Enter your search terms. Saturday, February 14, 2009. MTV, The Way It Used To Be! Hey, I just upgraded my TV to HD, and of course had to sign up for HD programming through Comcast. Because of this, I found a great HD station that has some awesome music programming. I haven't seen so many live concerts since MTV stopped playing music, and they are all filmed and broadcast in HD! How sweet is that? One of my favorites was Paolo Nutini. Here is the video (in "slightly less" than HD quality):. Genesee County...

Either on their tours, late night talk show rounds, or from videos that you can find on the internet, the question that might come to mind is, "Just how many people are in this band, anyway? Style group is actually the brain-child of 2 London-based sound engineers named Henry Bins and Sam Hardaker. I thought the song "The ...

Enter your search terms. Tuesday, November 9, 2010. God Willin' and the Creek Don't Rise. By Ray LaMontagne and The Pariah Dogs. Heartache. That's the way this album starts with the upbeat blues-shuffle song "Repo Man". With an angry vocal tone that sounds a lot like Joe Cocker, Ray LaMontagne sings about not taking his lover back after the word is out that she has been rejected by her current fling. "What makes you think that I will take you back again? I ain't your Repo Man! Just got to get me somewhere.

The Beat Writer: John Mayer - Continuum
http://thebeatwriter.blogspot.com/2007/12/john-mayer-continuum.html
Enter your search terms. Saturday, December 29, 2007. John Mayer - Continuum. I caught John Mayer a week or so ago on the PBS Show, "Austin City Limits". What a great show! Oh, well, as long as the music is good, don't change a thing, John! I'll close my eyes if I need to. One of my personal favorites is "Gravity", which kind of speaks about life's struggles, and how no matter how hard you try, there is always something trying to pull you down. I would call 3 of these songs Break-up Songs. God Willin' an...

http://thebeatwriter.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Enter your search terms. Sunday, February 17, 2008. Jack Johnson - Sleep Through The Static. We continue on in life, planting seeds and growing roots. “For what? 8221; he asks. Is it a place in the afterlife? To leave a legacy? Or is it, as he says, “at least something we can hold”? I think the most definitive answer is another lyric, “nobody really knows”. Nobody really knows anything. Except, I do know, that this is one great album! It’s gonna lift you up and let you down. After it takes all that.

Enter your search terms. Monday, December 24, 2007. KT Tunstall - Eye to the Telescope. I thought that KT Tunstall was fairly new to the music scene, but the 28 year old Scottish singer/songwriter/performer has apparently been playing with several different bands throughout the UK, and has developed a huge following there. As a matter of fact, her debut solo album, "Eye to the Telescope", although not released in the US until 2006, had already been on the charts in the UK since 2004. Suddenly I See" is a...

Enter your search terms. Saturday, July 19, 2008. Music and Intelligence Come Together! I have discovered a great site for free music that is tailored to your own musical tastes. It is called Pandora, The Music Genome Project, and you can find it at www.pandora.com. Basically, this is how it works:. Based on your opinion of it. If you give it a thumbs up. It will continue to deliver songs that their technology has decided you might like. If you give it a thumbs down. But I also got a song from Earshot.
