Under My Covers, Vol. 6

Thank you so much to those who have kept up with me this week in my attempt to churn out all my thoughts into blog form before I depart for a while. This, alas, will be my last *written* post for a while. Remember those video things I was talking about? They start next Tuesday and will last... until they are done. I really don't know how long that will be. But hopefully you enjoy them.

As for other random things going on in my life:

*Going to a concert tonight (surprise, I know). Taking Back Sunday (yet another surprise), but it is at my rival's campus, the University of Alabama. Works out though, cuz we have some friends that made the (dumb) decision to go there. Tomorrow, West Virginia comes here, along with some friends from Montgomery so that should be fun. Then Sunday will consist of reading/NFL football. I love this weekend.

*I have been listening to a lot of random music lately. And a HUGE shoutout to jeanette for hooking me up so much through aim. We've been swapping music like drug dealers and I think I need an intervention. When I return, expect some major music posts.

*I've altered my diet. Not going on a diet, just altered. I realized there is a wedding coming up in December that I kind of want to look good for, so I'm trying a little something. To start off with, I am just cutting out the three worst things I consume -- pizza, doughnuts and sodas. Pizza is the hardest because it is the easiest, and cheapest, thing to eat around here. Wish me luck...

But now, onto the main event. I've noticed that if you want some good covers, just search "Live Lounge" from Radio 1. But don't do that, cuz then I will run out of stuff to surprise you guys with. The original song is by the kooks, and I'm not sure exactly how famous they are. Here, not really. but in other countries I could see the potential. But this song is kind of cool and catchy. But then Lily Allen comes along and just mesmerizes me. I have to admit this -- I'm in love with Lily Allen. I have been since the first day I saw the video for Smile. She is fiery, cute, and I LOVE her accent. I promise I would do stuff to make her mad just so she would yell at me in her accent, and then try my best to make up for it, just so she could be sweet in her accent. Is it bad I've actually thought of these things? Anyways, here is the song, "Naive."

Original Version by the Kooks

Cover Version by Lily Allen

In closing, I just want to say that though I will only be posting videos for a while, I should still be checking in on you guys. Hope you enjoy your weekend, as I should be enjoying mine.
