Trouble, trouble

Since my eldest daughter has evolved from princess songs to pop songs, I have to hear this song a lot:



Every time I hear it though, I think about this commercial:



Which is a much better song anyway.

In case you're wondering, it's called "Trouble" by Ray LaMontagne. It might sound like it's from some old Mississippi bluesman in the 1930s, but he's from Maine and it was released in 2004.



Great song and I love his voice... so much raw emotion and angst. He really sounds like he's in trouble.

I hope he adopts that little dog and they make each other happy.

It's got a good beat and you can dance to it

What is the music in that NFL Play60 commercial with the Atlanta Falcons players on the bus? It's infectious!



It's "The Power Is On" by The Go! Team.



I picture it being sung by about a hundred little girls doing handclaps in a giant playground.



So I was a little surprised to see The Go! Team is actually an indie band from England.

Here they are performing that same song live on stage:



It's still pretty cool, but I can't wait to hear the cover by the little girl handclapping chorus.
