Just… give one reason by Tracy Chapman (USA). Great rhythm, great voice..!

“But Now I Am Back”, a very sensational song from Pink Martini’s (USA) latest album “Splendor In The Glass”. The little orchestra that plays music of the world without being world music (as band leader, Thomas Lauderdale describes the band’s sound) amazes us one more time with its astonishing rhythms and tunes. But now they are back…

A beatiful song by a very beatiful singer. Ayo (Germany), or better Joy Olasunmibo Ogunmakin, releases her first single, “Life Is Real”, in 2006 and prepares us for a very charming album, “Joyful” (2006). I enjoy very much – I find it extremely adorable – the way she is dancing and moving her body in this piece.
Tune of the Day: Toots & The Maytals – 54-56 Was My Number
posted by steliosk @ 9:00 AMSka, reggae, rock steady, or rock? It does not matter..! Just get up and move your body to the rhythm! Toots & The Maytals (Jamaica) in one of their most famous tunes. I listened to this song in the movie “This Is England” and it comes in my mind everytime I wanna get up and boost my mood.
