Song of the Day - So Cold - Mariah Carey

Okay now, so this s getting ridiculous!  Today is day #4 of my own personal cold hell.  Turns out I've got such a uniquely industrial furnace that the part I need is hard to find.  Lucky me!  It's 46 degrees in here as I type this, but at least I've got a nice space heater to keep me toasty.  Oh, and by the time my furnace is fixed, the temps outside will be well into the 50's.  Anyway, here's a great song that I haven't heard in like forever...

Song of the Day - Frozen - Madonna

Every so often, the song I post here reflect what is going on in my life at the moment.  Yesterday's song, and especially today's are two such tunes.  You see, on Saturday, the gas valve on my furnace broke and there was no place to get a replacement over the weekend.  On what was the coldest day of the weekend, that was a bad thing.  The news hit me hard on Saturday as I came to the realization that it would be a very long, cold weekend, and so I tried to put on a better face yesterday.  With temps in the single digits last night, my house at the moment is a whopping 4 degrees.  Yes, I'm Frozen, but hopefully not for too much longer...

Shawn Mendes has been flying high ever since the latter part of 2016 with his stellar sophomore album, Illuminate.  Here's the debut single off that record, a song I woke up with in my head this morning.  Check out Treat You Better...

It's been a long, long time since we've heard anything from Mary J., and a long time since even I've taken a listen.  While we wait patiently for new music from the Queen of Hip Hop Soul, at least we've got plenty of old songs from her catalog to listen to, including this, one of my all time favorite jams.  Check out Family Affair...

Song of the Day - Reflections - MisterWives

Here's one of those wonderful songs that came and went sadly without much fanfare.  Though I wouldn't expect this 2014 neo-disco/girl-group jam to hit it big again, at least I can give it a little new life here on John's Music World.  Check out the cool cool Reflections...

We continue with some of the best dance/pop songs of 2016 with a very cool tune and an equally fun video by Chinese newcomer Jane Zhang, with a little help from Timbaland.  The lighthearted tune is replete with great vocals and a pleasant, snap your fingers kinda melody.  Click play below...you won't be disappointed!
