only you can stop this stut-stut-stut-stuttering

commercials always seem to have the best music. here's some of my favorite songs in commercials currently running:

the first is in the commercial for the new ford edge.



---> the funeral - band of horses <---

next is from the dentyne ice commercial.



---> stuttering - ben's brother <---

this one is from various commercials for the zune mp3 player.



---> lake michigan - rogue wave <---

and last but not least from the new apple macbook air.



---> new soul - yael naim <---

can you feel the knife?

so grizzly bear is easily one of my favorite bands currently making music. i bought their new ep and got it last week. it is pretty much as amazing as i thought it would be. it's got a few new versions of songs from yellow house and some damn good covers by css, band of horses and atlas sound. as well as a truly beautiful recording of dan rossen singing "deep blue sea." apparently it was recorded at his home. his voice is so pure. the album also has a studio version of their cover of the crystal's "he hit me (and it felt like a kiss)" which up til now was only availble as a daytrotter session or live.

thus i give you:

---> he hit me <---

---> knife - css <---

you can buy the ep here. i reallllly want to get it on vinyl!
