Come on, bring me a flood Come on, bring me a code red warning My baby and me need a tragedy
I like Hurts to Purr, but my favorite song from them is Flood. I love this song so much. It takes you and moves you, like the Sea. I think this song is what Melancholy In Love is all about. Liz Pappademas's voice along with the melody arrangement of Tom Benton & Jeremy Bruch just makes Flood perfect. The lyrics are really saddening and each time when I listen to the song I think of rain on a normal dark spring day. Lying back on your bed thinking of so much that's making you feel down. This song hits me personally. Whenever I listen to it I'm taking away. It's just that good. I think if you love piano you'll love this song. I don't really know what else to say for this song. It's too great to describe. If you've never really listened to music like this before it might not move you at first but give it time. You'll be swayed.
I can't believe I'd wish for so much suffering But it's better than this nothing Bring me anything, oh, to get my baby and me together again
Man, I don't know why I love the sounds of Julieta Venegas but she is winning my heart song by song. One of her songs, "Algo Esta Cambiando", is a great song about a relationship that is at first glance the same but if you look closely something's changing. I love this song and I love this artist. I found out about Julieta Venegas from Nelly Furtado when she was on Furtado's song, "Baja Otro Luz [Under Another Light]". Hearing Furtado, Venegas, and La Mala Rodriguez singing, "El Color De Mi Vida Cambio Desde Que Tu Llegaste [The Color Of My Life Changed When You Arrived]" Back and forth like they were in a conversation was magical. It made the song a great one. If they collaborate again I'm buying the song, no questions asked. Anyways, moving on..... Julieta Venegas treats her songs like children. You can just hear how much work has been put together for each song and Algo Esta Cambiando must have taken her weeks to put together. To make the song just right. The song itself is great to listen to. I feel like I'm "in love" and then losing love when I listen to the song. Fading out of a relationship that was not working with me emotionally. I love that. I love how a song can take me and swoop me into a lovely story. It's great to hear songs like that. All in All, I think this song is a great one, very close to a perfect song. For all music lovers out there if you love Perfect Pop you'll love Julieta Venegas. Especially the song, Algo Esta Cambiando. It's got a 97% out of 100% in the "Perfect Pop" Meter. With vocalizing, hooks, and a chorus that'll echo in your head anytime anywhere, if America was very open to foreign music this song would top charts. But sadly that's not the case. Oh well, At least it top Latin Charts. Go on with your Spanish self Bonita! While I listened to Julieta since January 2010, I've been having a lot of thought about what kind of music I like. I love so much music but I'm also picky at the same time. In middle school I thought I liked Indie Music but I don't. Cause the Decemberists piss me off and Vampire Weekend are annoying sometimes to me. And so on and so on. I think that I like Pop. Perfect Pop, not Popular Pop that sucks. Good Pop that takes you and makes you want more. Pop that's catchy. Pop that tells a story. Pop that takes you away. Pop that makes people feel. Pop that just makes you feel human. I've explored through English, French, and Asian Pop since I was 8. I didn't know much about Latin Pop until 2009. You know, I think that I wouldn't have explored Latin Pop Music if it wasn't for Nelly Furtado's 2009 album, Mi Plan. Also, I wouldn't have found out about Julieta Venegas without Furtado's help. Thank you, Nelly Furtado! Here's Algo Esta Canbiando by Julieta Venegas Official Website Myspace Facebook Youtube Twitter Also, enjoy this beautifully done music video for the song. Hope you like the song and the video.
I'm sorry, it's been a month. I've been gone for a whole month cause it was Black History Month. I love celebrating it. I was rediscovering R&B, Hip-Hop, and Rap music through February and I was watching a lot of Black TV Shows. God, they're addicting. I love being black. Anyways.... I love the vocal sounds of Algebra. To me, Ms. Blessett does a great job with her Pure R&B sounds and Pure R&B vocals. Lyrics that are true and filled with emotions. My favorite song of her's is, "I Know". The melodies and the beats of I Know are amazing. This song is on the Girlfriends Soundtrack. This song reminds me of the show Girlfriends but it also reminds me of myself. Growing, Learning and Knowing. Here's I Know by Algebra Blessett
Hope you enjoy the song!
I didn't make this video but I really like it. I had to share it with you guys.
I'm sure some of you have heard of Sam Phillips infamous Long Play deal she's got going on this year. Basically she's giving subscribers a year of free music for 52$! 5 Digital EPs, Bonus Tracks/Rarities, Outtakes, Blog, Journal, Radio Talk, and so much more. Plus, she's giving her subscribers a free full-length digital album of her upcoming album. Set to release this fall. I know that it's a little late to post a Christmas song. But, you know what, I was broke during Christmas so I couldn't subscribe. I subscribed Thursday night and I feel like I've gotten my money's worth. Sam Phillips are so generous. You know, I've noticed that it's usually women that offer their music for free more than men. That's why I check on my female artists before the males. They don't give you much unless it was promoted on TV. Then they'll start giving a song(s) away. ANYWAYS................On with the song. It Doesn't Feel Like Christmas makes me smile but makes me feel really sad at the same time because.....Well, if you ever watched Gilmore Girls and you heard Sam Phillips vocalizing to a melody. For example....
I love that la la. Well the songs reminds me of Gilmore Girls which makes me happy. (You know, I sometimes think that the only reason why I really like Sam Phillips is because her voice reminds me of Gilmore Girls.) I miss that show. It was supposed to have 8 seasons, not 7! Anyways, the reason why it makes me so sad is because it reminds me that even though I had a good Christmas last year it'll be bad this year. I just feel it in my bones. Plus the lyrics are so sad and yet the vocals are so sweet. Especially the vocalizing parts. Sam Phillips really knows how to hit home sometimes. Here's It Doesn't Feel Like Christmas By Sam Phillips
Dreams They Come & Go, This Is One I've Had Forever I Know.
I don't know how Sally does it. She just writes a song with hope and happiness mixed with uncertainty and sadness. She's the Happily Melancholic Queen. I loved her work as New Buffalo and now she's releasing her next album with her real name. She may have changed her name but her music, lyrics, and vocals are still just as heavenly as before. She's mixed the sounds of piano and acoustic guitar (Main instruments used for the Somewhere, Anywhere album as New Buffalo) with her Casio keyboard and synth and lo-fi sounds (Main instruments for The Last Beautiful Day). She's grown so much since her first release About Last Night. I love this artist.
I've Found The Lock In The Key, Now I Can Be Everything I've Wanted To Be
This is my favorite song of Iko. It's a really touching song of being left behind. This band has a lot of impactful songs and calming melodies led by Kieran Scragg. I Hope You Like You Left Me Here by Iko.
I love this song. When you hear it you either feel the anger, the sadness, or the happiness in the song. Or all three! This song is moving, goofy, powerful, and dynamic. Hope You Enjoy Ghost by Gregory & the Hawk. Music Video Myspace
