83. Listen to 10 artists I've never heard of

I can't get this song out of my head, so catchy! Even Lydia sings along which is hilarious. So, I'm spreading the earworm!

83. Listen to 10 artists I've never heard of

4/10 Eliza Doolittle.

It's quite possible that everyone else has heard of her and are wondering if I've been living on the moon. I don't get much chance to listen to the radio at home and I used to keep up to date with new stuff at work but now we're not allowed a radio *weep*
Anyway, I read something in a gossip column about Eliza Doolittle (it was the daily mail but keep that to yourselves ok) so I looked her up on We7.com (I've ditched spotify, we7 is much better). It turns out I quite like her. Maybe new music isn't all noise.

83. Listen to 10 artists I've never heard of

Ellie Goulding
I came across her name whilst reading the bbc news website. She's won the BBC's Sound of 2010. Apparently "her "folktronica" sound mixes a traditional acoustic approach with a more cutting-edge electronic style".

I'm starting to think I haven't heard of these people for a reason and I should stick to Girls Aloud!

94. Watch all the upopened dvds I own

Last night I watched Devil Wears Prada. I bought it when it first came out on DVD as I reallyy wanted to see it at the cinema but I didn't have anyone to see it with (what's that I hear? Is it a small violin ;o) ) As with every other DVD I've bought in the last few years it's been on the shelf, unwatched.
I actually really enjoyed it and it was good to turn off the laptop for a while.

83. Listen to 10 artists I've never heard of

A friend suggested that I check out Laura Marling. I looked her up on spotify (how good is that by the way? can't believe I only got it this week). I'm on track 7 and I'm still not sure if I like her or not. I will give her another listen another day, maybe she's a grower.

Please feel free to suggest stuff I might not of heard of. Some of my favorite music has happened on my this way.
