The National - Santa Clara

And I'm gonna miss you so much.

Overheard in: Capogiro's

Love Paris (from Cliente)

I skipped class on Monday to spend a rainy afternoon downtown, eating chocolate ice cream and watching movies from the Philadelphia Film Festival :) One I watched was Cliente, a French film about a married male gigolo involved with a wealthy cougar. Hilarity ensued, of course... but had its serious bits too what with the deception and the toying with emotions, and this is where this song comes in.

My retention of high school French was enough to find this video but not enough to find the lyrics :P Oh and just for kicks here's the rap song from the film... hahaha. For some reason rap in other languages doesn't sound quite as badass :P

Inara George - Fools in Love

I need some metaphorical superglue.

Gregory and the Hawk / Kina Grannis - Boats and Birds

The first video is the original from Gregory and the Hawk, the second is a cover by YouTube celebrity Kina Grannis. I listened to the original nonstop during a tumultuous sophomore year so I hold it very close to my heart -- but the cover is so enchanting, I *almost* like it better. Almost.

Sufjan Stevens - Casimir Pulaski Day

All the glory when you ran outside
With your shirt tucked in and your shoes untied
And you told me not to follow you...

The Shins - New Slang

You gotta hear this one song. It'll change your life, I swear. - Sam, Garden State

Ryan Adams - Wonderwall

All the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
But I don't know how

Because maybe... you're gonna be the one who saves me
And after all... you're my wonderwall

edit: i reallyreallycannot stop listening to this song. reasons for this would be (1) i'm learning it on the guitar :D (2) i keep flashing back to the seth/summer scene in season 1 (3) it's so damn beautiful yo

Death Cab for Cutie - A Lack of Color

And when I see you, I really see you upside-down.
