Let's dance: I like dancing to Franz Ferdinand.

Franz Ferdinand is one of those bands I pretty much like they way they are, and I'm not holding out for some kind of musical overhaul when their third album drops in January.
I'm definitely open to being surprised, but as they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
That's why I'm glad that this live performance from this year's Glastonbury Festival, of what may be one of the first singles off the new album, is nothing too new.

While everyone is buzzing about the fun new Madonna album, there's another artist who's also creating some infectious pop songs that you can't help but want to dance to right now. Her name is Annie, she's Norwegian, and I first fell for her upbeat, techno sound a couple of years ago when I heard a song called "Heartbeat."
Her newest song, "I Know Ur Girlfriend Hates Me," is from her upcoming album, Don't Stop, which hits stores in July.

One of my current musical obsessions is LCD Soundsystem's latest album, Sound of Silver, and recent Song of the Day honoree "All My Friends" continues to be on near-constant rotation. So I was delighted to find this cover of the song by highly satisfying British rockers Franz Ferdinand. Franz's take was produced by DJ Erol Alkan and will be the B-Side to LCD Soundsystem's "All My Friends" single, which comes out May 21 in the UK.

The Coachella music festival begins today in Indio, CA, and sadly, I'm missing out on it this year. But the lineup is so great I figured I'd put together a lil playlist with music by some of my favorite musicians who are heading down to Indio, perhaps right as we speak (or type).
I'm really pleased with this playlist: a little Yeah Yeah Yeahs ("Cheated Hearts"), some Franz Ferdinand ("Lucid Dreams"), and Beirut ("Scenic World"), along with tunes by the more seasoned folks like Leonard Cohen ("Everybody Knows"), The Cure ("Close to Me") and, of course, Paul McCartney ("Maybe I'm Amazed").
