Kinder words here we could pick
A kind approach might do the trick
Hurt you, hurt me, well that needs to stop
Kinder words here we could choose
We've kind of got a lot to lose
The temperature we need that to drop
I really wish this song would come back into rotation because I think we all could benefit from the wise words this song has to offer. This world is dark enough without us adding more negativity. Maybe it's just me wishing to see things through rose colored glasses, or maybe it's the due to the advancement of technology that we all have a platform to stand on and news that we'd never normally hear about is getting to us faster than ever. I don't know. What I do know is right now there is way to much negativity in this world and we all need to do our part to change that. We are all humans and we all deserve a break, regardless of what we believe to be right. Everyone fucks up, no one is perfect. Cut a little slack. Think about that the next time you get on your soapbox or rage. Be peaceful, be caring, be kind, be open minded, take care of yourself and each other my friends.
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Kinder Words
Quite sometime ago I woke up from a night of hard partying and said to myself, "Man, I am to old for this shit." To old to spend the day recovering fron the night before. To tired to stay up until 4AM. I can no longer wake up foggy headed trying to piece the night together. Don't get me wrong, I had some epic fun times and there are days where I miss having that sort of crazy fun with my friends, but there is that point when you realize that there is more to life and slowing your roll is needed. I think this song captures that moment perfectly. The addition of Chance The Rapper makes this song even more epic.

I found this gem on a Reddit post. Rips is from Beantown (Boston), MA. The first time I heard them I seriously got out of my chair and started dancing. I would call their sound modern funk, with a twist of psychedelic chilled out soul. They haven't really been around long, they only have a few E.P.s out, but they play tighter than a wet jelly jar on a muggy afternoon. This particular song is super addictive and has a ska-like vibe to it. If you know anything about me you know I am a sucker for a killer horn section. The tempo changes are masterfully done, and super clean. The lyrics are pretty solid and fun to sing with. The vocalist reminds me a bit of John Popper of the band Blues Traveler, which is definitely a compliment. Every song I have head by them is totally dance-able. Keep an eye out for these cats, as they are currently touring and in the process of making a full length album! If they don't make it big it would be a crying shame.
Ripe - Talk To The Moon
Waves of blue, wet mist, hot sun. Cool breeze, hissing silent crash, toes sinking into the sand. Row, row row, your float, gently to a shore, merrily, barely coasting along, out here life seems like a dream.
Kidstreet - Song (studio version)
Sky of blue, endless space, golden rays. Dry air, roaring wiping wind, freedom like the birds. Fly, fly, fly away into the horizon. Your worries shed and dissipate behind you, scattered and falling to the earth below.
