Joe's MIA this week

So this week we had to change things up from previous weeks and that meant the posts are going to be a little different then they have been in the past also. Joe just received the keys to his new house so he's been moving in all weekend and also doesn't have Internet. Sooooo I'm here to give you an extra posting of a few songs that I'm enjoying...

So first up in the Rachel's Extra Post is Chase & Status ft Plan B with a song called End Credits. It's something I came across while looking around iTunes one day. I had been going through Prodigy's play list when I saw that another person had bought the Chase & Status song. I'm always up for new songs so I figured why not give it a try. It first draws you in with the guitar and then changes into a sort of dance song. I've really enjoy this song and the beat when it breaks into the dance part.

This next song is a favorite of mine. One of my favorite bands is Tegan and Sara so when I heard they were going to be featured on the new Tiesto album I got interested in what it could be. I was completely surprised (in a good way) by what was on the album. I'm not much of a dance/techno/rave music fan and wasn't thrilled with the previous collaboration between the two groups of musicians but this was more then I expected. The lyrics are great and the beat is amazing too. I find myself singing and dancing along more times then not (they also perform a great acoustic version at their concerts). The video is pretty awesome too...hope you enjoy!

Last but not least on this extra posting will be Uh Huh Her with Not a Love Song. I think it has a great hook and after a few listens, here's a quick heads up, will get stuck in your head. Which isn't a bad thing because it's a fun song. I have heard a bunch of songs from this record and think that their electo-pop sound is pretty good. They have been in the studio working on their newest album and I'm looking forward to hear what they came up with.
