Margolnick- The Knife

this is a preview of ‘the knife,’ a song by a band called margolnick. of of their members submitted this video with the following post:

Margolnick (Mar-goll-nick) is a six piece out of Charlotte, NC. Blurring the lines between rock, folk, and indie, this band creates a sound that listeners are sure to come back to time and time again. With lyrics that tug at the heart strings and strong melodies that demand getting stuck in the head, the debut album “Taylorsville” and the upcoming album “Gold and Silver” are sure to find a solid spot in your collection.
Cole Moser

check out their album ‘taylorville’ here, and another of their newer songs here. and keep eye out for their upcoming album. oh, and thanks for the submission!

Los Zafiros- He Venido
 

i think i’m growing more fond of this type of music. it hasn’t always been my cup of tea. now, i get a sense of nostalgia that i shouldn’t feel when i listen to it seeing that i wasn’t alive during the doo-wop period. it’s nice. i’m probably less than two years away from buying the doo-wop box-sets from pbs.

Adele - Someone Like You (Live)

Adele

Adele - Someone Like You (Live)

What it is DailyCrack? I know I’ve been gone a while but you know how that goes…sometimes life gets in the way of living. Also, I was quite possibly (quite definitely) jaded with the site for a while. But that’s neither here nor there.

Adele’s sophomore effort is too much for me to keep to myself so here I am in all of my Adele loving glory (4th Adele post from me!) to give you all a peek at the CD that I preordered AND went out to buy today because (drumroll please) only Target has a deluxe version with 4 live extra recordings which I HAD to have!

This gem is absolutely beautiful and heartbreaking and breathtaking. Who CAN’T relate to this one? If you can’t…you’re one lucky bitch.

Kick back and enjoy right after you run out to buy this CD!

Adele- Rolling In The Deep

SNAP!

Ya’ll know how much I love Adele so as soon as I got this in my inbox 4 minutes ago I knew two things: 1 I would stop doing my work and listen (yes in my office) and 2 I was going to post it ass soon as I was done listening to the track.

Well let me just say that this track is awesome and I can’t wait for Adele’s new cd to come out and I’m glad that I could get this to DailyCrack with the quickness.

Enjoy!!!

-CaliDre

Did I mention that the video doesn’t even premier until December 3rd! Yup - you got it here first (if you weren’t on Adele’s listserv that is)!!!
