Weekend Shenanigans (by Ellie)

This week I've decided to treat you all to a Friday Double Feature instead of your typical Thursday/Saturday playlists. Which is my sugar-coated way of saying I was too busy to do more than one playlist this weekend. But you still get the same amount of new stuff, so who's complaining? Here are 22 tracks that are perfect for dancing, driving, chilling, jamming, going out, staying in, and everything in between. Enjoy!

1. I Gotta Feeling - Black Eyed Peas

The parties at my college are totally this crazy/fun/raunchy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMxASjxRk1w [I'd warn all of you younger readers of my blog to not watch this music video, but who am I kidding, you've all read Twilight. It's really not too much dirtier.]

2. Ice Cream - New Young Pony Club

3. Dance Anthem of the 80's - Regina Spektor

4. Fascination - Alphabeat

5. The Night Starts Here - Stars

6. We're Here to Save the Day (feat. Asher Roth) - Constellations

7. Friday Night - Lily Allen

8. Saturday Nite Riot - Pink Spiders

9. No You Girls - Franz Ferdinand

10. The Future Freaks Me Out - Motion City Soundtrack

11. Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell (Wallpaper Remix) - Das Racist

This is quite possibly the most awful yet charmingly ridiculous song I've heard in a while.

12. So Insane - Discovery

So it turns out that Discovery is the side project of Vampire Weekend keyboardist/producer Rostam Batmanglij and Ra Ra Riot singer Wes Miles. I kid you not. Look it up. I know, right?!

13. I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor - Arctic Monkeys

Here's the video from when they played Glastonbury (sorta like the British version of Woodstock) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onJud5Jb5nQ

14. Bad Fever - Asteroids Galaxy Tour

15. Creator - Santigold

16. One, Two, Three, GO! - Belanova

17. Kill the Director - The Wombats

18. Pumpkin Soup - Kate Nash

19. Alcohol - CSS

20. Cobrastyle - Teddybears Stockholm

21. Short Skirt/Long Jacket - Cake

I found a video of random people on the street listening to and telling researchers what they think about this song. Funniest thing ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vd34vJohGXc

22. Love Today - MIKA
