The Asteroids Galaxy Tour

It's not every day that I feel like recommending Danish music, but today I'll make an exception. I'm not sure what it is about the Asteroids Galaxy Tour that I like. Maybe it's the name or the psychedelic videos, maybe it's their charismatic lead singer Mette Lindberg, or perhaps it's the groovy 70s vibe they explore in their music, but I really do like them. The song featured in Apple's iPod commercial "Around the Bend" is my favorite and the video is very cool. Have a look below and get ready to be transported back to another time.

Alice Cooper - Years Ago

This is one of my favorite songs. My mom used to play it when I was a kid at night, and I'd sit in the window and look out at all the cars in the moonlight. I remember it like it was yesterday. It scared the bejeezus out of me back then and I still think it's the most creepy song ever. But I LOVE IT! The lyrics are very schizo and the carnival music is so damn haunting. So, turn off the lights, turn up the volume, close your eyes and just drift away while you listen to it.

The Benefits - Seize the Day

I love this song! I've always loved the Dick Turpin theme and these guys made it into a really rad song. And they're Danish! The funniest part is it turns out I went to school with the lead singer haha.

French and fabulous - Superbus

Today I'm actually going to write about music, specifically a wonderful French band called Superbus. I noticed their music on one of my Paris trips when I saw them on a French music program on our hotel room TV set. I brought their CD home with me having only heard one song but I was positively surprised by the album, which is now part of my everyday playlist. Their music is really good and they have such a good vibe. It's pop/rock and most of the songs are in French but some are in English. I think the French language is so charming and I just love the sound of it. I'd definitely recommend this band and I'll leave you with some of their songs here so you can have a listen.
