Alright – Sydney Wayser

If you like singers like Feist or Cat Power BOY are you in for a treat!! ;p. Seriously though, everytime this song comes on I try to guess who the singer is and I always think it’s Feist! Crazy! She’s got a beautiful voice and this song is REALLY catchy!

Fun Fact: Sydney is French-American (from NY), her father is a songwriter, and her musical influences include – Edith Piaf (LOVE), Charlotte Gainsbourg (LOVE), and Jacques Brel (no clue who that is but I am sure I’d love them too!).

Love For: Warm Bodies

Rarely do I get out of a movie and want to run home and blog about it but this time around I just couldn’t help myself!!! Ever since I saw the trailer for Warm Bodies I started counting down the days until it came out.

R is not like the other zombies though, he wants more out of life than wandering around grunting and eating humans. During a trip the zombies take to sniff out some humans to eat, they find a group of teens in a pharmacy and go to town. This is when R meets Julie (played by Teresa Palmer) who is the daughter of the leader of the humans. He takes her back to the airport and he starts to ‘thaw out’ and become more human as the movie goes on. I’m not going to spoil the rest but it had an awesome ending! This is coming from someone who really doesn’t care for anything that has to do with zombies (no Walking Dead for me). Aside from the awesome story there was another HUGE pro to this movie: (after the jump) Continue reading
