New Add: Arctic Monkeys –Do I Wanna Know?

New Music Add: Arctic Monkeys –Do I Wanna Know?

There is some pretty graphic doodling being done in this music video so I have posted two versions, viewer beware.

REALLY excited that one of my current favourite songs, from my current favourite album, from my current favourite band has been added to the Mountain FM playlist.  With a mesmerizingly addictive guitar line and lyrics that will loiter in your mind for days, this is a song I hope I get a lot of requests for. I’ll admit it has not left my iTunes ‘recently played’ list for months and I think it can also be found in the top 10 of my most played songs ever.

You can check out my previous ravings about the Arctic Monkey’s, their new album ‘AM’ and even their music video for ‘Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High’.

I hope you like it, I know I shrieked when I saw it on my music logs and gushed like a schoolgirl when I announced it on-air. I’ll even admit that I cranked the speakers in the studio and sang at the top my lungs, this only happens for the cream of the classic and best new rock we play (it tends to happen at least once a day).

Let me know if you like it!

#TuneTuesday: September 17, 2013

Unfortunately we will never share #MusicMonday because I work Tuesday to Saturday. So I will be hooking you up with my favorite music cuts on what I am calling #TuneTuesday. I would love it if you called it that too, lets make it a thing)

This week, unfortunately I am not raving about a Canadian video. Arcade Fire is still blowing my mind from last week’s post. This week we are meshing some pretty gritty Brit-rock from the Arctic Monkeys and a song that will make anyone with a heartbeat dance.

**Beware; this video contains some censored adult content.

1.    1. ‘Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High?’ –Arctic Monkeys

Have you ever gone out for the night hoping to see one person only to find out they are staying in and not willing to give you the attention you think you deserve? Yup, that is what this song and video are about. Lead singer and lyricist Alex Turner’s voice is stunning, full of longing and messy desire. This video is not a new release (I think it came out in August), but the song is catching on right now with the release of ‘AM’ the Arctic Monkey’s latest album. The beginning of the video features the perfect musical preface the Arctic Monkey’s ‘Do I Wanna Know?’ and melts… it is the perfect 12am song turning into the 3am result song.

Seriously, buy this album. Watch these videos. Get into the Arctic Monkeys if you aren’t already.

2    2. ‘Lose Yourself to Dance’ – Daft Punk feat. Pharrell Williams

Just dance. Do it. The video is cool, I loved that they teased it at the MTV VMA’s but is not really necessary. You can sit around watching a bunch of people or groove or you can just let your body respond naturally and dance.
