I liiiive!

...Just wanted to say that. That's what it feels like coming out of this week. It's not so much that I was busier this week as that my sleeping patterns got thrown off and I haven't had a decent night's sleep all week. Sleeping till 8 was a good feeling. :)

Oh, I went on a mad shopping spree on allofmp3 the other day...see, I went there for the sole purpose of snagging "Paranoid Android" by Radiohead (I love that song...ironically, I first heard it on an anime. Ergo Proxy...makes little sense to me, but I still love it.).

Then I heard "Idioteque", which I ironically first heard on an AMV (anime music video, where people manipulate scenes from an anime to go with a song. They can come out really cool or really funny.), and I had to get that too.

Then I felt nostalgic, so I bought the first pop song I ever actively listened to ("Sunny Came Home" by Shawn Colvin) and "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?" by Paula Cole (I don't know why the heck I love that song so much, but I doodly doodly do).... I got "Hide and Seek" by Imogen Heap and "Krwlng" (a remix of "Crawling") by Linkin Park, too.

...Then I saw that John Mayer's new CD was out. So 5 songs from there... ("Bold as Love" is probably my favorite...although I like "I Can't Trust Myself (With Loving You) too. Actually, I like all 5 songs I got a whole lot.) His sound's a little different this time around...he's definitely been influenced by the John Mayer Trio thing he did, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

...Then I saw that Evanescence's new album was out, so 9 songs from there... (still as depressing as ever, although the last song comes very, creepily close to almost happy...but doesn't make it, of course. "Lithium" is probably my favorite, although I like "Like You" a lot too, although that's a really, really, REALLY depressing song...I mean, seriously...Evanescence should not be allowed to write about death. They're already depressing enough...)

....Then I saw that The Killers' new CD was out.

So of course, I had to get the whole CD. I reaaaally like the Killers. "For Reasons Unknown" is definitely my favorite song on this CD. It sounds pretty much the same as Hot Fuss, which makes me happy.

"Sam's Town" is great, isn't it? Most times, 2nd releases suck, but this one didn't disappoint.
