sotd: RichGirl – He Ain’t Wit Me Now (Tho)

Published by duane November 18th, 2009 in music musings, music suggestion and song of the day. 2 Comments

I was trying to think of something to post about when it hit me; I haven’t done a SOTD in quite a while. Today I was listening to Amerie’s newest album, In Love and War (there are some really great tracks on there!), and it reminded me of the very poorly marketed RichGirl, and their [...]

sotd: Noah and the Whale – Blue Skies

Published by duane October 6th, 2009 in music musings, music suggestion and song of the day. 1 Comment

I posted about this amazing track on the 5SF a few weeks ago, and I have been loving it more and more with each listen. In order to celebrate the release of their new album, The First Days Of Spring in the US today, I really wanted to shine some more light on this song, [...]

one more reason why City and Colour is amazing

In case I haven’t been able to convince you that City and Colour is amazing, please allow me to submit further evidence as to why this is true:

You told me life was a risk…
I just have one last question:
Will it be my heart,
or will it be his?
See what I mean? Completely AMAZING.

sotd: Smashing Pumpkins – Spaceboy

Published by duane July 28th, 2009 in music musings, music suggestion, song of the day and you tube. 1 Comment

I have stated at least once before on this very blog, that Smashing Pumpkins’ sophomore album, Siamese Dream pretty much shaped how I felt about music; and it was one of a couple albums that signaled the beginning of when I truly started to appreciate and enjoy music at the level that I do now. [...]

sotd: Daniel Bedingfield – Nothing Hurts Like Love

Published by duane July 16th, 2009 in music musings, music suggestion, song of the day and you tube. 3 Comments

I was just listening to my ipod on shuffle, and a song from Daniel Bedingfield’s sophomore album, Second First Impression came up, prompting me to give it some well deserved attention this afternoon. I can’t believe that this record came out almost 5 (!!!) years ago, and there hasn’t been anything new from Daniel in [...]

sotd: LeAnn Rimes – What I Cannot Change

Published by duane July 13th, 2009 in all about me, listen up!, music musings, music suggestion, near and dear and song of the day. 3 Comments

I wanted to post about this song, not only because it is incredibly beautiful, but because it really means something to me. LeAnn Rimes’ What I Cannot Change so succinctly sums up such a major issue for me, and does so with such elegance and grace, that it can’t be ignored. One listen to this [...]

sotd: Gossip – Pop Goes The World

Published by duane July 2nd, 2009 in civil rights, listen up!, music musings, show the love, song of the day and that is so gay. 4 Comments

Yesterday, I was talking with my friend Deb about Gossip’s new amazing album, and we totally agreed that Pop Goes The World is totally poised to be a new anthem for the gay rights movement!!!
I posted it in last week’s 5SF, and to be quite honest, I CANNOT get enough of this song!!! Have another [...]

sotd: Portishead – Roads

Published by duane July 1st, 2009 in music musings, music suggestion, song of the day and you tube. 2 Comments

Sometimes, you come across a song that can only be described as purely brilliant, and utterly perfect. Roads, by Portishead is one of those songs.

I have been a huge fan of Portishead for many, many years, and I was more than pleased when they released a new album last year. While it was different from [...]

sotd: Robyn – Be Mine (live acoustic)

I gave it some thought, and I feel like the 5SF may introduce some great music to you guys, but every once and a while, I really want to focus on a particular song. So, every once and while, I’m going to do a post about a song of the day (sotd), and I hope [...]
