Top Ten Tuesday: Taylor Swift "Wildest Dreams"

Her 16th Top Ten Single of her career and the 5th from the 1989 album. I'm excited to see this video, because I haven't yet. The album sure is enjoyable.

Very lovely and very nostalgic. I can dig it.

Throwback Thursday: 1959

1. M.T.A.

2. All My Sorrows
3. Blow Ye Winds
4. Corey, Corey
5. The Seine
6. I Bawled
7. Good News
8. Getaway John
9. The Long Black Rifle
10. Early in the Morning
11. Scarlet Ribbons
12. Remember the Alamo

I haven't listened to this one all the way through yet, but I know "MTA" from the Dropkick Murphys cover of it. So I basically think of these guys as proto-punks!

Top Ten Tuesday: Drake "Hotline Bling"

There doesn't appear to be an official video for this one, as is often the case with songs just coming into the Top Ten. It'll probably be released in the next week or two.

I like this song. It's very chilled out.

New Countdown: Ladies and Gentlemen, We Have Blurryface.

Mumford & Sons

Believe it or not, this is a milestone episode!

Enjoy!



Countdown #264

***Featuring***
The Airborne Toxic Event
AWOLNATION
Beck
Cold War Kids
Coleman Hell
Elle King
Florence + the Machine
The Struts
twenty one pilots
X Ambassadors

Throwback Thursday: 1960

1. Abe Lincoln vs Madison Avenue
2. The Cruise of the U.S.S. Codfish
3. Merchandising the Wright Brothers
4. The Kruschev Landing Rehearsal
5. Driving Instructor

6. Nobody Will Ever Play Baseball

This album won Album of the Year, a first for a comedy album. It was the third Album of the Year. "Driving Instructor" is probably the most famous track from this album. It's still hilarious.

Top Ten Tuesday: Ed Sheeran "Photograph"

What a fun, weird little video. It was put together by Ed's Dad and you can see the love that went into it. Very cool. And congratulations to Ed for his 3rd Top Ten song from X!
