1. thesmithian: If you would guess the first Asian or Asian American music act to make the…Hot 100, you might think of Jay Sean, Bruno Mars, or the Far East Movement, but the earliest I know about is The Rocky Fellers, whose hit Killer Joe reached 16 on the…Hot 100 in 1963. more, plus clips, here.

  4. Michael Jackson - Bad (kids version) 

    I CANNOT HANDLE HOW GREAT THIS IS. (Also, the hilarious 5 o’clock shadows some of these 8 year olds have.)

    Kishi Bashi - Manchester

    oh hello,
    will you be mine?
    I haven’t felt this alive in a long time
    all the streets are warm and grey

    I read the signs
    I haven’t been this in love in a long time
    the sun is up the sun will stay
    all for the new day
    will you be mine?
    the days are short and I wrote me my last rhyme
    all the streets are warm today.

    Kishi Bashi’s bandcamp is here

    So I’m completely in love with Kishi Bashi. I haven’t been able to listen to anything else in the past couple of days.

    Reminds me of Love is Strange by Mickey & Sylvia (so I love it).

    Karen O - “Strange Love”

    Just looked at the tracklisting for the Frankenweenie soundtrack and it looks so great! (Though Winona Ryder, really? But I’ll reserve judgment until I hear it.)

    You Belong With Me/Pumped Up Kicks Mash Up

    i love how both songs become extra creepy

    like complimentary colors get brighter when you put them together
