Renaissance 2.0
Love this song and the music video is so cute too. Carrie Underwood does a good job as several different types of American girls. I’m a push-over for this kind of thing cause I have my own 3-year old All American Girl. All American Girl Since the day they got married, He’d been praying for…
Blue Murder wasn’t around long but I love their song “Jelly Roll”! BlueMurder was the brainchild of guitar virtuoso John Sykes. It was a melodic heavy metal band from England, founded by ex-Whitesnake guitarist Sykes. Upon Sykes’ firing from the most successful version of Whitesnake, the former Tygers Of Pan Tang and Thin Lizzy axe-man…
Swing Out Sister is better known for their other hits like “Break Out” or “Am I the Same Girl” but I’ve always loved “The Waiting Game” the most. The music video is extra special because it shows the singer Corrine Drewery all around Paris looking eerily like Audrey Hepburn in “Funny Face”. It’s a wonderful…
Even though the song is about 25 years old it fits so well in today’s internet age. With all of the friends we make online these days on all of the social networks this song kind of says it all. Even if most of us never meet in person, somehow we’re all linked together in…
Tears for Fears finally hit the big time with this number one song “Everybody wants to Rule the World” in 1985. The original title was “Everybody wants to go to War” but thank goodness they changed it! The mood and feeling of the song just wouldn’t have gone well with that title. The music video…
“You’re All I Have” by Snow Patrol is one of my favorite songs. I still can’t understand how it never really became a big hit single. I’m usually pretty good at predicting whether or not a new song will be a hit or not on the charts. I was dead wrong about this one but…
I have a soft spot for the group ZEBRA from the 1980s. I saw them live at the Meadowlands in New Jersey and have always loved their music. There were only three of them but they created such a big sound. Randy Jackson (not the one from American Idol!) was the lead singer with the…
Del Amitri is an underrated artist. I really love their stuff. Their biggest hit was Roll to Me, but “Tell Her” is a good example of their work that has gone pretty much un-noticed. Here’s Del Amitri performing this song live Tell her not to go I ain’t holding on no more Tell her something…
You have Place a Chill in My Heart by Eurythmics has always been one of my favorite songs. I love Annie Lennox’s performance vocally, visually and emotionally. She does a great job playing the part of several different female characters in telling this tale of the heart. The music and the lyrics work so well…
The anguish of suffering a miscarriage stays with you forever. The pain might subside to a certain degree but it will always remain with you deep down inside. You always think about how things could’ve been, what milestone you would’ve celebrated had your baby lived. Yes, it’s a torturous game that parents play but we…
