Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros - Mother

Happy Mothers Day to all the moms out there!

If you haven’t heard this song, or heard about the album from which it came, you should check it out. The song is a part of a collaboration album, featuring acts like Eddie Vedder, Beck , Bono, David Bowie, Faith Hill, Lauryn Hill, and a lot of other artists. The album is put out by Every Mother Counts,  an organization dedicated to increasing education and support around the issue of maternal mortality.

Please check out the organizations website, and reblog this.

Once again, Happy Mothers Day Moms! :p

Reportedly, the new album is due out  May 29th, and the band will also be releasing a previously unheard song entitled, “Mother” for a charity compilation put out by Starbucks and model Christy Turlington. The compilation will also include artists such as Eddie Vedder, David Bowie, Paul Simon, Patti Smith, Beck and a bunch of other big names I don’t care too much about. Ha.

Whew!

The Flaming Lips with Neon Indian - Is David Bowie Dying?

From the collaboration that has been rumored/hyped/talked about/promoted/anticipated/whatever, comes Is David Bowie Dying?  Supposedly there is only a limited number of “12 vinyl circulating out there(and now a whole lotta mp3, undoubtedly).

At first listen I was like, yeah whatever,..we’ve heard this before, but after sticking the track on repeat, and really listening,..well, I really like it.

I do wonder what Bowie will think of the title?

As much as i love Bowie, i am always skeptical about something like this. It’s two discs an features a Indie star studded lineup.
