Day 423 - Glasvegas - Daddy's Gone

DAY 423
Glasvegas - "Daddy's Gone"
From "Glasvegas"




Glenn introduced me to this band/song today and I am head over heels addicted to this song already!

Glasvegas is a Scottish alternative rock band that I know basically nothing about except that I really adore this song.

This track is like a rock throw back to 50's doo whop. I love it. I must learn more about these fellows!!! (Check out their Wikipedia page for some info.)

Check out the song and the video on this YouTube link!

Day 422 - The Beatles - I Want You (She's So Heavy)

DAY 422
The Beatles - "I Want You (She's So Heavy)"
From "Abbey Road"




Especially for it's time this song is so damn sexy! I was appreciating this song all over again while playing Beatles Rock Band and as I sang the lyrics I realized what a hot lil number this song is.

The bluesy guitar riffs and rhythm just give this composition a sultry vibe that was quite inventive and modern for the era.

Check out the song on this YouTube clip. It is so worth it. :)

Day 421 - Ida Maria - Stella

DAY 421
Ida Maria - "Stella"
From "Fortress Round My Heart"




I have been super lazy with my top 10K list but never fear, I am not finished!

So this Ida Maria CD is probably one of the best albums I have listened to in a LONG time. I love every song on the album so I am certain this will be one of MANY I choose by this awesome lady.

Stella is raw and amazing. Ida's vocals are so fierce on this track. I adore the way her vocals crack at the very end of the song.

This lady is one talented artist and one I truly hope sticks around for a good long time. She reminds me of Pat Benatar, Patti Smith from The Pretenders, and maybe even a little Kim Carnes. I love chick vocals that have that rough raspy edge!

Check out this YouTube link to watch the official video... it starts a lil slow so give it till the 30 second mark to get rolling. ;)
