[Purity Ring - Grammy](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SZ0gF7Fu0M) It’s a cover of a Soulja Boy song, if you can believe it. Quite possibly the best rap-to-pop conversion ever. ---

Some Nights by Fun just hooked me yesterday when I was watching an SNL rerun. It’s probably the first song to do that for me in years. I was sad to realize that the rest of their music sounded exactly the same, but that song did just catch me in the right mood. ---

In the hinterlands of Swedish pop music (started with a song by The Knife, then clicked through related videos) on Youtube I found: [“goods” by iamamiwhoami](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3G_Y3aIlis) All the videos are a bit odd, but the music is candy for my brain. ---

[If You See My Baby](http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=um3IiMFvlT4&feature=fvwp) by Soulmate, a Blues band from…are you ready for this? India! This band is fantastic and the lead singer Tiptri Kharbangar is 100 per cent pure unadulterated sex appeal. I would quit my job, leave my wife and children, and crawl over 40 miles of broken beer bottles just to kiss her feet!
