Music Monday - The Lumineers "Same Old Song"

Completely missed that The Lumineers had a new album out.

Instead the usual music monday post, I just grabbed a few songs that I am dying over right now.  Some are new, some are old, all are much loved by me.  Enjoy!

The Lumineers "Ho Hey" -- Love their album

Mumford & Sons "Ghosts that We Knew" -- Been obsessing over the new album, but especially this song

Flogging Molly "Float" -- Love love love this song, especially live

Of Monsters and Men "King and Lionheart" -- My other current album obsession

Fuel "Million Miles" -- Oldie that I rediscovered in my cd box. Saw them live ~2004, great show.

Jason Mraz "No Doubling Back" -- Especially love the live album.

Jamie Cullum "Blame it on My Youth" -- Awesome song!

Music Monday -- The Lumineers "Stubborn Love"

I know their song "Ho Hey" is huge right now.  And I dearly love it.  But since I've already featured it twice on my blog, I thought I would highlight my second favorite song on the album.  For your pleasure, a tale of crazy irrational love...

Lyrics (my favorite lines in bold):

She'll lie and steal and cheat, and beg you from her knees Make you thinks she means it this time She'll tear a hole in you, the one you can't repair But I still love her, I don't really care

When we were young, Oh Oh, we did enough When it got cold, Ooh Ooh, we bundled up I cant be told, Ah Ah It cant be done

It's better to feel pain, than nothing at allThe opposite of love's indifference Pay attention now, I'm standing on your porch screaming out And I wont leave until you come downstairs

So keep your head up, keep your love keep your head up, my love [x2] Keep your head up, keep your love

I don't blame ya dear for running like you did, all these years I would do the same, your best believe The highway signs say we're close, but I don't read those things anymore I never trusted my own eyes

When we were young oh oh, we did enough When it got cold, Ooh ooh we bundled up I can't be told, Ah ah, can't be done

So keep your head up, keep your love keep your head up, my love [x2] keep your head up, keep your love
