Every Tuesday, Starbucks comes out with a new song from an unknown band, for you to download from iTunes for free. I’ve decided to start writing about these songs, and am hoping to maybe find some to add to my workout play list. It also doesn’t hurt to open your mind to new sounds that you would otherwise say no to.

My first free download is Andrew Bird “Fitz and the Dizzyspells”.

Upbeat, soft yet a little romantic, I can almost see myself riding my bike through the long, windy dirt roads of the back-country. With the wind blowing through my hair, and gazing out into the rolling green fields of wild flowers.

Not sure if I would buy anything else from Andrew Bird, but will definitely check out what else they have to offer. And hey, who doesn’t like free music?

Oh, and there is a fun whistling solo in the song too. If that doesn’t lift your spirits, I don’t know what will!

Enjoy!
