Marie over at Ramblings of a Daydreamer has a fun feature every Monday where we can share our favorite song of the week. Considering I just went and bought an iTunes gift card for myself because there was about a million songs I wanted to download, I thought I should participate. Plus since I don't do my Sunday Salon post very much anymore I miss torturing you all with a song. ;)
Anywho, the song of the week is Silent Sigh by Badly Drawn Boy. Why? Well, for one it's not a well known song and I like sharing obscure songs. I first heard this song on the movie About A Boy and I just love it so enjoy...or not...that's what I love about music; it's so subjective.
I love that song, too! Found it at the same place but I don't have a copy of it. The whole soundtrack of About a Boy was pretty awesome, wasn't it?
ReplyDeleteI'm glad someone else knows and loves it!
DeleteIf it weren't after 11 and everyone else wasn't in bed already, I'd totally listen to this. I'm going to pull it up on YouTube so that it shows up on my history and I'll listen to it tomorrow morning. I like obscure songs. ;) I'm so excited to see you're participating in this!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to. I love highlighting music I'm obsessed with.
DeleteI had never heard that one before. It's interesting. I think I'd have to listen to it a few times before I decide if I like it or not. I'm like that with a lot of songs.
ReplyDeleteYeah, certain songs are that way for me too.
DeleteI remember this song and I love About A Boy, although I haven't see it for a while. Great song, too!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it a great song? I love it.
DeleteOh cool meme! I love the piano part in this song. I hope you do this meme more often - I love finding new music!
ReplyDeleteThe piano part is my favorite too!
DeleteYay, I'm so glad you're participating! I LOVE this song. I haven't heard it in ages (I've already hit play for a second time), but every time I hear it I instantly think of About a Boy. The whole soundtrack was great.
ReplyDeleteAnd here I was thinking I was the only person that knew this one. ;)
DeleteOh I really like their sound. I'm definitely going to be checking them out some more.
ReplyDeleteI haven't even checked out any of their other songs. I should, though.
DeleteI like. But I don't remember it from the movie.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I never really noticed it until the last time I watched it. Now I can't get enough of it.
DeleteAH, wish I could listent to this! The computer I use on my lunchbreak doesn't have speakers. :(
ReplyDeleteYou'll have to check it out when you can. I really enjoy it.
DeleteDifferent, yes. I could get used to it...
ReplyDeleteI wondered what you'd think.
DeleteThis band sounds like if Muse and Arcade Fire got together and made music. A mix between the weird and the beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI can see that.
DeleteI'm a bit surprised, but I like it! Thanks so much for sharing, I love music almost as much as I love books!
ReplyDeleteYeah, music and books and TV go hand in hand.
DeleteOhhh! Music Monday! What a wonderful idea :) I might just have to participate myself next week! I love About a Boy but I don't remember this song...Guess I'll have to watch it again sometime soon!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know what to expect- but this was a good song. I like to be surprised by songs that are new to me.
ReplyDeleteI saw that AJ Arndt Books gave you an award and came to chck out your blog. So glad I found it- lots of great stuff. I am your newest follower. :)
