My 5 Music Obsessions of the Day

You can stream the music obsessions each week here on Spotify

1. Just One of the Guys :: Jenny Lewis

“How I live,
it got me here,
locked in this bathroom,
full of tears.
I have begged for you,
and I have borrowed,
but I’ve been the only sister to my own sorrow.”

2. Romeo and Juliet (live) :: Matt Nathanson

“You said, I love you like the stars above,
I’ll love you till I die.”

3. Monster :: Mikky Ekko

“You’ve gotta listen to the things that she says,
and be aware of her lies,
’cause a wolf in sheep’s clothing,
will wait in the dark,
to pull it over your eyes.”

4. 5am :: Amber Run

“And you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone.
And you don’t know who to love until you’re lost.
And you don’t know how to feel until the moment’s passed.”

5. The Dark It Comes :: Carl Barât and Vanessa Paradis

“I’m lonely,
I’m lost,
and I’m wild at sea.
Won’t you please let me in,
I can barely breathe.”
