Une tasse et une chanson

My mum's up visiting this weekend which means I actually get proper coffee this morning without having to go down to Starbucks in my pyjamas (this is semi-acceptable here with emphasis on the semi judging by some of the looks I'm liable to receive when I venture out like that).
It also means that my Saturday morning soundtrack must have cross generational appeal. In other words: chanteurs.

Beirut ❤ Postcards From Italy
Jacques Brel ❤ Les Vieux
Edith Piaf ❤ Hymne a l'amour

Recessionista

Ok so maybe you had to have a little money beforehand to be a Recessionista but I've never had to do this before: I raided the copper jar for pancake supplies!
It takes a while to buy eggs and Nutella with 2cent pieces I'm telling you.
Thankfully this was available for free download on LastFM:

The Indelicates et al - The Recession Song

In honour of my lazy Sunday I'm uploading some of my favourite covers.
We are Scientists - Hoppipolla (Sigur Ros cover)
Kate Nash - I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance with You (Black Kids cover)
James Morrison - Sex on Fire (Kings of Leon cover)
Jack Penate - 1234 (Feist cover)

"it takes more than fucking someone to keep yourself warm"

I am a terrible person and an obsessive shuffler so given that I just listened to their entire album the whole way through, twice, you can be sure that Frightened Rabbit are doing something right.

I'm not actually sure what they're doing but it seems to be putting me in the mood to get my Converse on and go mess about in some fields. This is not the kind of mood one needs to be in on at midnight in snowy February.
