music monday: arcade fire


arcade fire came out with a new album a few months ago and their first single 'ready to start' has really been growing on me. at first i thought "yeah, this is alright" which then progressed into "ok, i can relate to this. i like it a little more now" and then "oooooo yes, i like this song". so when i got an email from amazon.com listing their one day only $3.99 albums and saw the arcade fire album was one of them, i instantly clicked purchase. an impulse purchase, like gum by the register. but seriously, $4...worth it. i added 'ready to start' to my current playlist and every time it comes on i get really excited because a) sometimes i still forget it's on there and it's always fun to get a musical surprise and b) it has joined the rank of songs that give me major goosebumps. not to mention, the band did a digital short with the lonely island that was pretty hilarious. bonus! anyway, 'ready to start' is streaming below. listen to it. love it.
