Mike Hadreas of Perfume Genius totally kills me. I discovered his tender and heartfelt music via one of my favorite music blogs, La Blogotheque. They make these really beautiful videos that help me fall even more in love with the sweet ass music they post.
Okay, do me a favor...turn on your favorite mellow love song - or song for getting down...then watch this video on mute. It is perfectly styled (Joe Jonas all grown up).
This has been my all time favorite soul song since I was a kid. Smoky's version will always be my favorite, but today I'm jamming to some other favorite artists that have covered this classic.
The OG - Smoky Robinson 1965
Linda Ronstadt, I love her...I listen to this one on vinyl whenever I can.
Dolly's cover she did in 2008.
Gavin Degraw did a rad mashup of Tracks and another favorite, Cupid by Sam Cooke.
And sorry, but who doesn't love a little BoysIIMen (ABC, BBD)
I've posted about Jeana's Sohn's amazing photography blog, Closet Visit before. Her photography of outstanding closets and the women behind them lead her into another adventure...short films.
Enjoy her second film, Matilde. Starring the simply beautiful Matilde Riccardi as the almost, "little red riding hood" or "alice in wonderland" of the story. It's dreamy and makes me wish I could live in a world of clothes and sweets if not for forever at least for a little while.
My old roomies are totally rockin' it with the Beehive Tutorial that Libby did as a guest post for for my girl Ash of We Are Electricity. Ash does regular Tuesday Tutorials that are totally rad - last week's was printing on fabric!
