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

Song of the Day: Whole Wide World
Today’s song is Whole Wide World by Wreckless Eric. Punk-rock. One of my favorite build ups. The progression only grows more saturated and catchy as it continues. I need to thank the film Stranger than Fiction for introducing this… Read More

Song of the Day: Kiss Me
Today’s song is Kiss Me by Sixpence None the Richer. Pop/alt-rock. A soothing track that, while simple, gives a lot to be desired. Kinda irritated that kiss-cams keep playing this one, but what do you expect? It’s perfect for… Read More

Song of the Day: It’s a Beautiful Day
Today’s song is It’s a Beautiful Day by Michael Bublé. Pop-rock with hints of vocal jazz. An upbeat song that makes me less dour. There is an interesting story behind this track. Bublé states that it’s about a guy… Read More

Song of the Day: Because You Loved Me
Today’s song is Because You Loved Me by Céline Dion. This is listed as pop, but I think it falls more in line with a soulful ballad. I really enjoy Céline Dion. Her voice is exceptional and I’m rather… Read More

Song of the Day: Because Of You
Today’s song is Because Of You by Reba McEntire. Country-pop. Very little in common with the 2004 original by Kelly Clarkson. This is a duet, featuring both McEntire and Clarkson in parallel. What I enjoy about this one… Read More
