LP: LOST ON YOU

Was just introduced to this song by a friend. Damn, so hauntingly beautiful. And it's got more than 308 million views on YouTube already. Didn't know about her before. Where have I been?

PIXIES AT TINY DESK CONCERT: GREENS AND BLUES

Same o' story with all/most of Pixies' songs: It took me a while to like it. And when it hit me, it hit me real hard. "Greens and Blues" is one of my current most favourite tunes of Pixies, especially, and alternative rock in general. Such a beautiful bittersweet goodbye song.
