"New Girl" theme by Zooey Deschanel

I think I love this show now also, and the theme song continues to be stuck in my head all day after I hear it. "Hey girl, whatcha doin'...Hey girl, where ya goin?" pretty cute indeed. The show is pretty good so far, I love Zooey's character Jess (not so crazy about the roomates though). I get kind of bored whenever they focus on the guy roomates. I feel like they could pretty much replace them with other characters and it wouldn't matter very much (they've actually already replaced the black male roomate with another black male roomate already). They should retool the show to just focus on Jess and it would be perfect, but the show is funny and charming in it's own way. Another winner for this Fall.

"Up All Night..." too funny

This show is so funny to me, it makes me laugh out loud. I think along with "2 Broke Girls," these are my 2 favorite picks of the new Fall shows. This clip is pretty funny (just ignore the foreign subtitles). Christina Applegate, Will Arnett, and Maya Rudolph are all hilariously funny. I liked this show a lot more than I thought I would. Give it a try please.

Bomba Estereo's "Ponte Bomb"


I saw this group perform at ACL on Sunday and they really rocked the house. I had never heard of them before, their live set was pretty good though. They are from Colombia. This video on the other hand is another story. It's so strange, I can't even begin to describe it. The song is a redo of Technotronic's "Pump Up The Jam" from back in the day. It's kind of a hot mess, but I couldn't turn away from it either. Please take a look at this.

Jennifer Lopez's New Fiat 500 Commercial


So J.Lo jumps out of this Fiat 500 and then busts a move with a bunch of peeps on the street. If only we could all do this on a daily basis (I guess you could, but people might look at you kind of weird on the street).

Idle Warship returns with "Laser Beams"


My favorite hip-hop super trio Idle Warship returns with new music Oct. 24th. The trio of Talib Kweli, Res, and Graph Nobel's 2009 free mixtape "Party Robot" was one of the best albums released that year. If their new album is anything like it, it will be thrilling as well. So far, two singles have been released from the upcoming album called "Habits of the Heart". The first was the lukewarm "System Addict" and now we are treated to a brand new single called "Laser Beams." Their music is pretty exciting and blends hip-hop, electonica, rock and soul together in an interesting way. "Party Robot" still continues to be in heavy rotation on my Ipod. Here's a clip of "Laser Beams."

Sade "Love Is Found"



I missed Sade's concert in Austin last night which made me pretty sad. I guess I'll just have to wait another 15 or 20 years for her to come around again. I have seen her twice already in concert, so it's not like I haven't seen her before. I just felt like I couldn't pay that much money for her concert tickets this time(even though I really did want to go). It also doesn't help that everyone keeps telling me how incredible the show was. I'll just watch this live video and listen to her live CD and pretend I was there. Here's a video clip for "Love Is Found."

Erykah Badu, Jaybo, and Miki make music and art



The always creative and incredible Erykah Badu collaborates with artist Jaybo and classical violinist Miki to create beautiful music and artwork. Very interesting to watch. It was interesting to see them all being inspired by one another. Erykah sounds incredible here with the string quartet. See clip below.
