The Tea Party - Triptych

Man, oh, man. What can I say about this two-disc CD that won't make me sound like a twelve year old fangirling Hannah Montana? This band started everything for me, music-wise, years and years and years ago. Everything I love about music, every new band that I listen to and love--all because of these guys. Their sound drives me wild, I don't even think I can properly describe it. Everything is layers, one instrument on top of another on top of another until you really just have to sit there with your eyes closed and listen with everything you have.

They can be exotic, they can be soft, they can be so sexy I want to take off my panties and throw them at the CD player. All in all, they're just amazing, and Jeff's voice is so incredible I...I can't even.

Regina Spektor - Begin to Hope

I blame this obsession entirely on

coverd_n_rain. I was happily floating along in my little world, and then she had to go and shove Regina at me, and now I can't go a day without listening to one of her songs or belting out some of her lyrics at innappropriate times. Everything about this CD is fantastic, and even though I like Songs a little better, this album still has the power to knock me off my feet. The lyrics are absolutely breath-taking, the piano playing is gorgeous, and Regina's voice is quirky-beautiful.

And always, always there is something in the song that will stop you in your tracks. Whether it be because it's shocking or because it's beautiful or just because that note hits you right where you live, but, yeah, there is nothing bad here.

Fiona Apple - Extraordinary Machine

All of you have to know by now that I have a deep and unholy love of Fiona Apple. I went to see her over the summer in Central Park, and I swear to God I could watch her perform for the rest of my life. Her music is always beautiful and always real. There's nothing bubble-gum or fake about her--she's all soul and passion, and you can definitely tell that from the way she sings.

There are songs on this album that I've played on loop for days, and somehow I'm still not sick of them and they can still punch me in the gut. Listen to "Parting Gift" and you'll know exactly what I mean. Fiona is just a beautiful, beautiful musician, and I love her like no other. Someone stop me, I'm going to start rhapsodizing about her hair any minute now.

Dirty Pretty Things - Waterloo to Anywhere

Oh, Carl Barat, I love you more than I love water, and that's saying something. You bounced back so prettily after Pete put you through all that shit (OMG PETE, WHY WHY WHY) and now you have a fabulous band and a new CD that is like a 48 minute-long auditory orgasm. Seriously, guys, this album is so fun and sexy and fabulous that I listen to it and I have to take my pants off and dance around like a crazy person.

There are guitar riffs in here that make me clench my fingers and moan, and Carl's voice is so debauched posh boy that I...well, I won't say anything about what it does to me. In conclusion: Carl Barat's Ass.

Lenahan - Brand New Bag

Woops, are my Irish roots showing? Lenahan isn't exactly a popular band in main circles, so I'm not going to put all of the album in the zip file. I want to encourage you all to actually, like, buy their music if you like what you hear. I know the musician in a sort of way where I've talked to them without falling all over myself and we sat down on the stoop to watch fireworks together. Tom and Clarence are fantastic musicians, just completely first class, and they are so much damn fun it's incredible.

There are songs on this album that make me want to jig and there are songs on this album that I used to listen to when I couldn't get to sleep. It's a wide range, but it's all beautiful, and if you even have one tiny ounce of Celtic blood pumping through your veins, this is guaranteed love-at-first-listen. Just ask

purple_sax09 if you see her floating around--I've gotten her hooked but good.

Harry and the Potters - Voldemort Can't Stop the Rock

Tee hee, oh Harry and the Potters. Yes, I've seen them in concert, too, and they are so adorable. They bribed the audience with gummy sharks and cookies to get us out of our seats, and then once we'd come up to the stage, they told us mwahah, you can't sit back down now! The boys are fantastic, and even though neither of them will ever win an award for best vocalist, the lyrics and the groovy tunes more than make up for any shortcomings they might have.

I don't really have much more to say about this one except: listen to the title song. Listen to that song and then get up and throw your arms in the air because you are empowered and ain't nobody gonna get you down anymore!

Ooooh! Grabbed a bunch! *squee!*

*does a shimmy at you*

Oooh. Thank you so! *grabs as much as she can carry*

You're very welcome! :D

I'm grabbing The Tea Party from you. I've never heard them but you're so excited about them I can't wait to listen. I'm taking the A Magical Christmas of Magic too, because of all the Harry and the Potters that's the only one I don't have.

VERY GOOD CHOICES, MADAM. I approve. ♥

thank you soooo much! grabbing most of these, most importantly, A Magical Christmas of Magic. HUZZAH

you're welcome!! if you ever want their "this is christmas" cd--which is the strangest smattering of christmas songs ever--just gimme a yingle. :D

I am so late in replying, but this intrigues me. Still Harry and the Potters? Because I'd love it too :)

Happy Thanksgiving to you *mwah*

THE TEA PARTY!
Fact: I was reading a Harry Potter fic that somehow had the link to "Heaven Coming Down" in it and that's how I first heard about them.

a 48 minute-long auditory orgasm

Will be taking this :D

And Fiona too... And A Magical Christmas of Magic. So yes, basically all.

OMG. The first time I listened to a Tea Party song was because of a Harry Potter fic, too! It was "Temptation" and I fell in love lickity split, zomg.

..who was this fic by, my dear??

That's so cool.

Haha, I think I remember 3 fics/authors from when I read HP - Cassie, Maya (underwater lights or something like that) and ... uhm, Emma something. They all wrote loooong fics, so that's prolly why I remember. All else is erased from my brain ;P

The only one I can get to play is the Dirty Little Things album, which so far I love. I've a few Tea Party songs that I love so I'm sad that I couldn't get them especially. I think I have almost all of the Regina Spektor songs already though.

Do you not have realplayer or iTunes? :(

Nope. I use winamp. DX

nooooesss!! can you download itunes or realplayer or anything????

I guess I could. Uh. I'm fixing to go to the movies, I'll see about it when I get home.

Okay. I've got itunes but instead of Tea Party I'm getting Fiona Apple. I think mega upload hates me. I'm going to bed now though. I've work at 10. DX

you know what, poo on this. i'm gonna just gonna burn the damned things and send them off to you.

*laughs* That'd be awesome because I'm pretty sure that I'm going to love all over Tea Party madly. And it's easier to love on things you can hold. XD

Took both of the Harry and the Potters.

I just got a torrent of Regina Spektor's complete discography, except the bonus tracks. *idea* Did you upload the bonus tracks? I'm taking to check. I would love to get a non-shitty-ass copy of "Uh-Merica." Ohhh Regina. I completely agree with everything you said about her. I was freaking out a little bit because I think I now have more Regina than my 1GB mp3 player can hold and then I was like "Oh, I'll just delete the ones I don't want." Which is none of them. Damn. */ramble*

:/ I don't actually have any of the bonus tracks, since I don't physically own the CDs.

coverd_n_rain gave me the music, so you should go and bug her about Regina - she's more obsessed than I am! Which, yeah, ok, that says a LOT.
