Music Monday # 1


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.

  1. 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?

  2. If 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!

  3. I 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.

  6. Yay, 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.

  11. This band sounds like if Muse and Arcade Fire got together and made music. A mix between the weird and the beautiful.
