Current favourite Music It has been a while since I was tagged by @melyzard but better late then never. I’m still listening to less music than I used to, but ey slowly getting more again. Specially having really good headphones helps. So here is a list of music I have listend to in the last couple of weeks/months: 1. Florence and the Machine - Dance Fever: The entire album is great and probably my overall favourite FTM album. Cassandra is still my favourite song from the album, but more or less recently I also got fully hit by Morning Elvis. 2. Portishead: I am still working myself through their albums, but for some reason I always thought Beth Gibbons was the singer of Massive Attack and not Portishead. Anyway great music and I had forgotten how much I like trip hop as genre. 3. Speaking of Trip Hop, there is also Faithless. I have mainly listend to Evergreen, because the lyrics: “the quite of winter, birds are calling to me” just is very fitting at the moment. 4. I have to add Leonhard Cohens Avalanche and The Chain by Fleetwood Mac, because I have listend to these songs a lot this year after watching Our Flag Means Death.
5. I was finally able to extend my OC Playlists a bit with ABBA - I am a Marionette, Rüfüs du Sol - On My Knees, the Wombats - Wildfire
6. A while ago I listend to the soundtrack of Need for Speed Underground 2 again. While Riders of the Storm ft. Snoop Dog is the song I will always associate with hours spent tuning my cars and driving around in the rain I want to mention Terror Squad - Lean Back. 
7. Still need to listen to more from Mine. To me she is one of the best german musicians.
8. It is difficult for me to resist good songs about about birds, so Sufjan Stevens - The Lord God Bird about the extinct (?) Ivory Billed Woodpecker makes it onto the list.
9. A music list by me can not be complete without adding some classical music. So lets go with the incredibly depressing, loving and hopeful Requiem for a Friend by Zbigniew Preisner.
10. And because we listend to a lot of “viking” music above the polar circle and there was some playing in the record store I visited yesterday, lets go with with SKÁLD - Rún as an example song. Bonus: some finish humppa, I mean who doesn’t want to listen to a humppa cover of Smells like Teen Spirit? Tagging: @thelightinthesky , @shilothewhite, and @kathastrophen
