Ingrid Michaelson

To celebrate the end of the short month, a short song.

Ingrid Michaelson, who just put out her fifth album isa New York native with a unique, indie style. I love it for it’s simplicity and heartfelt honesty. Her music has been featured on a few different shows including Scrubs, Bones, Grey’s Anatomy and One Tree Hill, and an Old Navy ad.

Mumford and Sons

As a lover of all things great and vintagy, I am sooo in love with Mumford and Sons.

This great group of childhood best friends from London just put out their sophomore album, The Cave. Just 18n months ago, they were a garage band, now they are touring like crazy and selling out shows. They went viral overnight. With a throwback feel, a little bluegrassy with a lot of strumming of banjoes, stand up bass and a dobro, among other instruments.

Definitely worth a quick minute to make your morning brighter.

Christina Perri – Arms

So for Valentine’s Day, here’s my song pic: “Christina Perri – Arms”

This video is hauntingly beautiful!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeW0Sl0tNS8

I never thought that you would be the one to hold my heart
But you came around and you knocked me off the ground from the start

You put your arms around me
And I believe that it’s easier for you to let me go
You put your arms around me and I’m home

How many times will you let me change my mind and turn around?
I can’t decide if I’ll let you save my life or if I’ll drown

I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me ’cause I’m already falling
I’ll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I’m home

The world is coming down on me and I can’t find a reason to be loved
I never wanna leave you but I can’t make you bleed if I’m alone

You put your arms around me
And I believe that it’s easier for you to let me go…

I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me, ’cause I’m already falling
I’ll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I’m home

I tried my best to never let you in to see the truth
And I’ve never opened up
I’ve never truly loved ’til you put your arms around me
And I believe that it’s easier for you to let me go

I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me, ’cause I’m already falling
I’ll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I’m home

You put your arms around me and I’m home
