Boys and girls, be careful of the friends you make. Sometimes their coolness and awesomeness is so off the charts that they will introduce you things that totally suck you in and make you wonder how you ever worked at your desk without it.
muxtape is just so awesome when you find people with great taste in music. Don’t like what those DJs choose for the radio, well, now you have an alternative when sitting at your desk.
First heard this song ‘New Soul’ by Yael Naim via Hypem and I totally loved it. So did a Google search on the singer and learned that this was the song used in a Macbook Air commercial.
I couldn’t describe why I loved this song until I found someone online describing it as:
light, ethereal, infectious and personal.
The music video for the song:

The lyrics:
I’m a new soul
I came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit bout how to give and take
But since I came here, felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake
La, la, la, la (21x)
La, la, la, la (21x)
See I’m a young soul in this very strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit bout what is true and fake
But why all this hate? try to communicate
Finding trust and love is not always easy to make
La, la, la, la (21x)
La, la, la, la (21x)
This is a happy end
Cause you don’t understand
Everything you have done
Why’s everything so wrong
This is a happy end
Come and give me your hand
I’ll take you far away
I’m a new soul
I came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit bout how to give and take
But since I came here, felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake
New soul… (la, la, la, la,…)
In this very strange world…
Every possible mistake
Possible mistake
Every possible mistake
Mistakes, mistakes, mistakes…
