now talking's just a waste of breath and living's just a waste of death, so why put a new address on the same old loneliness

so this is a new feature i'm gonna start (btw frank sinatra songs are still happening, it's just becoming a once a month thing because they were taking over). basically, i go through a lot of different music phases and they usually revolve around an album or a playlist. every once in a while, probably every week or two, i'll post my current playlist and you can all see where the titles to these posts come from an maybe learn a little bit about me in the process. here's the first one.

California - Phantom Planet
this one comes up a lot because im a huge OC fan (for those who dont know, this is the theme to the OC) and its just a really catchy song. i've been listening to them a lot lately since they got signed to fueled by ramen (the label that launched fall out boy, panic at the disco, gym class heroes, cobra starship etc.)

Lollipop - Lil Wayne
weezy f. baby returns. this is lil wayne's new single, i'm assuming its the first single off tha carter 3. he is probably the most talented wordsmith in the industry, especially considering that he freestyles most of it while based as fuck.

More Than A Feeling - Boston
please, you know you love it. they just don't make songs like this anymore.

Mr. Jones - Counting Crows
this is one of those songs that you just connect with, where you come out of it feeling like you somehow know the singer. the guitar work is also very nice.

Northern Downpour - Panic at the Disco
thus far the best song of 2008. no question. it could be a classic pop ballad for decades to come. brendon sings with just a twinge of sadness combined with rolling piano and classic rock guitar make it "one of those songs." ryan ross' lyrics never fail to amaze me.

Don't Stop Believin' - Journey
im not gonna lie, this is a total guilty pleasure but i love it.
