School of Seven Bells: Disconnect From Desire

School of Seven Bells: <i>Disconnect From Desire</i>

Nostalgia done right The only thing more difficult than telling someone you’re in love with them is telling someone that you used to be in love with them.

Songs to Do Nothing To: The Motion Picture Soundtrack to Lazy

Guess who's feeling unmotivated? This guy! Sometimes, though, it's fun to channel an apathetic mood into something productive. A soundtrack to lazy, as it were. The key here is to ignore what the song is actually about (listening requires motivation), choosing instead to base its inclusion off the title alone. Have a look at the list below (which I'm capping at 15, since any more than that would be too much work), click where applicable to hear the track and feel free to post your favorite lethargic lyrics, tired tunes, melodies of malaise and sleepy song choices in the comments....  read more
