Top Five of 2012: Number 2
Filed Under Album Picks, The Lists | Leave a Comment
I sit here surfing the internet listening to the debut album from The Lumineers. The 2012 trio phenomenon that will get you up dancing and singing your heart out with their toe tapping, sing-a-long folk rock. I am belting out every lyric and I am literally dancing in my chair to their top Billboard hit, Ho Hey. I sing along to every song on this album.
And although my little indie hipster heart died a little the day they were nominated for a Grammy… I still love them. And when I suffered through a sold out venue in Orange County, CA with no AC while a bunch of drunken nit wits stumbled around, I didn’t care because when they got on stage, I no longer paid attention to anything else. I didn’t care that I was sweating through my clothes and I could barely move let alone breathe… I didn’t care. I could of listened and watch them perform all night like that. They are artists. THEY are about the music and I have found home in their lyrics. The melodies wrap me up in a warm blanket and take all the pain away. It is so very beautiful.

Broken Chair

I heard this song tonight when a Google Chrome commercial came on. Even though I have DVR there will always be some commercials that I end up watching. This was one that I could not miss and I am so glad I didn’t. It made me cry, laugh and I fell head over heels in love with the song accompanying the very touching video. I also fell in love with the rest of the album, it is ever so lovely. Link to the video here.

You breathe, you learn, you lose.
You take, you break, you choose.
And as, you learn, and cry.
You do, your best, and try.And as, the days, go by.
It makes you, wonder why.
You try so hard, so hard.
To mend what’s bound to fall apartOoh maybe it’s time
To let it go
Ooh maybe it’s time
For taking it slowOoh maybe it’s time, time, time
For anything at all
Time, time, time, to let it all fall
Where it mayAnd as, the world, goes on.
You try, to walk, and sing along.
And hope, some things, will stay.
And every tune that you play.Ooh maybe it’s time
To let it go
Ooh maybe it’s time
For taking it slowOoh maybe it’s time, time, time
For anything at all
Time, time, time, to let it all fall
Where it may
Ooh…
Ooh…And as, your life, goes on.
You deal with, what comes along.
Some friends, they come, and stay.
Some leave and, go their way.Ooh…
Ooh…

Lay Low is the musical project of LovÃsa ElÃsabet Sigrúnardóttir an Icelandic country/folk singer-songwriter. Yes, you read that correctly, a combination of Loretta Lynn meets Sigur Rós and I like it.
