My Playlist

I’ve been listening to a lot of different music lately, and here’s a list of some of my favorites.

Chainsaw by Daniel Merriweather - once I started listening to this song I couldn’t stop. I LOVE the intro, and my favorite part of the song is -"giving myself to you is like giving myself to a chainsaw - you keep cutting me open wide. Is it the only thing that you’re good for?" Sounds gruesome, but its a great song.

Who am I to say, and Bring me Flowers by Hope - It seems like everyone knew about Hope before I did. I just recently started listening to her music and fell in love with her voice. I couldn’t stop singing "bring me flowers, and talk for hours, ooh I like you, ooh I like how you make me feel"

Storybook Fiction by Sachal Vasandani - I think I’m starting to like jazz. Never been a big fan of that genre, but Sachal Vasandani has inspired me to give it a chance. He has a wonderful voice. You should also check out Naked as We Came. It's the first song of his that caught my attention.

First Dance Song by Nya Jade - Just recently got Nya’s new CD "The Road to Adam", and this is one of my favorite tracks. I’m excited to go see her perform @ her album release on March 27th. Its going to be a fun night.

Go on girl by Ne-yo - I’m beginning to realize more and more just how much I like Ne-yo’s music I couldn’t stop listening to this song yesterday. Just over and over and over. I should start paying more attention to him.

Suffocate by J.Holiday - I love this song, but I’m not so excited about the rest of the album.

Lets Stay together by Al Green - some good old school

These arms of mine by Otis Redding - I’ve been wanting to find some of his music and the other day I went into Best Buy and found an awesome collection of about 30 of his songs. Now I’m happy :)

Everything by Humble - "Life is everything...we can be anything when Jah is the pilot of your plane". Great inspiration. I LOVE REGGAE MUSIC. You can’t be sad and you can’t sit still when you listen to it...or at least I can’t.

Always happy to know that Sachal is turning you on to jazz. He will be very happy to hear he has a new convert. He would say, though, that his interpretation of Naked As We Came is more about everlasting love than about dying.

Thanks for listening. Gail Boyd, Sachal Vasandani's manager. svjazz.com

Hi Gail,
Thank you for taking the time to read my blog. It looks like I need to listen to Naked as We Came again. I truly appreciate the feedback, and I look forward to hearing more music from Sachal.
