Giving a shout out for local music:

The Long Winters - "Cinammon" Not the greatest recording, but short of uploading the track myself, it's the best I could do.

And that's against the rules!!!!!!!!

Anyway. I'm a little drunk on Thanksgiving champage and my mom is shouting at the TV for the Packers ... you'll have to forgive me.

But here's a clip. Good stuff - smart pop from Seattle.

Like I said, my favourite hip hop track. This one's got a few memories, both of last summer and of NYC. :love:

I remember the first time I heard it. I had just gotten into a fight over MSN with my (now ex-) girlfriend (she lived in Edmonton for the summer), and it was 4 am and I was depressed as hell. This is just when I was starting to get into hip-hop, but I really had only heard a little Tupac besides what was on BET every day. I turned the TV on and flipped over to Muchmusic and the video for Respiration was on. I couldn't believe it. It blew my mind the first time I heard it, and so I started downloading a lot of Mos Def and Black Star. I'd say Respiration is the track that really got me into good rap.

Then I went to New York. I hadn't realized how true most of those lyrics were until I got there. But shit, I could feel that city breathe, man.

:sigh:

Respiration might just be my favourite song of all time.
