Song of the Week

It all started when I decided that I wanted to catch up on the most recent season of Gossip Girl. Somewhere in the middle of the season, I lost track so I put the season on my Netflix and spent some of last weekend getting current. During one of the episodes, I heard a song that I loved, but didn't recognize the artist. I quickly grabbed my iPad and used the SoundHound app (similar to Shazam) to figure it out.

The results? Dog Days are Over by Florence and the Machine

I bought the track from Amazon and it's been on heavy repeat all week. That's not all--when I'm not listening to it, it's still playing in my head. I admit, I was dancing to it (in my head) a little while waiting at Starbucks.

Then...
I finally watched the VMAs on the Tivo and much to my surprise the very same artist was on the show performing the very same song that I had fallen for just days before AND it was nominated!

Guess I was late to the game, huh?

Anyway, I'm officially dubbing this my "Song of the Week!"
Enjoy.

If it helps, I'm later to the game than you! I'd never heard of this song until reading your post. I love finding new music!
