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.

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!

New Countdown: Do YOU Know What FIFA Stands For?

Florence + the Machine

We're going to chalk this one being late up to the Labor Day holiday and leave it at that.

But all of that is going to fly out the window when you hear this episode. It's a VERY exciting one :)

I've never seen Wild in the Country, so I'm not sure what this video is comprised of. It's better than just a series of photos, but the plot of the video is a little ambiguous since there are clearly repeated clips. I don't know. We'll take what we can get, I suppose
