Jenny Owen Youngs - Hot In Herre Jenny Owen Youngs - Hot In Herre (MP3) | mirror Not sure how I missed this last year, but it's an absolutely hilarious cover and video. The Jenny Lewis-like cheekiness is a big plus. Discobelle points us to a neato remix featuring Snoop and Robyn: Snoop Dogg (ft. Robyn) - Sexual Eruption (Fyre Department remix). Looking forward to a white label, or better

"Skillet on the stove - it's such a temptation. Maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesn't get burned." I don't know why it's taken me this long to talk about Jenny Owen Youngs . I mean, Good Lord, Perez Hilton beat me to it. Now were this a post about some celebrity hit-and-running her car while having a domestic fight during a head-shaving with spawn sitting dangerously on her lap, then it'd be understandable. This, however, is not that kind of post, because, thankfully, I don't [...]

The recontexualization of music is nothing new. Predominantly, it's been the use of samples in hip-hop to take familiar songs and bend and twist them and break them down and build the back up into something new. It might have reached its zenith during the mashup crazy of a few years back, notably on The Grey Album, where producer Danger Mouse took rhymes from Jay-Z and the music of The Beatles and coagulated them into an aural treat. Everyone remembers the dawn of Napster and you couldn't convince me otherwise that the single reason [...]
It was March of last year that I first wrote about Jenny Owen Youngs on this blog. That was around the time I first discovered her wonderful song called Fuck Was I , a gentle, haunting song about regret. It was one of my favourite songs of last year, despite me never really getting into the rest of her material. Since then, she has been signed by majorish record label Nettwerk who have reissued her first album, Batten the Hatches . In recent months she has toured the UK, released a split EP [...]
Random Thought #6 - Has anyone seen that commercial where this father buys a buttload of Domino's pizza for dinner and the mother walks in and says, "(Gasp) I love you!" That's complete bullshit. When I went out to school in San Francisco, Katie and I went to see folk-jazz singer-songwriter Jolie Holland in her native town. What we did not expect was the opener, Sean Hayes . We were not even paying attention to any of the acts until he took [...]
jenny owen youngs (for some reason, convention, i suppose, it takes me several attempts to correctly pluralize jenny's surname, rather than her middle) brings nelly's "hot in herre" to the igloo & arctic animal set, and a.g. kind of likes it. this reminds me of my friend starr who, when the original version of the song first dropped, as it's said, would walk around the jabberwocky campus singing the chorus in an wicked & parodied falsetto. ms. owen youngs 's version is - sorry starr - thankfully much better.

Descubrí esta canción en Weeds, que es una serie muy buena con una música cojonuda (ahí queda eso). Hacen una cosa muy curiosa: en cada episodio, a partir de la segunda temporada, la canción del principio la versiona un artista diferente. La canción en cuestión es Little Boxes, y la ponen en las promos de cuatro cada vez que enciendo la tele. Es curioso oír lo que hacen con esa melodía de apenas

fuck was i hot in here (nelly cover) www.jennyowenyoungs.com I just found this awesome cover on copy, right? (best cover songs blog ever) so I realized it was time I posted about Jenny Owen Youngs. Batten The Hatches was recently re-released so it's like new again! Also I love when mellow, folk-y girls do covers of hip hop songs. Oh, and swear. It doesn't get any better than that.

This exceptionally sweary song didn't go down too well when it showed up as my currently playing selection whilst in a business meeting using messenger. Oops. Apparently this has been on the TV, not sure where, but not whlst I've been watching. It didn't matter that it was a country song, with 'cellos sung in reflective style by a woman, I might as well have been listening to GG Allin or GWAR. Anyhow, if you're work firewall doesn't somehow screw with the links (or block this site from now on) you too can enjoy the song (just remember to hide [...]

My current musical obsession is this song from Jenny Owen Youngs . Fuck Was I It's been out for well over a year though I only encountered it recently. But good lord, how was this not constantly playing last spring and summer, when I really could have used it? It's a breakup anthem that cuts through all confusion - a moment of clarity in a sea of madness. I mean, who could ask for a more satisfying and devastating verse than this: Love tears [...]
Jenny Owen Youngs has something like 31,000 friends on Myspace. That makes her roughly 1,500 more popular than yours truly. After listening to "F*ck Was I" quite a few times, she can add one more fan to her list. Yes, I'm a sucker for crass young ladies who drop f bombs. And before you accuse me of being another critic who's a sucker for attractive women who drop f bombs in their songs, I would still be a fan if it was titled something more Battlestar friendly like, "Frack Was I." Who [...]
Jenny Owen Youngs ' new album just dropped on the 10th, so I thought it a fitting time to finally tender a review. There's a lot of Alana Davis in this smoky-voiced New Jersey-ite with a penchant for neckties and schoolgirl skirts. No, she's not an Avril wannabe, but yes, I do want to make out with her. I assure you that fact has no bearing on my opinion of the music herein. It's the top shelf of standard female singer/songwriter fare, smacking of longing and angst, sung over dutifully finger-picked guitar and meandering cello. It's like a fine brandy, [...]
