hip music - jose gonzalez covers the knife’s heartbeats April 23, 2009

Filed under: general, hip culture, hip entertainment, music — admin @ 9:48 am

it’s no secret i love cover songs.

to me, it often turns out that the more the cover version differs from the original, the better. you may have heard jose gonzalez’s great version of Heartbeats, originally by The Knife. have you heard the original? i was prepared to prefer the cover, since it is so beautiful in it’s simple elegance, but i find the original just as captivating, especially when you add the mind-bending video into the equation.

enjoy,
julie

vintage finds monday - sexy vintage! April 20, 2009

Filed under: general, girls clothing, hip clothing, hip style, shop, vintage clothing — admin @ 11:18 pm
it’s time to heat things up.

vintage = variety. there are great vintage pieces that remind you of something your mother or grandmother might have worn, and then, there’s the kind of vintage highlighted in this post. the kind of vintage that grandma might have worn, but those photos didn’t end up in the album that gets passed around on thanksgiving. those photos are all at the bottom of grandpa’s dresser drawer.

now you can inspire a whole new generation with these sexy vintage pieces. after all, some things never change.

ciao,
julie

susan boyle’s very hip rendition of “cry me a river” April 17, 2009

Filed under: general, hip culture, hip entertainment, music — admin @ 6:08 pm
i know you’ve seen her audition for Britain’s Got Talent, but wait until you hear this.

songs from musical theater are not usually my thing, although Susan could probably sing the Mama Mia soundtrack and make it sound heartbreakingly beautiful. but THIS - this is more my style. whether it’s your style or not, well, i’m sure you will still find it heartbreakingly beautiful.

cheers,
julie
