What I lack in pictures, I'll make up for in words. She & Him. Honestly this was such a good show. A real talented band playing instruments, Zooey's singing, Matt's shredding. The whole band definitely took all the original songs up a notch like adding an extra melody or something to the end so it doesn't end so suddenly.
M. Ward on guitar - SWOON. The man plays his guitar licks so well and when he sings...mMMMM. That deep, scratchy, hoarse voice. A man who can sing and play the guitar is definitely sexy. And let's not forget Zooey. She is just amazing! I still can't believe I was a few feet away from her. She is just as gorgeous as she is on screen. She was so cute & fun throughout the entire show. During parts of the song where she didn't sing, she'd jump around merrily & shake her tambourine. At some point, she showed her frustration towards her piano due to it being out of tune. If only I took a video of what she said. So cute! She even called it 'he' and would make remarks like, "He's being bad tonight."
They did a mix of songs from both albums. I loved the way they performed songs from Volume One. They really picked up the pace to Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?, Sentimental Heart and I Was Made For You. And In The Sun was the best! I knew that would be the best song to sing along to. And they even did a cover of Rick Nelson's version of Fools Rush In. And the last song of the encore. That was the sexiest, most powerful cover of I Put A Spell On You. Matt & Zooey singing to each other. UBER SEXY. GAH!! That's what I love. Good guitar playing, soulful singing -pure & legit. LOVE IT. Now I want live versions to their songs...
Ok enough of my ramblings :)
I can see why YouTube took this video down. But it does bring attention to a serious issue (targeted minorities...not the gingers). Although in the UK, gingers have it bad than here in the US. All in all, pretty intense video but it was shot & put together well.

PS Thank you Ariel for showing me this ♥
Even though I've been listening to Lily Allen's new album all day, I felt the need to put up The Kills Black Balloon.
PS I'm excited for the movie Tokyo.
Check out the trailer at my friend Ariel's blog :)

I like what this guy said.
*hands heart on a plate to girl* "It's actually yours now. I don't know why it works this way but I'm never gonna be able to get over you and so from now on, every girl that I meet will be meticulously compared to you and unfortunately, none of them will be able to measure up to the false memory of what you and I once 'had'."
