The King And All His Men

So I go on holiday in around 4 weeks, why am I acting cool, 4 weeks Wednesday and I am totally counting!! But, in order to enjoy my holiday to the maximum I have to have an updated Ipod full of a vast variety of genres and tempo's to fulfil my every mood. I have written lists of songs I would like to download and so far I have managed to get lots of random songs through youtube trawls but not an album or set of songs from a particular artist. So i've written a list of Artists that I would like to download a greater amount of songs from. These include - Bombay Bicycle Club, Oasis, Two Door Cinema Club, Ed Sheeran, Maverick Sabre.

Now, this sudden need for alot of effort involving songs/downloading is also due to my terrible neglect of my ipod recently as I've mainly listened to music and the laptop as I've been home alot. But on Saturday I was in the car (not driving may I add) and thought I'd have a listen and I rekindled my love for it. I think there's nothing nicer than watching the world wizz by you whilst listening to your favourite songs, such a good company to my thoughts.
So this leads me to my second 'New Music Monday' post, now this song may not be 'new' to everyone but I have only recently discovered them, so they are indeed new to me. They are Wolf Gang, I found them through Burberry acoustic and have been listening to several of their songs since and really like them.
The King And All His Men
Really like this video, I always like it when music videos are shot in the outdoors, not entirely sure as to why but I do :) I like the girl in the video's style too. Looked into the song a little as was curious as to whether the video had significance to the lyrics, it seems that the girl is running due to possibly being hurt before and he is trying to make it work/prove her that their relationship won't be the same, however as the lyrics say she is in control and the ending of the video where he walks away suggests that he's given up trying to chase her. So there we are, hope you like it!
ooh, and I also recommend:

Burberry Acoustic

On my usual YouTube trawl, I came across Burberry Acoustic and totally fell in love. The songs are just amazing and I wish I'd found them sooner. There's around 35 songs in total and they are as you've probably guessed of an acoustic arrangement. :)
Each video is filmed very similar and they are all suited and booted Burberry style, oh so cool. Wolf Gang with the wayfarer's did make my heart skip.. I love the way they are filmed, each in a different location which is personal to the band/singer (also another thing I love as it gives the songs a really intimate feel)
My personal faves are Misty Miller's 'Remember' - she is absolutely adorable and her song is so girly with her little ukulele, I just cannot get enough! Also love One Night Only's 'Chemistry' - plus they are up north and I've met him once but yes I was the one that the photographer cut out of the photo... Not happy, although at least my arm managed to participate..
Pegasus Bridge, Bobby Long and Wolf Gang are but a few other gems. I love how suddenly from finding this its lead me to so many bands I'd never even heard of that are just so good. Such a satisfying feeling when you find so many new songs, all going straight to the Ipod!
I'll link the videos below so you can check them out for yourself. Let me know what you think, see if you love them as much as I do! :)
