 - Iron and Wine - Such Great Heights (The Postal Service cover)
13 - Jack Johnson - Banana Pancakes
14 - Rod Stewart - Have I Told You Lately
15 - Simon & Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Waters

Thanks for listening all quarter, friends! It's been a blast. Look for us in the Fall (my covers week is coming up)! Or maybe in the summer if you get lucky (aka I am not studying for my summer classes). If you miss us too much, you can keep up with Jezli and Bells on our personal blogs. Until then, hasta la vista, baby! (So politically well-timed haha!)

Week 10: Cover This, Bitch

Jezli has left me all alone this week and my favorite listener isn't even listening. Not that you aren't all my favorite listeners, but I have grown particular to one. It's a boy... so you understand. :)

Anyway, we have always wanted to do covers for our last show of the quarter, although I think this will not be our last show of the quarter because Jezli wants to do hers next week for finals week. The first song, "Work" by Dan Reeder, isn't a cover, but I thought I would play it for the masses who are busy studying for finals instead of enjoying their Friday night. I'm actually going to leave the rest of the playlist a mystery and make you download it from the website.

(Right click link and then "Save Link As..." Will download as an MP3 and then drag into your music player.)

EDIT: Bells COVERED for me on COVERS week. Clearly I left because it was part of the theme!

P.S. When I came home I immediately fell asleep and then dreamed that I was still at the party--at the party until like 2pm (that's right, in the afternoon). So basically I got an additional 12 hours of partying in my head!
