Remember on the Season Finale of last season’s Grey’s Anatomy when Izzie AND George were dying?  Whoa!  What an intense cliffhanger and a perfect song to capture the drama.

“No one follows someone who sits on the sidelines.  Never.” -Bob Lefsetz I woke up this morning to find this phrase in my e-mail inbox, courtesy of Bob Lefsetz e-mail subscription.  Popular musical ranter, Bob Lefsetz’ blog was recommended to me by social media/music business mastermind, Tony Caporale.  This particular phrase hit home.  Let me explain why… [...]

Hallelujah! Today is an amazing day! Easter Sunday, 2010. I should be going to Church this morning, but having been corrupted by an overzealous Christ Converter a few years back, I’m still struggling to find my way back to the House of Prayer. In the meantime, I do hear the divine every day as a [...]

After analyzing my site statistics, I noticed that my Countdown or “Top” lists get the most amount of site traffic.  Since I’m not too proud to go for the short and dirty to get more people to the site, I thought I’d start a Top 5 campaign of the best music for each month.  Even [...]

I can’t say I’ve often wondered what Darth Vader’s dreams sound like – but after marinating on indie-pop band Slow Runner’s tagline for their new EP Ghost Rendition announcement video, (Ghost Rendition: It Sounds Like Darth Vader’s Dreams, I’m thinking  maybe Darth Vader’s musical tastes lean toward the ”lyrical pop music shot out into space“ variety. Paste Magazine honored Slow Runner as one [...]

My girlfriends and I have often sat around and discussed the inner-complexities of our failed relationships and we noticed they have a very common theme.  They go something like this:  ”It started out GREAT!  He was so perfect and sweet to me!  And then I don’t know what happened.  He became disconnected and a total [...]

I thought about doing a review for classic crooner, Michael Buble’s show in Atlanta (well, really it’s more like Duluth, Georgia – W-A-Y up north for a girl who lives right in the heart of Atlanta) but his show opened up more questions than I had answers to. I’ll start with a few things he did [...]

He may look like a little British hobbit, but DAMN, Jamie Cullum puts on an electrifying performance! I’ve been a fan of Jamie Cullum for many years now.  Evidently, my nomination for the highly esteemed Chozen Award has left me pretty cocky.  I decided I would send Jamie a Facebook e-mail earlier this week.  Maybe his career aspirations included being [...]

It is indeed Oscar season.  As I prep to watch the Red Carpet Arrivals and expertly judge the outfits of America’s glorified royalty (read: actors), I’m thinking about awards and what makes somebody good enough to be chosen to win.  About a week ago, I noticed that my home boy, Gareth Asher had posted news about [...]

THE MUSIC WORLD is having a full-on identity crisis. As much as people are drawn to the spectacle of the flashing lights and over-the-top over-produced music (long live Lady Gaga), there also seems to be a movement of music lovers seeking a more exposed and honest sound.  That stripped, under-produced simplicity of a well-crafted song is a refreshing change [...]
