Soundtrack of the Day

I have a confession to make – sometimes I briefly sneak music/headphones at my desk. (shhh don’t tell anyone)

Today was one of those days.  I am in one of the stretches of time where my job is absolutely hectic, busy, and full of a lot of writing, phonecalls, emails, figuring stuff out and making stuff work.  I found myself needing a little bit of a pick-me-up this afternoon to get back into the zone, and thanks to the Twitters I also found some good new music.

Enjoy – I know I did.


“3 More Days” Ray LaMontagne (h/t to Bridget Cusick)

 


“One Day Like This” Elbow (h/t to ElsieSnuffin)

 


“You Are The Best Thing” Ray LaMontagne (h/t Pandora)

If you hold a library card from the Saint Paul Public Libray and you aren’t using Freegal, you are missing out on 1)FREE MUSIC and 2)FREE MUSIC!  Long story short, Freegal is a service that provides libraries (and their patrons) access to music in the Sony music catalog.  

When I first heard about it (h/t to Marna), I figured my options would be a bunch of polkas, classical music, and things of that nature – basically nothing of interest to me.  However, it has tons of music and artists and if you’re patient, you can get CDs for free (you only get 3 downloads a week).  What isn’t to love about this? 

Go, try it out.  You can thank me later.
