For a long time, I thought the song "I Melt With You" was called "I'll Stop the World and Melt With You." Turns out that's just a line, and the title is, as seen above, shorter. Also, I thought that it was by The Cure. It's not. It's by Modern English.

Not the Cure

One Word
The Hannah Georgas song that I heard on the radio this summer is called "Dancefloor," not "Dance Floor." It's one word, not two. I discovered that about 40 seconds before writing this.

No "!"
I think when "Pas de Cheval" came out, they didn't have the exclamation mark, so they were Panic at the Disco.

Bear in Mind
Bear in mind, before I tell you this, that I don't claim to be a music critic. I don't necessarily tell why I like a song; I just tell you that it's good or awesome or whatever.
I'm telling you this because the next song on my list is "Drinking Games" by Library Voices, and I don't remember at all how it goes. I know I like it; I just forget the song itself.
Anyway, enjoy!

It's Not Morbid
"It's not morbid," Aunt Eliza replied. "It's realistic." And then she gave Janet this super ugly family thing made of several generations of hair. "It's a hairloom!" she told them, smiling.
Anyway, it was super ugly and Felicity was pissed that they got it. She was all, "Why can't we just tell her what we want and what we don't want?" and Janet told her, "That's just not the way things are done." And Felicity's all like, "Well maybe that's how things should be done!"
It was that way of thinking that got her to go to medical school.
Anyway, "To Lose My Life" by White Lies is about as morbidly titled as the last song of theirs I featured, prompting this "Road to Avonlea" story.

Okay, Let's Do This
Okay, I'm finally back. I've put together an ever-growing list. Let's hope it keeps growing, rather than shrinking, so it doesn't get to the point that I have nothing to feature.
I'll start off with a song called "Let Me Go On" by a band called Seabird. I keep forgetting I like this song, so every time I listen to it, I always think, "Oh yeah. That's why I downloaded this song.

Sorry!
Okay, I realize I just came back after months, but I have this whole list of songs to feature, and they, like my iTunes, are on my computer, which is on its way to Dell right now, so that they can fix poor Gertrude's backlightt. As such, I am currently using my sister's old computer, which runs on Microsoft 2000. Yeah, 2000. Professional.
Anyway, so I may not be able to feature for a while.
So! I've come up with a solution.
Here are some things to look into:
The Arcade Fire just released a new album.
Sign up to I Fight Dragons' e-mail list for updates and free music downloads.

I just discovered an indie music station on iTunes. It's great.

There. That should keep you busy for a while!
