there is too much great music in the world.
here's my attempt at bringing 1% to you.
I couldn't wait for this album once I heard the new songs back at their concert a month ago.
I was unable to find it at any local store, so iTunes it was.
Hillsong needs no publicity to you guys, so here are the appropriate links:
this song alone was reason enough to get this album. "Soon"
we might not be there yet, but almost :P
hilarious commercial from intel:
found this little gem on the interwebz while procrastinating studying for finals :P
this one's aimed at you Vicky
learn and be empowered! haha
Melody Gardot is back and she's sounding amazing :]
This 24 year old jazz vocalist first got my attention with her heroic use of music as therapy after being hit with a car and leaving her with severe nerve damage at age 19.
In her own words,
"Music is the thing that saved me.
It’s the thing that gave me purpose."
Her last release Worrisome Heart was good, and I bought the album for a couple of friends in confidence, but there was something missing - I just couldn't figure out what. Whatever it was, it's definitely not missing in her newest release My One and Only Thrill. The sound production on this album is definitely one up her last work - it just sounds fuller. Her voice shines as the star of each track, as it should, and the instrumentation keeps a very elaborate yet prim & proper backdrop in all the tracks - this was a winner from the very first listen and I'm sure it'll stay on my current playlist for a while.
Jazz may not be your thing, but hey, Melody deserves a Try. Love it? Buy. Fav. track so far: Deep within the Corners of My Mind
(there's something cinematic about this one)
