Renaissance 2.0
This has always been one of my favorite songs. It’s deep and thought provoking. The part that really stays with me is this one; Everyone’s got to face down the demons, Maybe today, We can put the past away This came to mind today because I had a nice serious conversation today with someone close…
I love SNOW PATROL so I was thrilled this morning when I heard their new song “JUST SAY YES”! They are one of the most underrated bands around today. They’re best known for the songs “Chasing Cars” which was helped by its use the TV show Grey’s Anatomy and “Open Your Eyes” which was helped…
I loved this song, “Love Left to Lose” by Sons of Sylvia who performed it live on American Idol tonight. I never heard of them before but I recognized them for some reason. They were previously known as The Clark Brothers who won the top prize on the reality show called The Next Great American…
Yes is one of my favorite bands of all-time and “It Can Happen to You” from their 90125 album is one of my favorite songs. It was the same album that spawned their chart topping “Owner of a Lonely Heart”. Trevor Horn (from Buggles & Video Killed the Radio Star fame) produced these two songs…
Here’s a blast from the past to the 1980s. Flash N’ the Pan and their “MEDIA MAN” hit which eerily fits in well with today’s new media age. Even the name of the band is ironic as Adobe Flash continues to get panned by Apple. Sit back and enjoy this song from more than a…
I’ve got Jason Derulo’s song stuck “in my head”. No really, I keep thinking about that amazing live performance he gave on American Idol this week for his song “In My Head”. It wasn’t just my favorite live performance this season by ANY artist but perhaps of all nine seasons of Idol. It was that…
Here’s another gem from Five for Fighting from their album SLICE. We all have our own story, our ups and downs, our triumphs and tragedies…This song captures our journey so well. We must endure our bruises like badges of honor…and enjoy the story as it unfolds. We must appreciate each new chapter and keep the…
I went to see Alice in Wonderland and then I saw this preview of the new movie called Legend of the Guardians which has incredible animation (from the people behind Happy Feet). Then I was captivated by the music used in the trailer. It sounded a lot like U2 but it wasn’t anything I remembered…
One of my favorite music artists is Five for Fighting which is really John Ondrasik. You’ll find many of his songs on this blog. Some of my favorite songs are: 100 Years, World, The Riddle, etc. This song called “SLICE” is another delightful piece that culls back a better time and place. When music, not…
I love Zooey Deschanel so of course I was thrilled to see her new music video with SHE & HIM for their new song “IN THE SUN”. It’s such a joyful song and video with scenes in high school hall ways and classroom. It’s such a reflection of her cute and quirky personality. Enjoy!
