Day 70: Fool's Gold - Wild Window

Today a song for your ipod for the coming week. To which you listen to when you're bored, when you feel tired or when you just want to hear some nice music. A song that you can listen to all over and over again.

It's from Fool's Gold, an LA collective that have been around since 2007 and who combine western pop with african music influences. You may know them from their song the dive, also posted below as a little double treat for this great sunday. Todays other song is from their second album 2011 called "Leave no Trace" and it's great as well.. Enjoy Wild Window

Day 69: Fedde le Grand vs Sultan & Ned Shepard ft. Mitch Crown - Running (Original mix)

TGIF.. So weekend and time to relax, chill, dance, party and have a good time... This song will certainly help you with it... Saw Fedde two times this year and both occurences were amazing.. Pacha in NYC and Loveland in Amsterdam.. Got some more stuff to do tonight but as promised another great song to listen too.. (especially from the third minute). Enjoya... !!

Day 68: Superheavy - Beautiful People

A couple of weeks ago I found a new cd on the internet and was immediately interested. It's from a new supergroup called SuperHeavy existing of Mick Jagger, Joss Stone, Dave Stewart, A.R. Rahman and Damian Marley.

The band wanted "Superheavy to be a convergence of different musical styles with music ranging from reaggae to ballads to Indian genre.

Beautiful people is one of the songs of their new self titled album (just released on September 19) and it's the first song I listened too. It combines the greatness of Jagger with the amazing soul voice of Stone and the reggae of Marley. Wow.

Really looking forward to my weekend with this album in my cd player...

Day 67: R.E.M. - We all Go Back to Where We Belong

Unfortately, at September 21, they made a decission to quit, after more than 30 years of making great music. I don't want too waste a lot of words describing the great music, I just want to introduce you their last single.

I think honestly this is a great goodbye song. Perfect feel, heartbreaking, an amazing tribute their entire career. And the timing..

A perfect song for a unfortunate moment.

Thank you Mike, Peter, Michael and Bill

Day 66: Coldplay - U.F.O.

From their new cd Mylo Xyloto this song made the biggest impression on me.

U.F.O. It's so pure, so beautifull, it made me quiet. I can keep listening to it again and again.. It reminds me of the songs of their first albums. Don't need a lot of words to describe the greatness.. Just listen.. And you'll be amazed..

Lord I don't know which way I am going
Which way river gonna flow
It's just seems that upstream, I keep rowing
Still got such a long way to go

Day 65: Mads Langer - Riding Elevators

A great new song from Mads Langer. Listen to it and let your thoughts take you away. This one will certainly be added to my favorite singer/songwriter top 20 of 2011. A song that sometimes describes my life.. Doors are opening, doors are closing, people come and go, but I am still riding elevators.. And let's think about that.. Now sleepy time...

Day 64: The Chevin - Champion

Early on a Sunday morning it's time for a great song to start the day with. The first time I listened to this song I actually had the idea that it was Keane, but on the other hand I wasn't sure, it was too energetic. Looking it up resulted in finding out that it was from The Chevin, a Leeds based band, that just released their first single. Internet reviewers compare the music with Two Door Cinema Club, Killers and also Keane. I think it's a mix of all of this.

It's rock, it's energetic, it's cool, it's really just good and therefore I put them on my promises list of 2012. Watch them and you'll be surprised.

And another thing. Like you may have noticed. After 1,5 week of song-absence, we're back, and we're going for a challenge: 365 single 30 day marathon. So, stay tuned and great songs will follow.
