Day 98: Marlon Roudette - New Age (live at Giel Ochtendshow)

On Friday I always have make a choice. I will either write about a nice, touchy, one that moves me song or one with a beat, to celebrate the start of the weekend. It depends on the mood I'm in and the plans I have for the weekend. This weekend will be relaxt, with some nice stuff to do (drinking a couple of beers, a nice meeting with friends tomorrow) but also some studying on Sunday.

And because I also feel quite relaxt at the moment it's time for a beautiful, relaxing song. It's from Marlon Roudette, a 29 year old singer songwriter from London, who is a former member of the 'one hit wonder' band Matafix. This song has already been a # 1 hit in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Especially the piano loops are one thing that make this song special. Add to that the lyrics and the sweet, soulful voice of Roudette, which even come better to the fore in other songs of his debut album, and a great song is born.

This version is recorded in the morning show of dutch DJ Giel Beelen and I wanted to share this version today as this one is even better than the original.

Have a nice and relaxing weekend...
