The one with Goyte

Over New Years I discovered my new obsession, two separate artist who come together to create one amazing song/video. Goyte is this man who seems tormented within, a depressed singer of ballads who I simply can't get enough of! One of his better known works is "Hearts a Mess". Kimbra, in contrast, is this beautiful, wild woman who sings & dances with free levity. A good example of her work is her song/video "Settle Down". What they do have in common is lovely voices which speak volumes more than the words they pronounce. The song "Somebody that I used to know" is sensational at the least! It's a story, a tragedy, a song which gets trapped in your head. I truly enjoy the Dubstep remix, but the official video is what really brings it all together.

His raw honesty conveyed through his eerily green eyes

Their stark disconnect yet union

There are so much delicious layers to it all!

The one with SugaRush

Today I discovered a brilliant little cupcake shop just down the road from my work! It's called SugaRush & they have entirely made my day! I went in on my break to find an assortment of very tasty looking cupcakes! After choosing the Red Velvet, they took one which was un-frosted, placed it in it's own Chinese-carry-out-style box, iced it fresh, & dashed on some fresh sprinkles! The package could not be beat in charm! The cupcake itself, even had a plaid cupcake wrapper -- cute!

Beyond their brilliant marketing & packaging techniques, SugaRush follows through with their promise of a delightful cupcake. The cake was moist & rich, the frosting slightly tangy, it was a delicious compliment. After my afternoon latte, it was a perfect treat & I'm truly glad I only had one cupcake on hand!! I can't wait to go back & share them with my friends -- get this, the "Cupcake Bar" is open until Midnight Saturdays! Such fun :)

Another simple comfort today, came in the form of first seeing DEV's video for "In the Dark". I've said it over & over, but this lady is under-appreciated. I truly enjoy her work & look forward to the day she sees a little more recognition -- hopefully it won't change her!
