Dan Mangan - Road Regrets

I've talk about Dan's music with many people, and will continue doing because his music is just amazing. In my opinion one of the best canadian singers-song writers. His music is full of emotion, with beautiful contrast and passion. Check out Road regrets, this time with the official video and if you can, watch it in high resolution with your headphones or earbuds, and tell me if you don't feel goosebumps.

The Beatles - Real love

I know, they are the most famous band in the world, and they also are my most favorite band of a time. They made many of the most beautiful songs to this day, and they genius will live forever. Chances are you already heard everything they made, but this wont stop me.
This song is very special, it is John Lennon's and is worked out by the remaining Beatles alive in the 90's after his dead, as part of the second Anthology album.
One verse that I love is:

Thought I'd been in love before,
but in my heart I wanted more.
Seems like all I really was doing
was waitin' for you.

What is compelling about this lines is how he acknowledges feeling something before, but recognizes that it wasn't enough. Then he goes to say that all that was like a preparation, a preparation for love. At least thats what I take.

The music is very easy listening but it also carries a lot of feeling. The producers made wonders to get a clean sound from the handheld divice Lennon used for it recording.

Here is it, enjoy.

Arcade Fire - Suburban War

Arcade Fire - Suburban War
Sorry for the lack of posts last week, I was uninspired. This week starts with one of my favorites bands right now: The Arcade Fire. I like the music of this song a lot, but while I was working today, I heard one of the verses and felt so identified. It reads like this:

Now the cities we live in
Could be distant stars
And I search for you
In every passing car

Dont know why, but that sound like very real human emotions to me.
Hope you like it.

Empire state of mind (part II) Broken down - Alicia Keys

I usually avoid this kind of stuff, you know, radio stuff, but some how I think this song is above the typical radio sound, probably because of all that piano. Here you have it Empire state of mind (part II) Broken down - Alicia Keys (again without official video)
