Keeping It Fresh

Today's song is by the sexy smooth Miguel. This song showcases his talent really well in my opinion. It gives us a good range with his falsetto voice, and we also get a good sense of his range while singing normally. Plus, this is a pretty catchy song and its one of those songs that you literally just chill to. Its kind of great! Today's instrumental song is just some nice, smooth, and relaxing R&B music. Its just one of those days! I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

Today I have new music for you from the one, the only....Linkin Park! Now we all know how freaking awesome Linkin Park is on their own, but once you add Steve Aoki into the mix (another freaking badass) well this song is the epitome of badassery and sick beats! Basically, this song will knock your socks off and send them to Neptune! This is one of the best songs I have heard from Linkin Park's new style-it may actually be one of the best songs I have ever heard from them! Today's instrumental song comes from the movie series The Matrix, which is pretty damn awesome as well. Today we just have an overload of awesomeness...I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

Today's song definitely takes on the emotional side of things. Jonathan Clay, what a beautifully poignant job he has done. This song just pulls the emotion out of you with both the lyrics and acoustic music in the background. Clay's soft and smooth vocals carry so much emotion and power in them that you really feel what he does. Whether you take the lyrics as him questioning why there is fighting, or what we should be fighting for, this song is just incredible beautiful. Today's instrumental song comes from the movie The Hunger Games. I just think the soft guitar solo and the song in general are absolutely incredible and beautiful.  I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

Okay, today's music is pretty interesting I think! Both songs I am posting are the same song, but completely different songs. This first song is Jay-Z's song, and is one of his most popular songs. It has a deep message and is just an overall awesome song! But today's second song is the reason I am so excited about this song. Hugo is a blues and country singer out of England who has completely redone this song. I absolutely love his version and I actually like it better than the original! This is the first time I have heard a bluesy rendition of a hip hop song and it is absolutely phenomenal! There is a distinct flair and unique quality to Hugo's rendition that left me speechless the first time I heard it. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

Today's music comes from a group in Switzerland called NONONO. I would just like to say that this song has an awesome whistle hook and it makes me feel really good! This song has the potential to reach anthem status in my opinion! But this song also has its heavy beats and percussion which creates a really steady base(no, not bass, although it does have quite a bit of bass) Today's instrumental song is by the ever incredible and ingenious Madeon. What I love about this song is that he takes pieces of different songs and incorporates them into his own original mix. You might recognize some Coldplay, Daft Punk, and Madonna. I also really really LOVE this music video. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

So today I am so lucky to be attending the Fun. and Tegan and Sara concert! I am so damn excited because these are two artists that are phenomenal live and have incredible and unique music. This first song is from Tegan and Sara, a twin sister duo who have a different style to their pop music. Today's instrumental song is by Fun. and is a version of their more popular songs because it is so energetic and, excuse the word play, fun! Now my thoughts to you is, go out and go to some concerts! These events are so wonderful and amazing and it creates a different connection to the artist. So go out there and find a concert that interests you! Please feel free to comment and let me know which concerts you all have been to and I hope you enjoy the music!

Today is a very important day in American society. This day marks the day that America was attacked on home soil and the Twin Towers fell in New York City. This is one of the most tragic days in American history, and my heart and prayers go out to everyone who passed, lost someone, and survived. Today's music consists of songs that expresses how we as a society feel and how through this tragedy we managed to unite and be strong.  I must warn you that the second video may be disturbing or painful. Please, do something kind today in the memory of those lost and if you know someone involved in this tragedy, a soldier, or veteran, give them a hug and remind them of how strong they are inside and how strong your community is.  I hope you enjoy and share the music and please feel free to comment!
