Whoa... this track is unbelievable, and although you'd think that at 5 verses, "Hot Shyt" might be long and overbearing, it's machine-gun like quickness prevents you from doing anything other than hitting the rewind button. Just a great track by Wale and his friends from Philly.
Bowerbirds: "Northern Lights"
This has been circulating for a while now, and it's quite possibly the prettiest song we've heard this year. If it sounds like it was written during a warm, summer night in the Appalachians, well then it very well might've been.
MP3:> Bowerbirds: "Northern Lights"
BBU: "Chi Don't Dance"
BBU stands for Bin Laden Blowin' Up. Now that we have that out of the way, enjoy this infectious proclamation of dance refusal... for those stubborn kids in Chicago won't do it. Juke? Yes. Dance? Hell no.
MP3:> BBU: "Chi Don't Dance"
Free Energy: "Dream City"
If I have to wait for an indefinite amount of time for another LCD Soundsystem album, then I guess I'll have to do with this fantastic band James Murphy just signed to his DFA label. "Dream City" is a throwback, and it's just in time for summer.

Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson: "Winter Song"
This week's most popular audition song for lyrical/contemporary dancers on SYTYCD is actually a Christmas song, but because it's so pretty we'll let it permeate our springtime tunes. Bonus trivia: This song was also performed on another show featured on GSATW - any guesses?
Jason Wade: "You Belong to Me"
Some of my college friends and I like to play a little game called "If I were on American Idol what would I sing?" Since Idol is over, it's time to spread the love to SYTYCD. If I were to audition for the show this year I would definitely choose this tune from the Shrek soundtrack. It's acoustic, sweet and totally evokes emotion that would totally win over Nigel and Mary. Send me straight to Vegas!!
