Once again I forgot that I have a blog. But recently I've had a quite a few people asking me for music, which has made me remember it and maybe decide to start using it again. We'll see how this goes.
So today is Halloween, and since I'm in Germany I'll be going dressed as an American (true story, though, cause I've been telling everyone who asks that my Halloween plans are to sit around in my underwear, and my underwear is covered in hamburgers and french fries). Also, I don't think people in rural Germany will be dressing up, so I'd look pretty foolish if I did. Also, I'm the worst ever at coming up with Halloween costume ideas. One time I had a good one, it took me 3 years before I was able to wear it (again, living in rural foreign towns with no chance to celebrate), but I had friends steal it every year until I managed to wear it. I need inspiration like that more often!
If you're curious, the costume makes its appearance at the second chorus of this video:
And now for a (not-so) new song. Well, the original is not new, and this cover is not so new, but I just heard it, and I really like it. Not as much as the original, but enough to post it. And I guess one could say covers are the musical equivalent of costumes, no? No. That's just me trying to be clever and punny for Halloween. But music!

And just in case you didn't pick it up, that first song was Skeleton Boy, by Friendly Fires. Then a cover of Little Dragon's Twice, by Robert Glasper, ?uestlove of The Roots, and Solange on vocals.
