Five Songs I Have Not Been Able to Get Out of My Head

1. Wild Belle - Keep You


Every time this song plays on my ipod I get suuuuper pumped. Brother and sister duo, Elliot and Natalie Bergman who make up the indie-rock band Wild Belle are full of musical talent. With Natalie's gorgeous voice, reggae vibes and a heavy jazz influence in "Keep You" I can't help but start it over and over again before I finally let my ipod move on to another song.

2. Lady Gaga - Applause


Lady Gaga's newest hit reminds me of why I fell in love with Gaga's music in the first place. She may be quirky, controversial, and just downright odd sometimes but the lady is talented. She has such a unique perception on art and it definitely shows in her videos. And this song really does make me want to get up and dance and "put my hands up and make them touch."

3. Early Morning Rebel - Life Boat


Early Morning Rebel has easily become one of my new favorite bands. I'm especially obsessed with Life Boat and how the song strongly expresses that exhausting feeling of trying to "save."

4. Anberlin - Impossible


I already love Anberlin like crazy, but this song takes the cake. Straight forward and real, the lyrics lay down the challenges of a relationship gone wrong. "Not so easy to forgive, harder to forget." Good shit. And to top it off, the video's pretty rad as well.

5. Foster the People - I Would Do Anything For You


I could listen to this song on repeat all day long. With no exception to the rest of their music, "I Would Do Anything For You" is upbeat and catchy, yet so easy going at the same time.
