High Fidelity - The 1975

I am currently enthralled with this band. They are a Manchester, England based alternative rock band and are relatively new to the US charts (heck, they only hit the UK charts starting in 2012).  You might be familiar with the song "Chocolate" if you scored the free download that was available a couple of weeks ago on iTunes. 

I hope the US market embraces them like how they latched on, almost overnight, to the Imagine Dragons (see High Fidelity post about them before they hit it big here).  

The 1975's debut album is scheduled to drop on September 2, 2013 - I can't wait to hear it.

Parenting - you're doing it right

Love this!  All the kids are awesome, but there is something about the little freckled girl in the turquoise dress that I just love.  

To the parents of these awesome kids - kudos for raising such conscientious, caring and open-minded children.  Nice to see a bit of positivity after the past few days!

Moments

30 Photos That Capture the Best Moment's of People's Lives (clicky)


These are wonderful.  Joy in picture form. And I love how so many of them aren't necessarily all about them (meaning the person who tweeted them) but about the people they love.  

If I were choosing my top moments (so far) they would be meeting my precious niece seven years ago and the day this past December when I (FINALLY) graduated from college.  


Isn't she adorable?  

Finally got that B.A.!




Here's hoping there are more moments like those people posted.  Proposal, marriage, babies, graduating kids, time spent with grandchildren...


What would be your best moment?

High Fidelity - Ray LaMontagne

This man's voice is pure magic. No more words necessary, his music speaks for itself.


Let It Be Me



I Still Care For You


If I ever get married, I would be a very, very tempted to use this next song for our first dance.  


You Are The Best Thing



And this one just touches my soul. No other way to describe it really, other than in typical Sara-speak... it makes me *squishy*.

Be Here Now (Live)
