Music Club: Participation Activity #2 (March) !!!

[laynie.livejournal.com]

Hi Music Club Memebers!

It's been a while. And I appologize for that. The flu, spring break, and midterms have been just a few of the things I've been dealing with.


So here's our Participation Activity for March. Because I really need some new music to listen to...we will be recommending music. Just name a: new / not well known / older artist who has released new stuff AND post a link of where you can LISTEN to that artist's music. You can find that at: the artist's website, Myspace Music, Amazon.com (clips), or anywhere else you can think of.

You can share any artist's music. As long as you don't name Kanye West, or Pink Floyd...or something extremely well known like that. (If you wanted to listen to their music you could just turn on the radio and hear it within 15 minutes.)

So here are my recommendations to you: (if you listen to them, comment and lemme know what you think!)

1) Regina Spektor: Listen to Soviet Kitsch Album Skip through and listen to "Ode to Divorce", "Poor Little Rich Boy", "Sailor Song", "Your Honor", and "Chemo Limo"...those are my favorites off this album. (A lot, I know. Hah)
Listen to Songs Album: Just listen to the first song, "Sampson"...it's gorgeous.

2) Pink: You all *have* to watch her new video for the song, Stupid Girls. Just go here. It's her website, and the video plays in the bottom left corner. I swear, this song is my *anthem*. It's also my ringtone.

ETA: Because I was such a genius and forgot to screen the comments (*dies!* I'm glad I didn't wait until this evening to check emails) here's one bonus question, just to make sure no one just copied off from the first commenter (don't delete your original comment! Just leave a new comment with the bonus):

Bonus: Who was born at 1847 and died at 1926, married to Ursula Flint and had five children?
