Song of the Day - City and Colour

So I'm headed south tomorrow for the Coachella festival. One thing you may or may not know about me is that music festivals are my grown-up version of Disneyland. I remember being a child on summer vacation at Disneyland, where I experienced such sensory overload that I felt my head might actually explode from all of the excitement. A great deal of squealing and screaming and jumping up and down was surely involved. A festival generates a similar sentiment for me now. The energy is just crazy good and there is more music than I could ever possibly take in all at once, and yes, head explosion indeed seems like a very distinct possibility when I'm there.

So, I'm off to play in my own equivalent of a fantasy land here on Earth with some of my favorite people. Lovin my life.

This guy will not be at Coachella and has nothing to do with the festival as far as I know; but this song came on randomly on the Passion Pit station on Pandora today and I kinda liked it. Every girl in the world should be so lucky as to have some musician who is entirely unworthy of her love write an "I-know-I-don't-deserve-to-be-your-man-but-please-love-me-anyway" song for her. And then when he does, the girl should thank him for the gesture, and immediately dump his ass.
