January

I doubt you'll find happy songs about the month of January. After you leave January 1st, it's just a downhill fall into cold, wet and miserable. But we will always have the music, regardless of how things go.

Here's a few January jams.



Goo Goo Dolls - January Friend





mewithoutYou - January 1979





Black Label Society - January





Elton John - January





Tori Amos - Black-Dove (January)





The Decemberists - January Hymn






Keep the faith. Keep the music

Stuck In My Head: January 2015

New year, new music!

Well, not quite yet. But, here's a trio that have been kicking around my head the past two months.






I had the pleasure of seeing these guys play a small acoustic set over the winter, and they were tremendous. Sadly, they didn't play this song; but I was reminded how much I loved the lead singer's voice.







I would never call myself a big fan of Fleetwood Mac, solely because of Stevie Nicks. I can't do that voice. Just can't. She's so awful. BUT Christine McVie has an incredible voice (and Lindsey Buckingham ain't half bad either) and I enjoy the songs she sings on. Also, what a 70's video. LOL







This is one of those songs that has slowly grown on me to the point where I currently love it. I don't know much about George Ezra, but I'd sure love to hear more from him.


Until next time :)
