Some Songs

I've recently gotten into some mp3 blogs. Since I'm nothing if not an unoriginal (triple-negative anyone?), I'll occasionally post some songs that I like --- Starting now. Click the song titles for mp3s.

Iron and Wine and Calexico - 16, Maybe Less


This one is for Alexa. Iron and Wine most definitely brings out "Teddy-Bear Jeremy" as my friends would be apt to say. Sam Beam (the singer here) has an incredibly warm voice. It's a voice that was meant to sing sappy love songs and Iron and Wine works best when he does just that. This is always one of the first songs I listen to when I can't sleep. It is simply beautiful and definitely worth checking out.

Blackalicious - Black Diamonds and Pearls

I'm seeing these guys live for the first time tonight! Oh yes, white people dancing. I'll post my thoughts tomorrow maybe. So, the new CD hasn't grabbed me like Blazing Arrow did, but it's still pretty good, and this is one of my favorite tracks.
