Fans of Snow Patrol’s third album should be satisfied with their fourth, Eyes Open. Give the boys credit, they stuck to the template that made Final Straw such a success. “Hands Open” is this year’s “Chocolate,” while “Chasing Cars” seems to have the same framework as “Run.”
You can hear both songs on the band’s My Space page.
I heard this tune recently during a commercial on HBO advertising their original programming. It’s soulful, moody electronica, guest starring Sia and her considerable vocals. If you liked “Breathe Me,” you’ll probably dig this one as well.

This song slipped by me in 1998, when it was originally released on Mezzanine, but I heard it during an episode of “Cold Case,” and now I’m hooked. It’s a moody, ethereal track that features the Cocteau Twins’ Elizabeth Fraser on vocals.

Poor George. He finally gets to sleep with Meredith and she starts bawling in the middle of it. It turns out she’s still hung up on Dr. McDreamy and really has no interest in good ol’ Georgie-boy. Fans of “Grey’s Anatomy” know exactly what I’m talking about, but you don’t have to watch the show to enjoy the music.
This song, from Get Set Go’s second album, Ordinary World, was playing during the scene where George sought help for his dislocated shoulder. It’s quite catchy and the lyrics are funny.

You’ll recognize this song from the Dockers commercial where a man and a woman see each other on passing cable cars. One decides to get off, goes around to get on the other car, only to miss it. The two cars move off, leaving the man and woman standing on opposite sides of the tracks. What this has to do with pants I do not know.
The song itself is a jazzy little number with a great little repeating bass line. Peyroux provides the perfectly subtle vocals.
