Since a new year has just recently begun, I just have to share one of my most favorite songs from the year of 2010. I believe it came out in the summer of 2010, but I've been listening to it ever since.
Drum roll, please! (I actually just tried to figure out if there was a way I could type the sounds that a drum roll makes, with no success, of course.)
And the song is ........"Hot N Fun" by N.E.R.D. featuring Nelly Furtado, from their album "Nothing".
I love this song! It's such a fun, upbeat song that will be stuck in your head for days or even weeks as in my case. Though it's a pop/hip-hop type of song, I'm pretty sure that anyone who likes catchy, peppy songs with an awesome beat will find this one a winner. However, it might take some time to grow on some folks who aren't used to listening to such dance-worthy tunes, but once they like it, they soon love it!

New Music (for me anyways) : Pomplamoose
Recently, while watching a YouTube video about makeup, as I often do when I should be doing homework or anything more productive, I heard an awesome song as the intro/background music. Luckily the YouTuber included a link to the YouTube page of Pomplamoose, the artists of said song. I couldn't wait to check out their other songs, I barely finished watching the original video (but, it was a good video so I stayed tuned)!
According to Wikipedia (yes, I know that it's not always completely accurate, but I'll take its word on this)
"Pomplamoose is an American indie music and indie jazz duo consisting of multi-instrumentalists Jack Conte and Nataly Dawn. The band was formed in the summer of 2008.[2][3] The duo sold approximately 100,000 songs online in 2009.[4]"
They apparently first got popular via YouTube & Myspace. Since gaining popularity, their songs have been used for at least a couple of different commercials, specifically car commercials.
I love indie music (a lot of it, not all of it though), so for me, their music is right up my alley! I really suggest you check them out, even if you don't like indie music. They have a unique sound that is quite refreshing. They have their own songs, as well as some terrific cover songs (which I also love), including covers of older songs, such as "Mister Sandman", to new hits, like Beyonce's "Single Ladies" and Lady Gaga's "Telephone". But of course, all of their cover songs have their special Pomplamoose touch. They also have cute and quirky videos for their songs. You've got to check them out!
