this is a direct order

access some kind of music something.

download.
pirate.
actually walk into a real-life store and purchase a material thing.

i don't care.

get your hands on phantom planet's 'the guest.'

more specifically, get your hands on the song 'lonely day.' it is #3 on 'the guest.'

more specifically, listen to the last 90 seconds of the song. wherein mr. gorgeous-voice (well, i don't know his name but you'll know who i mean) sings 'lonely' in the background like 20 times.

i am in love, peeps.

how any song about having a lonely day could be so infectious. so fun. so catchy.

i have listened to it about. oh. 4 million times in the past 3 days. (although very rarely through to the last second. i'm trying to deal with my playcount issues but. to no avail.)

you will thank me :)

oh, and the rest of the cd is also awesome. a keeper, if you will.

I LOVE you play count issues! Will look for this song soon... I have an iTunes gift card burning a hole in my hard drive.

Emily--Thanks for the baby compliment! I agree--my daughter IS cute, though she pretty much looks nothing like me. It's amazing, though, because I never thought my husband's very UN-feminine genes could create such a pretty little girl.

Your comment was very sweet--I won't even TELL you how many times I've fired off a response to someone thinking, "HA! Take THAT, person with a stupid opinion!!!" only to feel an icky soul-crushing remorse later on. In fact, my last eBay transaction would serve as a perfect example. But I refuse to elaborate because no matter how I tell the story, I will come out looking like a self-righteous JERK in the end! I still cringe over it. Back to my point--I reread my comment on Natalie's blog and thought, "Um...ew. I really DO sound wretched." So--believe it or not, I actually am grateful for this weird, painful, yet totally necessary growing experience! It's the kind of push I need to stop being whiny and get on with life. :)

And yes, that chandelier is totally ROCKIN'.
