Happy Hump Day everyone! Here's a groovalicious tribute song to legendary New York disc jockey Todd Terry, and the song is classic house. Check it out...
I just finished watching the series finale of The Originals, a spinoff series of The Vampire Diaries that follows the trials and tribulations of the Michaelson family, Klaus, Elijah, Freya, Rebecca, Cole, Finn and Marcel, the original vampires of the world. Throughout the series, there was one theme that represented the very heart of the show, one that shone through in its final moments, and that is the vow that they all kept to one another throughout, Always and Forever, and that's just how the show ended.
Many of my fellow horror enthusiasts would probably say the same thing as I, and that is even throughout all of the supernatural storylines, and mystical qualities of a good show such as this, we are presented a story to which we all can relate, a story about the human condition, and here it is love and undying support for family. To me, today's song would have been a good representation of the finale and the series itself, as the narcissistic and self-serving members of the Michaelson family each found redemption in the end, and the realization that they all did their very best, tied up the show in a very emotional way. So cheers to The Originals, a series that I will always cherish.
Diplo's latest track is a bona fide throwback to classic house music, with an infectious back beat and a hypnotic vocal. Great jam! Here's On My Mind...
Aussie singer/songwriter Quinn Lewis is someone who's been cropping up into my musical awareness and I finally decided to post one of his songs. Empty is a beautiful, soft, tender and catchy tune that deserves some attention. Check out Empty...
Today's song goes out to all of my wonderful friends who've have been and continue to be people upon whom I can lean. You all know that the feeling is mutual and if you're ever in need of someone to lean on, I'm here. I love you all!
Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you won't let show
You just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
You just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on
If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me (call me)
If you need a friend (call me) call me uh huh(call me) if you need a friend (call me)
If you ever need a friend (call me)
Call me (call me) call me (call me) call me
(Call me) call me (call me) if you need a friend
(Call me) call me (call me) call me (call me) call me (call me) call me (call me)
This morning, about a 1/3 of the country weeps as another gloats, and yet the final third just doesn't care. The first month of this new year was a long and difficult one and it ended on the worst of notes, for sometime in the future, historians will point to the date January 31st, 2020, and declare that this was the day democracy died.
Cigarettes After Sex is an El Paso, Texas-based band and their music is ambient, chill, and very good. Here's a typically relaxing track off of their second album, Cry. Check out Touch...
This third collaboration between master deejay/producers David Guetta and MORTEN is being described as the newest version and the future of house music. Check out Make It To Heaven...
Here's another favorite Christmas song, one that I remember made me cry when I was a little boy. I never knew that Frank Sinatra recorded a version of it. It's pretty good, as you might imagine! Here's The Little Drummer Boy...
Since it's Flashback Friday, I wanted to post one of my favorite all-time Christmas songs. This one was first recorded way back in 1958 and has been used in countless movies and television shows. So yeah, here's Brenda Lee...
We've got another talented Swede in today's post with an obscure-till-now artist called KIDDO. Her newest represents the best in modern pop (rock?). Check out the hella cool Dead Alive...
Here's a sweet little jam by deejay/producer Gryffin, featuring the vocals of folk artist Noah Kahan and a little production help from Seven Lions. Cool song! Here's I Need Your Love...
Harry Styles dropped his new album, Fine Line, on Friday and though I'm still digesting it, several of the songs are already burying themselves into my consciousness. One of my favorites is this one, Sunflower, Volume 6. It's sunshiney and happy and well, take a listen and see what I mean. Here's a live performance of the song, as well as the original audio below it.
I think we can all say now that Lizzo is a bona fide star! With a hot, if not a little girly, new collaboration with Ariana Grande, I can't hold off waiting for a video to post. Here's the catchalicious Good As Hell...
Here is a hot hot new jam that's perfect for a late night dance, a little neo-disco head bopper dance floor filla! So scroll down, click play, put your head back, and bop...
