Music#1 Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros

I heard them on a rerun of Conan's show last month. They played 40 Day Dream and I was sold. The entire album was in my itunes the next day. I'd recommend that they be seen and heard first via youtube (Live at the Regent) to feel their energy or you can sample songs here (Amazon) as well. They seem MAD but I love that MAD.

40 Day Dream is the first track of their album and my favourite. It is happy, careless and joyous. See them sing it - you'd feel happier.
I am pretty set and happy with my life but if I ever had a chance of becoming whoever I wanted to be? A musician. Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros is one reason why.

My next favourite track is Home. I actually heard it on a website like a year back. Fell in love but left it to trail. Home is going to be my wedding day song, someday maybe :)
Album: Up from Below
Genre: Indie, rock pop, alternative

Their energy and how they are beautifully lost in the moment when the song is being performed makes me want to be one of them! :)

The link I posted on your previous post was not as good as this earlier performance of The Who: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKUBTX9kKEo&feature=related
