EK5 with DJ Kwokodile 3/12/12

WOOHOO! Yay for EK5! I had a revoultionary idea! I can do an EK5! I will post it twice a week! EK5 will come out on Friday! This is a very much influenced week of covers and alternative. My internet isn't functioning  that well, so no more youtube links.

1. [Ironic] - Alanis Morissette
I first heard this song via The Voice  by Jordis Unga vs. Brian Fuente. I was blown away by the lyrics and I wanted to hear the real version, and it turned out to be better! The lyrics are so clever because they are so funny! Ex. Mr. Play-It-Safe was afraid to fly, he packed his suit case and kissed his kids goodbye, He waited his whole dang life to take that flight. And as the plane crashed down he thought, "Well isn't this nice." ROFL haha I love it such a funny song! Love 90s music :)

2. [Ironic] - Jordis Unga
She totally didn't have as much recognition for this song she covered. She totally was nervous, but she deserved the win. Jordis was on a rocker show and to see her on The Voice is a great experience. She does have a lot of power to this song.

3. [Dreams Like Oceans] - Meg & Dia
This song blew me away. I heard a flute cover of this song, and I was like HECK YES! I listened to it and I fell in love instantly with oh oh oh oh oh oh part. That is so awesome! Meg & Dia is my favorite band and this song  just shows their range, from rock to indie to alternative. It is so good!

4. [Say Aah] - Lindsey Pavao
She's battling tonight :) She is against Lee Koch and she is going to oust him! I really like this song, because I remember the rap version of that. I liked it a lot and I thought the way she did the song was even better than the rap. That usually is the case, and I felt that she really showed her indie roots! Yay for Indie songs!

5. [Bullseye] - Dia Frampton
Dia was my favorite from last season if y'all didn't already know. I was really upset that she lost, but she has sold more albums than Javier and has more facebook likes so YAY! Xenia has both of them beat, but I'm not mad, well maybe, but I love her as well because her voice is so unique. When I found out that Isabella Summers, Florence + The Machine, I was so excited, at first I didn't like the song, but after a couple months, I totally love it. I was more into poppish stuff back then, but now I like alternative music a little more, so Bullseye is totally an awesome alternative song.

Lots of Indie tonight :) Love Indie well looking forward for next playlist this Friday. I guarantee that Charlotte Sometimes will be on this list!
