EXTRA GOODIES :::    WIZARD ROCK

If you were previously unaware of wizard rock, you're welcome. In celebration of the new Hary Potter news, here's some Harry and the Potters. You can also look into Draco and the Malfoys, The Boy Who Lived, and many others. I seem to have outed myself as a nerd. 

Bonus Harry Potter pop goodness from Meekakitty. "Wizard Love" about forbidden love between a Slytherin boy and Gryffindor girl.
