bonnie prince billy : when thy song flows through me (video)

lisztomania (orchestral version)

can't get enough of roger neill's orchestral version of phoenix's still excellent breakthrough track "lisztomania."

kanye west ft. kendrick lamar : no more parties in l.a. (stream)

el vy : let's dance (colbert)

radiohead : spectre (stream)

this was radiohead's (unused) stab at the bond theme song for spectre. as lush and haunting as you'd expect from radiohead.

chance the rapper : angels (colbert)

one of my favorite songs of 2015 and definitely my favorite late night performance of the year. with all the dark sh*t that goes down in chicago, it really says something to hear a song that can still make you feel so damn proud to be a part of it.
