Album: Omni
Year: 2010
So many people dislike this album because it strays from Minus The Bear's previous music. I don't know whether or not to be thankful that this album was my introduction to this band, 'cause I love this song and a few others off the album.
I love the almost harsh start to the song that drops into groovy melodies and charming harmonies. It has an effortless feel to it. That groove of the guitar comes to the front in the bridge of the song. I almost listen to it more than the actual vocals. I'm also in love with the lyrics. They're beautifully sensual and fresh.

Artist: TV On The Radio
Track: DLZ
Album: Dear Science
Year: 2008
Some may recognize this track from the popular TV series Breaking Bad. It played in what became my favorite scene out of the entire series. The song had a lot to do with that.
That being said, this song automatically makes you feel awesome whenever you listen to it. Especially when driving. From the almost primal beats to the slowly building vocals to finally trailing off with a haunting whistle. In between is a whole mess of percussion and voices that somehow manage to electrify the music.
