Musik Poste: "Everything Is Simple Now - A Modern Goren & Eames Mix" for jesshelga

Christmas present time! [livejournal.com profile] jesshelga asked for her "scrappy three-song [Goren and Eames] list" to be completed, and I complied.

Probably not with as much soppiness, but eh. It's Christmas! Note about the ~wanky~ format: with Goren and Eames, I often find the dictionary and one-word sentences sum them up the best - thus the collaboration with Merriam Webster's website. That, and I like words, yo.

Merry Christmas, J.Helg! Enjoy it, or else. Scary music plays

I hope you like it. It's been kicking around on iBo since you first said you wanted it, and I tried so freakin' hard to do drabbles but NO. So you got wank. Wank's just as good, right?

Glen and Colm doing Britney, no less. BRITNEY.

Doesn't it make you weep? The whole album (it has "New Soul" on it, natch) is just fantastic. I kind of want to love her a lot, now.
