Jammin' Til All are One!

Howdy fellow Seibertronians. I wanted to open a little place to share my musical interests. I was thinking about a long winded opening about my musical tastes and some of my past obsessions, but I think I'm just going to post what ever songs that are making high repeat on my playlist from week to week. So strap on a pair of headphones and prepare for a ride.
So I'm going start off with Elastic Heart by Sia. There is a fun little thing about this video that links it to everyone's favorite TF site. Shia LaBeouf or what I used to call him "Crazy LaBeouf", but after watching this video I've renamed him "Manly LaBeouf".
I'm not familiar with this artist at all, but I just can't stop listening to this song. After reading the comments though and thinking that I understand the message that the artist is trying to convey; I can no longer watch the video. So, do yourself a favor and watch the video then read the spoiler below.
You are probably way more clever than I am and figured this video out on the first watch, if not:
If I have this right, the girl represents the artist, Shia is the alcoholic father and the cage represents alcoholism.
Now go watch the video again.
OK, now to lighten the mood.
This next artist is Alabama Shakes. The Mrs. just picked up the album and I just cannot put it down. Honestly, I could post the entire thing, but I think I will stick to just two songs. There is nothing mind numbing about these songs, just really, really damn good jams! I will say that I think a first listen to a song should be without visuals. I will make an exception to that for the video posted above.
F**K it, this album is just too good not to share some more.
And I wouldn't feel right if I didn't share the wifey's fav.
Please feel free to share your thoughts, your current musically obsessions or something you think I would enjoy here.
