let's make it a great night

light of my life

let go of the rope

if beauty is a crime

how do you sit still?

a radiohead long-lost track. merry christmas.

illusions fade when feelings rise

it's the holidaze

i want you right here with me

don't let it fool you

time still going by

just a matter of time

error 404

FreeLoader - Mind Rhythm (HKAY Remix) by jameshk

won't give you my heart

no need to be greedy

Nightcalling Big Poppa by Vico Ono

you know what i am

who would ever think

For your viewing pleasure: a vivid new video for “Full Spectrum,” a single from Zilla Rocca’s latest EP, Nights and Weekends, released by World Around Records. The song features a superb verse from fellow Wrecking Crew member and Mello Music Group artist Has-Lo, who’s been having a banner year, dominated by the release of his widely acclaimed (XXL, OkayPlayer, URB) album In Case I Don’t Make It. The chemistry between the two emcees shines on this track, produced by Boston-based beatsmith Dr. Quandary. Zilla Rocca wanted a distinctive look for this video, so this summer he raised the funds via Kickstarter to it shoot on actual Super8 film with directors Joe Castro & Justin Clowes. The result is a gritty, eye-popping video that perfectly compliments an exceptional single.

shake your hips

how come you never go there

that's what it seems

i knew that i'd be back soon

g_eazy. yes.

she started dancin' to that fine fine music

suppose we never fell in love

,

watch me giggle

it was all a dream

sweet lovin' at midnight

scale it back

i like to keep some things to myself

it's been a sweet love

live and let die

and we believed her then

you don't have to live with that frown

it's strange what desire will make foolish people do

big ups to @vanityproject_j for introducing me to coeur de pirate!

keep calm and carry on

brand new from the asteroids galaxy tour.

fun.

i will stay here

maybe it's someone standing in the killers place

Sundown in the Paris of the prairies
Wheat Kings have all their treasures barried
All you hear are the rusty breezes
Hanging around the weather vane Jesus

In a zippo lighter you see the killer's face
Maybe it's someone standing in the killers place
Twenty Years for nothing well that nothing new
Besides no one is interested in what you didn't do
Wheat Kings and pretty things,
Lets just see what the morning brings

There's a dream he dreams where the high school is dead and stark
It's a museum and we're al locked up and after dark up in it and after dark
Where the walls are lined all yellow gray and sinister
Hung with pictures of our parents prime ministers
Wheat Kings and pretty things,
Lets just see what the tomorrow brings

Late breaking story on the CBC,
A nation whispers "we always know he'd go free"
They add "you can't be fond of living in the past,
Cause if you are then there is no way you are going to last"
Wheat Kings and pretty things,
Lets just see what the morning brings
Wheat Kings and pretty things,
Thats what the morning brings

visions, they fall apart

waving my arms trying to reach for the ground

beautiful. amazing. awesome.

tell you what i'm gonna do

you turn me on

We can talk all night, we can talk all day
We can play charades when there is nothing to say
You turn me on to the idea of growing old

I can make you angry you can make me a smile
We can make origami with the kids for a while
You turn me on to the idea of growing old

Now it wont be long
No, it wont be long
You turn me on to the idea of growing old

We can lay around and count the number of times
I've acted foolish and you've rolled your eyes
You turn me on to the idea of growing old

You in your kerchief, and me in my cap
We can settle down for an afternoon nap
You turn me on to the idea of growing old

Now it wont be long
No, it wont be long
You turn me on to the idea of growing old

♥

Drop It like a Ghostwriter by Vico Ono

cause he's better than the rest

circle the world

do away with the nonsense

in me you can confide

Let me be your everlasting light
The sun when there is none
I'm a shepherd for you
And I'll guide you through
Let me be your evelasting light
Let me be your everlasting light
I'll hold and never scold
In me you can confide
When no one's by your side
Let me be your everlasting light
Oh darling, can't you see
I'm shining just for you
Loneliness is over
Dark days are through
Let me be your everlasting light
A train going away from pain
Love is the coal
That makes this train roll
Let me be your everlasting light

shout when you wanna get off the ride
