Today's song is by such an incredible singer, who is also a Grammy winner. There are so many people who have never heard of this artist, and to them I say, you are being deprived. Imogen Heap has one of the most beautiful voices I have heard, and she does all the songwriting and composition herself. That is extremely impressive.I love they way she integrates manipulated electronic sounds so that they fit with mellower music. Even if you don't like this song, please check out her other music because it is so spectacular. Today's instrumental song comes from the movie Medal of Honor. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!
Willie Nelson and The Assassination of Jesse James
Today I have a cover of an incredibly famous song by another extremely famous artist. Willie Nelson has done a very beautiful rendition of one of Coldplay's best songs. This song was done for the movie The Judge, and it fits splendidly with the entire mood and tone and essence of the movie. What I love about this cover is that it sounds absolutely nothing like the original song. Willie Nelson is able to convey that same sentiment in a way that is completely different from the way the original song was done. This version has more of a country tone to it, but there is something more folk to this song. I think that is what makes this song so beautiful. The fact that is folk and has that warmth of perceived 1800s ranch homes. It has that warmth that comes with summer nights in the prairie, that beauty of the wide open space. Willie Nelson did an incredible job with this cover, and I love the fact that it is simply him and a guitar for a majority of the song. Everything about this song ...
