It's A Video Day

Let's talk....
I thought that today would be a video day, so I'll post a few videos for you to enjoy. I also found a great place to explore music, it's called Last.fm. It's a lot like Pandora, but you don't have to sign up to start listening. You just type in the name of an artist you like and Last.fm will begin playing songs in the style of that artist. I like the feature that allows you to play the station in a pop-up window so you can minimize it, and keep on browsing. To try it out click here - Last.fm

Now, the first video - Norah Jones' 2002 hit "Don't Know Why"


This next video is a little older, but still a great song, and an example of the diversity of the genre Smooth Jazz. Check out the laid-back sax work on this song. It's "Englishman In New York" by Sting:



This last video is a fun take on an old song by Ray Charles, the video is silly, but it's a great song. If you haven't seen the movie 'Planes, Trains and Automobiles' with Steve Martin and the late John Candy, you ought to - the scene where John Candy sings along with this song is hilarious!


This morning's song - "Mas Que Nada" by Marc Antoine on the 2001 CD Crusin'. This song was made famous by Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66, but I think Marc has the better version. Sergio also did a version in 2006 with the Black-eyed Peas - still no competition.

So, Jsatcs....

We'll talk....
