Monday's Song of the Day - "FireFlies"

I have no idea what this song is about but its one of the coolest pop songs and studio productions I've heard in a long time. The group Owl City is really Adam Young from Owatonna, Minnesota where its probably so cold (now) you get to spend a lot of quality time in the studio. Adam apparently did some indie releases before he caught the attention of major label Universal Republic and the rest as they say is history. "FireFlies" was a #1 hit in the US and at one point was the most downloaded song on ITunes. No surprise once again its a really neat tune. If you have't heard it yet check it out using the YouTube link below. And if you know what the heck the song is about please let me know :)

Simon heading to X-Factor - Bye bye Idol (next Year)

Its official this will be Simon Cowell's last year on American Idol so he won't make it to the 10th season next year. Don't cry too much though we will still get to see Simon on his new show X-Factor which is coming to FOX in the fall of 2011 (which is next year wow). Whats cool about this show is the age limits are like from 14 to 100+ and groups can also audition. Looks like its time to spiff up the old vocal chords and find myself an audition location ha ha...seriously who knows we'll check it out.

Hope your weekend was fab and your week is gonna go great. That's all for Monday be back tomorrow with another ccccool (but not cold) song!
