Mika, Scissor Sisters, Pink Martini, Travis
I just got back from driving Wallybee around, and was listening to both Scissor Sisters and Mika over the course of the (half-hour) journey. I was in that kind of mood.
I would personally put Kylie Minogue and Robbie Williams on the list, but I'm not sure if they're as accessible to American audiences.
Edit: Maybe some Goldfrapp too.
The Roots!
JZ just discovered the Roots on Yo Gabba Gabba and is loving them.
Incidentally, Weezer will also be on Gabba in the upcoming year.
Not a patch on R.E.M. doing "Shiny Happy Monsters" on Sesame Street but okay.
Did Rilo Kiley also do a Yo Gabba Gabba? I know I've seen an adorable YouTube of Jenny Lewis singing with kids.
I freakin' love The Roots. Also Erykah Badu!
Yup, I love that. In fact, I watched it for the first time with you at megan_walker's!!!
I stopped working just to listen to that again. Because it's just that awesome.
I freakin' love The Roots.
Well they've got a song just for you, your lovely wife and the glam baby.
Roots doing "Lovely, Love My Family" on Gabba.
I looked it up and Jenny Lewis's YouTube is here. It's not Yo Gabba Gabba but it's freaking adorable.
Adorable! Thanks for sharing, Hec. DW has a huge crush on QuestLove - has for years now. What's not to love?
Questo is the bomb. He's the reason I started Tweeting.
Let's see - some stuff I haven't seen mentioned yet: Calexico, Franz Ferdinand, Santagold, Ladytron, Gorillaz, Kaiser Chiefs, Freezepop.
That's off the top of my had of stuff that's been in heavy rotation for me (or at least multiple select songs from each have been).
The new Arctic Monkeys is sticking with me in a way their others didn't.
