Great covers: Vazquez Sounds cover of Adele - Rolling in the deep

Thanks to a very good friend of mine I just discovered this song. I am always a great fan of good cover songs and especially if I like the original song. This little girl just blew me out of the water! I can't believe how much voice control she has and she's so young! And the pronunciation is almost perfect too! Wow, I hope we will see more to this kid! Enjoy!

More info about the fantastic trio!

New album: Dodgy - Stand Upright in a Cool Place

In the late 90's I was given three Dodgy albums at once. And I was very thankful, they were brilliant then and I still think they are great. It's not often that one likes all the songs of three albums. I hope that's not only because anything you listened to when you were 19 is steeped with memories and intense feelings. I was, as you can imagine, thrilled to find out that Dodgy had gotten back together and even more thrilled now, when I found out there is a new album coming out!
The new single sounds a lot like what they used to sound like, some kind of classic Dodgy sound. It's just catchy, smooth and wonderful. It's a bit like if someone has blended the classic rock bands of America of the 70's like The Eagles and Chicago and Noel Gallagher solo somehow, I think. To me it most of all feel like I have been asleep and someone put on real music again. Very curious about the rest of the album, get ready for the 20th of February! I am sure I will be back with more then.

Your own personal music tv channel? Yes, please!

Since MTV these days are more busy with everything in a teenagers life that has nothing to do with music, than actually playing music videos. Since VH1 is not available in a big scale, and maybe you want something really tailored to your taste? Well, I have the answer. Get a last.fm account. let it record what you are listening to. Go to Tim Bormans page. Log in with your last.fm account. And boom, it makes your own music tv channel from videos on YouTube that match the music you have listened to a lot on last.fm. Very easy to get addicted. Before we knew it, one and a half hour had passed... :)

The sound levels change a little of course, so you have to adjust that as you go along, and you sometimes get videos with just a still picture or lyrics, but if you don't want it, you can just skip to the next one. Plus, you get all kinds of delightful live clips!! Enjoy!And thanks, Tim.

Great music videos: Alanis Morisette - Hands Clean

I have been planing to write a blog post about this video a long time now, and finally I have time. There is not that much to say, the lyrics is brilliant and I love the way the video play up to it and at the same time makes it's own story. And of course the fact that it's on a tv. Somehow there is so much emotion of both sadness and happiness in both this video and this song. It thrills me and brings me to tears of emotion.
