Fresh Music Thursday [A Day Early]

Need some fresh music?  Well here is what I’ve been listening to non-stop for a couple of weeks.  Maybe you’ll like it too…

Rude, by Magic!I  – love this song – the poor boy just wants the blessing of his love’s Dad, that’s all.  Yet the dad says, “no.”  This is a fantastic song by a cool new band.

 

#88, by Lo Fang – I can’t quit listening to this song. Musically, it’s brilliant.

 

Magic, by Coldplay – continuing the magic theme, I’m loving the sound and lyrics of this new Coldplay song. It’s another song I cant quit listening to.

 

Back in the World, by David Gray – This is a great song off his new album. Check it out.

Have a happy Wednesday!

What’s Playing – Blind Pilot

Sometimes I run across songs that I forgot I had, and when I hear them I can’t believe I have gone so long without listening to them.

The songs ‘The Story I Heard’ and ‘One Red Thread’ by Blind Pilot are two of those songs. They have me firmly back on the bandwagon of this band lately.

If you haven’t checked this band out, you should. Below are a few great songs of theirs.

Enjoy.

 

 

Fresh Music Thursday – Beatles Edition

It’s Fresh Music Thursday! This was formerly on the Honey Heart Photography blog, but now it has a new home.

This is a weekly/semi-weekly series highlighting music that is sometimes new, old, popular, unheard of – whatever it is, it’s gotta be cool – it’s gotta bring a fresh breeze into my life. Hopefully it does for you too.

So I’m feeling a Beatles theme this week – and there’s plenty to choose from.

The following is a great version of “Maybe I’m Amazed” – originally written and performed by Paul McCartney. This is a really beautiful arrangement by Dave Grohl (of the Foo Fighters) & Norah Jones.
