It’s that time of year. The time when everyone angrily shoves each other out of the way to snag the last Tickle-Me-Elmo. The time when you have a plethora of holiday parties to attend and completely abandon your workout regime. The time…okay, I’m done being Scrooge now. While the stress of the holidays gets to … Continue reading

Song of the day: “All the Pretty Girls” – fun.
Let’s see what fun. has lined up for me, shall we? (Before anyone asks…yes, they spell it “fun.” Lowercase with a period.) Harmonies? Check. Strong guitar? Check. An ability to hit the high notes? Check again. And then, “All the Pretty Girls” was named song of the day. I was sold from the acapella intro. … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Tonight’s the Night” – Outasight
After a week of working and the onset of winter weather, picking a Friday appropriate song for today’s song of the day was beyond necessary. However, seeing as I hate all things techno (peace, love and instruments forever), finding a relevant song of the day that most people would deem “Friday worthy” was a bigger … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Rumour Has It/Someone Like You” – Glee Cast Version
Today’s song of the day was a pretty quick find. Since my life on Tuesdays at 7pm is dedicated to Glee, finding this song took absolutely no effort at all. I’d go so far as to say it fell into my lap. I didn’t have to dig, prod, click around or even touch my headphones. … Continue reading
Song of the day: “We Found Each Other in the Dark” – City and Colour
As much as we might like to base our view of love off of the countless chick flicks that we’ve all seen, finding love isn’t always as simple (or perfect) as Hollywood leads us to believe. Finding someone may not happen during the height of your happiness, while wearing your best outfit, surrounded by your … Continue reading
Song of the day: “It Will Rain” – Bruno Mars
I’ve had the title of this song written on a post-it stuck to my desk for about a month now. Without fail, it seemed to get covered up by pieces of paper, magazines, more post-its and whatever else weasels its way onto the gray green surface of my desk. Today, it was uncovered again and … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Fix You” – Javier Colon
I have a problem, and I’m ready to admit it. When I don’t completely “get” a musicians fame, I make it clear. (Sorry to all members of the Dave Matthews cult…no matter how hard you try, no matter how much you explain the experience, no matter how many sax solos you try to talk about, … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Your Hand in Mine” – Explosions in the Sky
Just a short time ago, tragedy struck when the stage set for Sugarland collapsed in Indiana, killing five people. Today, a stage set for the Pukkelpop festival in Belgium has also collapsed, with four dead thus far. Initially, I wanted to feature a Smith Westerns song after I was told they were due to take … Continue reading
Song of the Day: “Not Over You” – Gavin DeGraw
The recently attacked Gavin DeGraw has been through a lot lately. Getting jumped in New York City resulted in the cancellation of some of his shows so he could properly recover. Luckily, I know just what he needs: a song of the day feature. Sure, I’ve heard this a time or two, and may have listened … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Time Bomb” – All Time Low
Look out, kids, history is about to be made. I rarely feature a pop-punk song on Haute Thought because, well, I thought I graduated from that style of music the second I was handed my high school diploma and stopped my love affair with Laguna Beach (may it rest in peace). Then, today happened. In … Continue reading
