Song of the Day: Clearest Blue

Today’s song is Clearest Blue by CHVRCHES. Synth-Pop, because I had to keep this train moving. Reflective, peaceful and heartbreaking. Anyone who knows me understands that CHVRCHES is one of my favorite bands. I had the opportunity to… Read More

Song of the Day: Rivers

Today’s song is Rivers by Thomas Jack. Some tropical house from an Australian DJ. A lovely acoustic melody that shifts into smooth vocals and charming synth. This track has a nice Caribbean flavor that is calming to listen… Read More

Song of the Day: Riptide

Today’s song is Riptide by Vance Joy. Indie/Folk-pop. Wanted to keep the Indie selection going. Inherently a mellow, ‘beach’ feel from an Australian singer. As you pick it apart you really grow to appreciate the vocals. They blend… Read More

Song of the Day: The Night We Met

Today’s song is The Night We Met by Lord Huron. Indie/Folk-Rock (for when you want an evening alone). Reflective, peaceful and heartbreaking. Right off the bat you have those harmonized notes. From there it grows stronger and more… Read More

Song of the Day: If We Were Vampires

Today’s song is If We Were Vampires by Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit. Alt-country, for when you want some Americana. This won the Grammy for Best American Roots Song. Well deserved in my opinion. Maybe time running out… Read More

Song of the Day: Lady Marmalade

Today’s song is Lady Marmalade by ‘Various Artists’. A catchy pop/hip-hop song (with a twinge of soul for good measure) from the Moulin Rouge! soundtrack. Nothing against the original made famous by Patti LaBelle. This version for the soundtrack… Read More

Song of the Day: Just a Girl

Today’s song is Just a Girl by No Doubt. New wave alt-rock from a punk ska band. Still blows my mind that this band was the start of Gwen Stefani’s career. She was in it with her brother,… Read More

Song of the Day: Born This Way

Today’s song is Born This Way by Lady Gaga. Electro-pop. An extremely empowering song that has such an eclectic mix. For all of the artists from my teenage years, I have a heavy appreciation for Lady Gaga. Her work… Read More

Song of the Day: Nothing Really Matters

Today’s song is Nothing Really Matters (Afrojack Remix) by Mr. Probz. An R&B power ballad (this one remixed to add more electronic elements). Very little in common with the tone of the original. Not sure why this one sticks out… Read More

Song of the Day: Million Questions

Today’s song is Million Questions by Urban Contact. Some light, melodic electronic music. Of course it has a drop, because why wouldn’t it? Drum kit. Heavy base skewing. Electronic flares and (a few) wub-wub elements. I should hate it,… Read More
