Just fucking heart-stoppingly awesome

Episode #16.2: Allo Darlin - "Kiss Your Lips" from Off The Beaten Tracks on Vimeo.

Every year, they ask us KUCI DJ folks to write "Top 5" lists for the program guide and website and such. Sadly, I hadn't heard Allo Darlin's 2010 album when I made mine, or it'd have definitely been on there. So I'm making sure you know about it now and that you, like I, fall in love with it.

It's just...that perfect pop. Music you just want to huge the hell out of with great lyrics and a sweet disposition. If you like this half as much as I do, you like it an awful lot.

In fact, I'm just gonna keep posting songs until you love them. Here's another jam.


That one features a lyric that really resonates with me:
"And though you say we’re just friends and that this love is purely platonic/
I’m hoping that you’ll forget after this round of gin and tonic."

You get me, pop music. You really get me.
