Bored with electricity

Just watch.

So I don't know if you've heard of The Lonely Island, but it's the combined musical talents of SNL's Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone (famous for dancing around shirtless to various SNL musical guests). Their album dropped last Tuesday, and who is featured in one of their songs, but Julian Casablancas?For your listening pleasure. [Source]

M.I.A. had a bb boy! In fact, she went into labor when she came home from the Grammy's (did you see her performance with Kanye, T.I., Jay-Z, & Lil Wayne? More importantly did you see her awesome maternity outfit??) Read the new mama's update! [Source 1, 2]

Into this long month of Sundays

So it's good to know Julian Casablancas is opening up Korean BBQ restaurants with his time off. I mean I'm all for Korean BBQ (represent!) but srsly. Get it together. Or at least get a haircut. [Source]

As for myself, I have not been opening up Korean BBQs but of course getting sick & accumulating into one big stressball. Whee.

Anyways, this made me lol irl a lot. It's so funny. It's a vid of Katy Perry falling. & then she does it again.... & again. Lolz x10. [Source]

Franz Ferdinand is releasing their new album on January 27th! YAY. By then, I'll actually have a life, seeing as how college apps will be out of my life. But yeah, the album's called Tonight: Franz Ferdinand. I have high hopesss. Check the source for some tour dates! [Source]

Also soon-to-be-released, is Pitchfork's FIRST EVER BOOK. Prettyyyyyy excited. It's going to be a guide of the 500 greatest songs, from "punk to the present." Can't wait. Pre-order the book (comes out Nov 11) hurrrr. [Source]

Check out this new vid for Island's song, "Creeper." I never heard the song, but I'm a big fan of Islands/The Unicorns & I'm a huge creeper myself (I have small stalker-like tendencies but I like to file them under my "cute little quirks") WHATEVER, LONG STORY SHORT: go watch the video. [Source]

So just to let you know, I've been listening to a lot of Patrick Wolf (future husband) & Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. Check them both out if you don't already listen to them!

I like the peace in the backseat

Zomg!~

I absolutely loveeeee this picture. Srsly.

 Anyways, remember this post? Well, Converse has released the song by Julian Casablancas (my bf), Santogold, & Pharrell Williams (pictured above). You can download here at their site (if you prefer MP3 to zip files, try this site instead). It almost sounds M.I.A.ish to me. I like it, catchy enough for a Converse jingle anyways.  [Source-TMA]

By now you should know that anything Strokes/Julian Casablancas related catches my eye. So here it is. Apparently, Pharrell Williams, Santogold, and Julian will be making a little jingle for a Converse commercial. Visit Stereogum if you're as excited as me to hear anything that Julian will have a part in. 

Also, if you haven't watched Prince Caspian yet, (featuring my number one celeb crush, William Moseley!!!!!!!!) then you'll be pleasantly surprised with the ending song. I know I was, when I heard Regina Spektor's melodic voice fill the theater. I wasn't familiar with the song & I remember thinking how perfectly the words managed to capture the scene. I went home to look it up and discovered the name "The Call" (click for lyrics) & that I think she wrote it specifically for the movie. The song really cinched the ending of the movie for me, & I admit it made me tear up a little. Thanks to the Hype Machine, you can download the song here.
