I Love The Feeling When We Lift Off...

Song Of The Day: Death by White Lies

Just heard this song for the first time on Christmas Eve while watching a cool Youtube compilation of every Hollywood feature film made in 2009 (See Link Below). The video shows clips from each of the 342 movies in a short 7 minutes. Its unusual for me to find multiple songs at the same time that I absolutely love, but from Evermore to Onerepublic to these guys, I guess I've just been lucky lately. They had me from that first big hit. 

It's like what you would get if you made The Killers from England and crossed them with Interpol. I'll tell ya - The UK's got it figured out. For such a small island, they seem to produce a disproportionately large catalogue of fantastic music, or at least big or greatly influential bands: The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Radiohead, Coldplay, Oasis, Pink Floyd, The Who, Muse, Genesis, Elton John, The Police, Queen, Snow Patrol, The Clash, Robbie Williams, The Sex Pistols...

...And U2 is just an island away.


Here's the link to the Youtube movie compilation:
