i usually love ikea, but those lekman drawers are ugly.

Help me find storage drawers for my Ikea bookshelf! I have this Expedit bookshelf from Ikea. I set it up horizontally, and would like to get four containers for the bottom row. I don't like the plastic Lekman drawers that Ikea carries. Ideally, I'd get something like these green fabric cubes from Target, but they are one-inch too big. Where can I find 13" x 13" (or smaller) cubes/boxes/drawers/containers, in a non-clear material (bright colors desired, but optional), without spending more than $50?

swedish guitarline deja-entendu

What other song does this golden guitar-line from the new Jens Lekman album remind me of? Ignore the harp, strings and drums!

I am going CRAZY every time I hear this repeating guitar-line, as it reminds me very strongly of a similar guitar-line from a song I can't put my finger on. A late-90s radio hit? Something from the 80s, even? For a sec I thought maybe it was The Cure but I don't think that's the case.

(If you think you've figured it out, bonus point if you can point me to a recording/sample of the given song for confirmation.)
