The Motion Sick — The truth will catch you, just wait...

Those familiar with the band's previous effort, Her Brilliant Fifteen, will find this familiar territory for the Motion Sick; their lyrics are eloquently straightforward and occasionally incorporate snappy wordplay.

Best of

igAsh's favorite songs of 2007, with {some} free downloads!

I made a 'Best of '07' compilation for coworkers and thought I'd share my picks with you, in no particular order. Hope you've got a little time to spare!

All downloads have been posted with permission from the bands themselves. Thanks bands!

1. Nicole Atkins and the Sea: "The Way It Is"

I think this is my favorite song of the year. Here's the clip from Letterman.

2. Peter Bjorn and John: "Young Folks"

I'm such a sucker for whistling. And isn't this the most visually satisfying video ever.
