Recently I found myself dumbstruck by the kind of music that dominated the Grammy's. Now, I'm sure the so-desperate-for-attention-that-i'll-stalk-a-boy "beliebers" will throw hate mail my way but that poor boy shouldn't have even been nominated. Lady Antebellum got a few rewards and frankly they deserved it. They made country music cool again without singing about 4 shots of whiskey and a girl named Lucille. But overall I just felt that a lot of the winners weren't really that good and in light of that I proudly present my Top 5 Songs at the moment.
Now just for one moment ignore the fact that this is on the soundtrack of Twilight: Eclipse. Because let's face it, if it weren't for the soundtrack those poor fang boys would never had all their fame. This song by Florence and the Machine is just so epic in both wording and production value, and yes I sing along to this like a teenager in my car.
Next up is one of the best voices in music at the moment. Just take it in.
This next one is from Mumford and Sons. THE MOST UNDERRATED BAND IN THE WORLD. Pure Genius.
Yes yes, go ahead judge me. Call this woman what you want: crazy, attention-seeking, ridiculous etc. She doesn't care and neither does 30 million other people. She creates hit after hit. I only put up the audio track because that music video...well...I'm still trying to figure that out for myself.
Besides from being probably the coolest music video of the year, Mr West has collaborated with Rihanna and Kid Cudi to drop an absolute ripper of a song. PLEASE NOTE: This music video contains very frequent flashes of light and colour that can trigger seizures for people with epilepsy. No jokes.
Let me know what you think of my choices. Agree? Disagree?
