Billie Holiday by Warpaint , such a lovely dreamy quality to this song, perfect for a lazy warm Sunday evening.

Mia Doi Todd "Open Your Heart" dir. Michel Gondry Love, love, love Michel Gondry's work, but not really heard of Mia Doi Todd until now. This must have been loads of fun to film.

Phew I'm knackered! I've been running around to gigs, birthday meals and drinks non stop for the past three days which is very unusual for me, my stamina levels no longer stretch to going out for than a couple of times a week now days - you'll find me curled up under blankets hibernating the rest of the time. No time or energy for posting pretty things today, so I'll settle for the new single by Hot Chip, who I had lots of fun bopping along to at the Brixton Academy on Friday. Followed by a video (my beloved!) Thom Yorke playing one of his new songs 'Give up the Ghost' which debuted at the gig in Cambridge earlier in the week. It was simply spell binding, I'm so glad I made the effort to travel up to see him, and despite the fact that my friend and I missed our last train home and then had an adventurous 3 hours journey home, it was absolutely worth it.   Hot Chip - One Life Stand (MySpace Exclusive) Hot Chip

You might not guess if you saw me in the street, but I'm a card carrying Radiohead geek. I've been listening to them for half of my life and no other band I can think of has continued to captivate my attention so consistently. I'm *beyond* excited to be hopping on the train up to Cambridge tonight for the rare treat of seeing Thom Yorke playing solo at the old Corn Exchange. I might just explode with excitement. (He's got a weirdly sexy pixie thing going on there no? No? Maybe its just me...sigh.)
