The time has come!
Guess what time it is? Playlist of the week time! This week I decided to focus on cover songs. Enjoy! 1. “I Want You Back” —This oldie (by the Jackson 5) but awesome-y has a great cover by the electronica band Discovery.

Sheryl Crow - 100 Miles from Memphis - Sideways
Yes, I will stand up and say it; I am a Sheryl Crow fan. No, I will not be attending Lillith Fair this year (I know…it’s back). I bring this up because her new album 100 Miles from Memphis came out today. Although Leah and I vowed this would be a space for musical reviews and recommendations of the more edgy sort, I feel a few quick comments need to be made about Ms. Crows newest album in order...

Playlist of the Week
So…each week we’re going to put together a playlist compiling some of our favorite songs that we’ve been listening to particularly frequently that week. The songs have nothing to do with this week specifically and are an amalgam of our diverse musical tastes… We’ll try to be as un-pretentious as we can… Enjoy! Leah’s Pick(le)s: 1. You’re So...
