Renaissance 2.0
I just love this song “No Regrest” by Dappy which is a monster number one smash overseas in the UK right now. The music video is very well-done too. It shows several nice storylines of people rising above their situations and circumstances. We always have the choice to just blame our lot in life and…
I have been a lifelong fan of Vince Clarke. I’ve loved his music from Depeche Mode (Just Can’t Get Enough) to Yazoo with Alison Moyet and Erasure with Andy Bell. The common thread being groundbreaking beautiful synthesizer music. Here are some of my favorite songs from Mr. Clarke. Just Can’t Get Enough (Depeche Mode 1981) Only You…
Katy Perry Makes Hot 100 History: Ties Michael Jackson’s Record with 5 number ones from same album! http://bit.ly/pnsp1G This is exciting. I’ve been waiting for this for a few weeks. I knew she had a shot at this rare achievement. Here’s a video playlist of all 10 songs. I call it the Katy Jackson playlist….

Here’s a hilarious alternate music video version of the Lazy Song by Bruno Mars starring the legendary Leonard “Mr. Spock” Nimoy! It seems to be homage to the Big Lebowski by the Coen brothers as he goes shopping in his robe just like the Dude.
Always loved this one from George Michael. “Too Funnky”. “Too Funky” Hey, You’re Just Too Funky For Me I gotta get inside of you And i’ll show you heaven if you let me Hey you just too funky for me I gotta get inside, (i gotta get inside) I gotta get inside of you (so…
I’ve always liked this song but never knew who did it. The Shazzam app helped me find out while watching the trailer for a new Disney movie that’s using the song to promote African Cats. It sure sounds like Snow Patrol if you ask me. In any event, love the song.
A contestant on American Idol season 10 (2011) sang DREAMIN’ by Amos Lee which brought a huge new audience to this incredible singer. Here’s the original version by Amos Lee following by the lyrics and then the one by Scott Dangerfield from his audition on Idol. I love this song not just because it’s simply…
Train’s new song “Marry Me” has a wonderful music video that tips the cap towards “When Harry Met Sally” with sweet little stories from couples. I also like the lyric “Marry Me. If I ever get the nerve to say Hello in this café” It’s a clever way of saying even the greatest love stories…
I love Billy Joel but mostly his stuff prior to 1980’s Glass Houses which was good but clearly the beginning of a different era for his music. Billy’s last great album was “52nd Street” from 1978. Just checkout the way it begins with three masterpieces: Big Shot, Honesty and then My Life. What a 1,…
