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: “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
Song of the day: “Barefoot Blue Jean Night” – Jake Owen
Well well well, now that it’s July I see the weather has finally shaped up and started acting like it. (I know, welcome to Chicago.) While summer comes packed with multiple things, particularly for a winter-hater such as myself, one of the best things about summer is country music. Sure, you can listen to it … Continue reading
Song of the day: “I Want You (Hold on to Love)” – Cee Lo Green
The classic and oldschool R&B vibe Cee Lo Green’s voice is drenched in throughout I Want You (Hold on to Love) can be described in one word: sexy. From the simple runs, scoops and genuine lyrics, Cee Lo finds a way to channel R&B greats and reproduce it in a current way. This was also … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Nobody’s Perfect” – Jessie J
With my current obsession with all things out of the United Kingdom (thanks, royal wedding), I’m not sure how Jessie J found a way to slip by until today. The 23-year-old R&B/pop singer has written songs for both Chris Brown and snaggletooth Miley Cyrus, including gaining the title of “co-writer” of Party in the USA. … Continue reading
