Somebody That I Used to Know

So I finally got to go home for a little bit during reading week and so far it has just been me and my dad chilling out at home. Today, however, I went out with some of my best friends who we are all old coworkers of Hallmark (where I worked in highschool).  We decided to get lunch and went to a small sushi place by our houses (where the service sucked balls) and just chatted about everything. Gossip about old and new work, new employees, life, plans for the summer and a lot more.  Then a song came on on the radio. And lately I have been hearing this song, but never actually catching the name of it. Until today when the girls told me what it was.  It was "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye (a singer from Australia). And of course I decide to go out afterwords and buy the CD.

So the CD. It is "Making Mirrors" and... you will have to listen to it to actually understand what I am trying to say, but it is similar to The Beatles (two completely different styles of music though) in the sense that listening to the songs in order all together is how you should listen to it. There were times when I didn't realize that the song had changed, just because it flows together. It's fantastic. People have probably already heard a bunch of songs from Gotye, but this is honestly the first time that I actually just sat there and listened. I wasn't driving, or having lunch, but simply sitting there and listening to the lyrics.  You have to try it at some time.

When I got home today, I decided to Google something that the girls were talking about which was crazy.  I just had to watch it myself to believe it. So instead of explaining it, you'll just have to watch the video below:

Mind blown right? These guys are Walk Off The Earth. They are from Burlington, Ontario (Yeah Canada!!!) Apparently they only had one guitar at the time, so that is why they are all playing together.  If you want to hear more music by them go to their YouTube Channel here: Walk Off The Earth
