Renaissance 2.0
What a powerful song “Not Meant To Be” is. It’s not just a good song to hear but the message is so right on the money. We’ve all been in the kind of relationship this story tells… It’s such a helpless feeling when you realize that no matter what you do, your relationship just isn’t…
I’ve always loved this gem from the Indigo Girls from way back in the day. It always makes me smile and feel inspired. How can you not love a song that mentions Rasputin and philosophy? Great lyrics with amazing harmonies and beautiful melody delivering an important message. What more could you ever ask from a…
Hoppípolla by Sigur Rós is a beautiful work of art. I first heard it today as the soundtrack to an amazing short film by Carlos Lascano called "A Short Love Story in Stop Motion". I did some searching and discovered that the title translates into “My Winter” and the lyrics describe the joys of youth….
Oprah had the new Journey on her show where she shared the story of how they found their amazing new singer Arnel Pineda. The little guy has a big voice and sounds a lot like Steve Perry. I’ve been a fan forever so I still prefer to see/hear Steve Perry singing but these things happen….
I really enjoyed this song “”Let Me Be Myself” by 3 Doors Down, especially their music video. I love the message I took away from it. How we should strive to be our true selves, despite what those around us wish us to be. It’s easier said than done. We all get tangled in a…
I LOVE Zooey Deschanel! I’ve seen her in several movies and didn’t even realize it was the same actress. Then I learned how wonderful a singer she is too. Here’s a wonderful video she did for her song “why do you let me stay here” with her co-star from “500 days of Summer” Joseph Gordon-Levitt….
Here’s the new song from Colbie Caillat called “Fallin’ for You” co-starring the funny Bobby Moynihan from SNL in a cute video about a most unusual couple. In an interview, Colbie said she was inspired to write the song after spending a lot of time with a friend and then started feeling something much more…
I’ve only recently become a fan of Chantal Kreviazuk. Well, not really. As it turns out, she’s done so many songs I’ve loved but I just didn’t know her name. For example, she did “Weight of the World” and “Feels Like Home” from “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days”. She’s also written many…
I’ve always liked Ace of Base and this song… which wasn’t one of their biggest hits here in the USA. Still, it’s a fun song with a simple but true message. It IS a beautiful life! You can do what you want just seize the day What you’re doing tomorrow’s gonna come your way Don’t…
On twitter tonight, I asked everyone to name some good actors turned singers but no one could come up with any. We did come up with a slew of bad ones though. Here are just some of them. I will add more to the playlist with time.
