Oh man time to lower the bar:
Here is what I've been blasting into my earspace:
Carried Away: Passion Pit
Quesadilla: Walk The Moon
These songs basically play constantly on the "Alt Rock" station on Sirius. I'm not one for genres but when a station has me consistently pulling up itunes, I don't care what you label it as.
Then, at the end of last semester, literally after school on the day before winter break, some student walks by my room blasting something through his phone. I stop him in the hallway - he a little nervous (possibly that I may take his noise-maker prior to the break) - and I ask, "hey, what song is that?"
It was this song:
Vancouver Beatdown: Zomboy
And the pandora station dedicated to this lead me to this artist, who is basically technoviolin.
Spontaneous Me: Lindsey Sterling
SUDDENLY BLUEGRASS:
Foggy Mountain Breakdown: Earl Scruggs
I once heard someone say that bluegrass was a "superior form of music", after listening to a few tracks by Mr. Scruggs, I figure their claim isn't completely unsubstantiated.
And then never has a song made me want to take a roadtrip more:
King of the Road: Rodger Miller
"I'm a man of means by no means" is probably one of my favorite lyrics, of all songs.

I was going to end this here but then SCHAZER had to go and make a reference so
Here it Goes Again: Ok Go
Do what you want: Ok Go
