It is my understanding that The four Season’s switch to disco-ey tunes was generally frowned upon. That is a shame.

Videos from Histoire De Melody Nelson

Right after buying Histoire De Melody Nelson I saw that soul sides posted these videos from the album. Nice coincidence:
Top 10 NBA Facial Dunks of 2007
December 30, 2007 – 2:17 am
I just went to YouTube to be greeted by this:
Oooo I love their choice for #1. Lebron at #2 is incredible too. This was technically 2007, but probably missed the editing deadline, and I think should be included:
Albums I Bought in The Past Two Days
December 30, 2007 – 2:06 am
At Silver Platters or Amazon Mp3:
1. Elton John: Tumbleweed Connection - Bought on a whim as a result of this post. The cashier (who was kind of like Doc mixed with Elvis Costello) was pleased though, so I expect it won’t let down.
2. Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons: The Definitive Pop Collection - This [...]
Holy Ghost: “Hold On”
December 26, 2007 – 12:17 am
I know this has been up all over the place for a while now but I just finished listening to on headphones after being outside in the cold (it snowed today) and for whatever reason it sounds just amazing. Like if Junior Boys did a disco track.

Cornelius/No Age: “Fit Song”/”Live at Other Music” (Video)

Everything is incredibly intricate and stimulates my senses, but rather than indulge me with any one thematic component, the video [...]
Recap
December 23, 2007 – 3:59 am

Beach House: “Gila” and “D.A.R.L.I.N.G”
December 11, 2007 – 5:34 pm
Everyone is posting this for good reason. Absolutely beautiful - the vocals harmonies in the background roll over you like a acoustic tidal wave. I can’t say how much I love Beach House - their sound is just so on point. I specifically appreciate their use of old Casiotones (or at least what sounds like [...]
The Scene
December 5, 2007 – 11:49 pm
Sarah likes Sydney the best. I like the dude right ager (Han Solo-y?). “I’m Ready” also happens to be the bomb. I love when it kicks off “Never Scared” (via MFR).
Cool Bikes in the Snow
December 5, 2007 – 11:11 pm
Here is some video of some peeps playing around on fixies in the snow. I just broke my wrist on my bike, but I still wanna get back out there and do stuff like this. Someday (via TR).
