Cheers Darlin
You may have heard of this Irish fellow named Damien Rice. He's good.
This is his song "Cheers Darlin'" a sort of tongue-in-cheek "celebration" for a crush who has chosen another. Damien Rice is really good at using emotion in his singing. This particular song can be found on his debut album "O" and it's the 7th track. Aside from the emotion in his singing, I dig the use of clarinet and strings.

Fame
What happens when David Bowie, John Lennon and a guitarist named Carlos Alomar start jamming together one night?
The answer is the first number on hit for David Bowie in 1975. Here's "Fame"
I suppose the temptation today is to make a long tribute to Bowie since he died last week. Truth is, that I've never listened much to his music other than the hits, like the one that found its way into my head this morning. Obviously because I've been thinking about the guy and his music.
But really, it would come across as contrived and trite if I did some sort of dedication to his music, so I'll spare you. Maybe his death is a call to action for me to start listening to his tunes.
Regardless, I do like this song and I like that I learned about Lennon's involvement with the track.

Empire
Sunday I had a song stuck in my head. It's true!
This time it was by a little British rock band you may have heard of called Kasabian. WARNING! The letter "K" is really close to the letter "L" on a keyboard, so use caution when typing the name "Kasabian" because you might accidentally type "Lasabian." The last thing you need is to offend your lesbian friends.
Anyways, the song is called "Empire" and it's the opening (and title!) track to the band's 2006 sophomore album. There's something about this song, I just dig it, and the accompanying war-themed video which is almost as good, and as relevant as "War and Peace"
I hope you enjoyed listening to Lasabian, oops Kasabian today.

Half The Man
Yo Yo Yo. It's cold here in Utah and I'm already sick of the snow. Also potty training a new puppy in cold weather is literally the poops.
Oh, and guess what? (you're gonna be totally shocked by this.) I'm about to blog about a song that was stuck in my head! Yeah! Seriously.
Today it was Jamiroquai. My mother-in-law asked me the other day how to pronounce it. I didn't know. Kwai? or Kwey? on the end??!? Not sure.
Who cares! Their music is great.
Here is today's song: Half The Man, from the band's 1994 album "Return of the Space Cowboy"
This song is pretty clear, lyrically. It's about a guy who's half a person. Literally!
I'm LITERALLY half a person too. My other half is literally a person too. She's literally named Megan. I literally love her. I literally use the word literally in place of seriously and totally. And I literally know what literally means even though lots of people don't.
Jay Kay (of Jamiroquai) isn't literally half a person. But figuratively he is without his lady, just like me! And guess what's super rad? Me and my Megan celebrated 10 years of marriage this week. Isn't this a great song that I can use on this post to tell you about our anniversary! It literally is!
