I found life in the dark...

Press play to hear the song, also, you will need to wait 5 seconds to load the song!

Bear Bones - Diving Bell

Full song:


I realize the video is a little odd. You might ask yourself why the guy who looks a bit like Aaron Rodgers is allowing that bear to dance up on him. He is the lead singer you are hearing, and also they are Scottish, so that can explain most of the weirdness.

This a blog where I will post little snippets of songs that are either in my head, or I feel like they stand out from the entire song (the best of the good).  If we have similar taste in music you will probably enjoy this and hopefully even find some new bands to listen to.
For some back story on this post's song, let me start by saying Chuck, the tv show, has amazing music.  One week there was a song on an episode by Admiral Fallow, a Scottish band with a really cute sound.  I loved the song immediately and started to follow the band on twitter.  Then weeks later, I see that I have a follower request from another band.  After hearing one song, I knew that they were grabbing Admiral Fallow followers and I was happy they were.  I love this band.  They only play in Scotland right now, which is a bummer, but I remember listening to Daphne Loves Derby when they only played in Washington (state) and I eventually saw them play in Rochester.

The clip above is the end of the song, I believe about 3 min in - the entire song is great but there is an intimacy about this last min or so that grabs me every time.  Even while writing this I've listened to it on repeat and see no end in future.  I'll also include an Admiral Fallow song, in case you are really enjoying the sound.
