Song of the Day: “Too Close” by Alex Clare (Unplugged version)
[Analysis - The song that's been stuck in your head since Microsoft started running their new campaign. Alex Clare's "Too Close" combines soul and dub step -- and the soul really shines through in this acoustic version.]



I saw that ecard on Pinterest last night and laughed out loud. Freaking awesome! I guess I'm 0-1 so far after last night's game. That means I have to win 13 this weekend. I can do it!
@ginidietrich 13-1. No big deal. Just as long as you picked the Ravens :-)
@MikeSchaffer Oh I did! They're on fire.
