the first.

I had a foreign exchange student at my school this past year and after hugging him he said "You are the Feerst." No one could understand what he was saying through his thick Finnish accent. My friend though he was saying I was the fiercest person. But I was his first hug in America :]

Now here's the "feerst" playlist.

1. Oh No- Andrew Bird

I Throughly enjoy the "so let's get out of here.." part. Reminds me of floating away..

2. Help I'm Alive- Metric

The vocals rock on this song-strong and soft.

3. Nikorette- Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band

Fun, bouncy, happy song sung by a cutie!

4. Art Brut- Alcoholics Unanimous

Makes me visual a rebellious British Man.

5. French Navy- Camera Obscura

Makes me fly off to Cloud 9!

6. I'm Sorry Baby, But You Can't Stand in My Light Anymore- Bob Mould

Strong Ballad like song.

7. Now We Can See- The Thermals

I love love love the beginning vocals!

8. Sabali (Paul Epworth Mix)- Amadou and Mariam

So different so tribal so perfect.

9. Get Ready For Love- The Alrights

Quirky and Indie. Just the way I like 'em!

10. No Wedding Cake- Fol Chen

Simply Amazing.

11.(I couldn't pick just 10!)  Manhattan- Kings of Leon

The Followill Brother's could serenade me any day!

12.  The Rake's Song- The Decemberists

I just love their sound and vocals and everything!

13. Ain't No Rest For The Wicked-Cage the Elephant

Such a great song, so upbeat- I love singing along

14. Hysteric- Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Karen O is inspiring for all women.

All of these songs I discovered through my favorite radio station 89.3 The Current. Tune in if you are in the Minnesota area or listen online at thecurrent.org.
