Regina Spektor, great voice. Some of her stuff is a bit odd but I like it overall.

Regina Spektor is great, I saw her play in Belfast last year, her voice is astonishing.

Refused - New Noise

This is from their album "The Shape of Punk to Come". There's this and maybe 2 other songs that are great, the rest are fair at best. Probably won't be most people's cup of tea, but this whole thread is about trying new stuff!

Rehab - Sittin at a Bar

My friends and I have listened to this song pretty regularly for the past 6 or so years. This is a song that never gets old and it pretty good for almost any situation. Though a bunch of people drunk singing to this is probably what it's best for.

I tried to get in to Ray Lamontagne, his voice is great, but it just never clicked with me. I did like it, I just didn't love it.

Check out "Pony up - The truth about cats and dogs (is that they die)" and "Au Revoir Simone - Sad song" for two cool songs i randomly heard and liked this week

Aberfeldy - Love is an Arrow

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziaHHPLnLT4

Video has nothing to do with Gamerz (the movie you should have all seen by now!)

If you liked that one, here's another Aberfeldy song - Tom Weir (also from Gamerz - played during credits)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyRo6lvPlQY

Who's tom Weir? Nick, you know? He's from Scottland. That's kinda close to you!

audio kinda out of sync, here's lyrics for second song

Tom Weir, Tom Weir
Plus-fours and a wee woolly hat
Three cheers for Tom Weir
Tom Weir, king of the anoraks, the anoraks, the anoraks
The anoraks, the anoraks, the anoraks

Tom Weir, balladeer
Musketeer, always up for the crack
Three cheers, Tom Weir
Tom Weir, king of the anoraks, the anoraks, the anoraks
The anoraks, the anoraks, the anoraks

His trousers indicated
He was sadly dislocated from the future.
Discussing history
With a Weegie or a Fifer or a Teuchter

Free beer for Tom Weir
Tom Weir and his wee canvas sack.
Three cheers, Tom Weir
Tom Weir, king of the anoraks, the anoraks, the anoraks
The anoraks, the anoraks, the anoraks

His red nose manifested
Many years had been invested in the bevvy (hic).
From Eigg to Rum and Coll
With double single malt and a wee heavy

Free gear for Tom Weir
Tom Weir and his wee woolly hat
Three cheers, Tom Weir
Tom Weir, king of the anoraks, the anoraks, the anoraks
The anoraks, the anoraks, the anoraks
The anoraks, the anoraks, the anoraks
The anoraks, the anoraks, the anoraks

My Bloody Valentine - Soon

Jeff Buckley- Everybody here wants you. Yes omg he sang songs other than Hallelujah from the shrek soundtrack. I think this one is meant for love making.

Pretty much. Anders Trentemøller is a rising star on the electronica scene, he's done a ton of stuff over the past six years. This remix is done with Ane Trolle who's also a bit of a fast riser.

fake edit: http://www.myspace.com/trentemoeller

If you like these sounds, take a look at Future3, Opiate (aka Thomas Knak who produced for Björk on Vespertine), Jet, Acustic or DubTractor - especially the Future3 album called 'Like'. Oh and if you've got badass intarwebz access or an awesome recordstore near you, see if you can find the old electronica compilation called Boredom Is Deep And Mysterious.
