top 5 songs of the moment

I literally CANNOT stop listening to them...in no particular order. And I know none of them are necessarily new, but whatevs. I'm addicted right now.

1. MIA - Paper Planes. You've all heard it (all 3 people who read this ever). But from the first second I heard this song (months and months and months ago EVERYWHERE), I've been hooked. I never stop disliking it. No matter what! And I just was revived with seeing Slumdog - which is AMAZING.



2. Beyonce - Single Ladies. The dance is just. so. addictive.



3. T.I. - Whatever You Like. Ok, I first of all I LOVE T.I. SO MUCH IT'S SCARY (I guess I just like dudes that are about to go to jail). But this song, for some weird reason - I just really like it.



4. Concrete and Clay - Unit 4 + 2. I know this song is old and I've heard it 1,000 times, but this song is the song of my future. I just love it. It just cheers me up walking to work.



5. Noah and the Whale - 2 Atoms in a Molecule. 



Last night, I had a dream
We were inseparably entwined
Like a piece of rope made out of two pieces of vine
Held together, holding each other
With no one else in mind

Like two atoms in a molecule
Inseparably combined

But then I woke from the dream
To realise I was alone
A tragic event, I must admit
But let's not be overblown
I'm not trying to write a love song
Just a sad, pathetic moan

And maybe I just need change
Maybe I just need a new cologne

But now I look at love
Like being stabbed in the heart
You torture each other from day to day
And then one day you part
Most of the time it's misery
But there's some joy at the start
And for that, I'd say it's worth it
Just use a blade that's short and sharp on me

And if love is just a game
Then how come it's no fun?
If love is just a game
How come I've never won?
I guess maybe it's possible I might be playing it wrong
And that's why every time I roll the dice
I always come undone

cut and paste this

a few months ago i wanted to make this a cut and paste blog, but i never have my camera on me anymore...and i never see any awesome cut and paste action in the subways anymore either
but then two months ago i read this article in ny mag.

and about two months ago i meant to post it...but better late than never, right? either way...i think it's better to look out for that dude's "sporadically updated flickr account," rather than this blog. especially considering i never see any cut and paste, and i never update this blog.
