Some random songs I've stumbled across in my iTunes lately

I don't know why I chose to listen to them randomly, and I couldn't even begin to explain where I found them in the first place... some random back corner of the internet.

Any track that questions the fashion choices of hipsters and compares one's girlfriend to a man, well, that's a track for me.

Desmond & The Tutus - Your Girlfriend

Blame my iPod from 2004 for shuffling to this gem while I was driving. According to the YouTube description of the video, the uploader set the song to clips of Orson Welles' film based on The Trial, by Kafka. Now, of course, I want to see this movie.

Josef K - It's Kinda Funny

Alright, I lied: I know exactly where I found this track. Still brilliant. I think my musical tastes are encouraging me to move to 1980s Scotland.

Edwyn Collins - If You Could Love Me (Acoustic)

I think a friend might have sent this to me because the band is from Baltimore...? (Are they from Baltimore? Oh good, Wikipedia says they are.)

Future Islands - Balance

This one is even stranger. Not only do I have no clue where I found it, but I seem to have downloaded the entire English version of the album as well.

Franco Battiato - Una Cellula

This track is not new to me, but I did cross paths with it again recently. It is just good. I absolutely cannot believe that this album was released 10 years ago. I feel old.

Interpol - Leif Erikson

Shall I explain my long absence? Yes, but later.
