I know, I disappeared..I’m very sorry! I went on a short trip with some friends but, moreover, I still hadn’t recovered from the ending of 30 Rock :) Can you believe that wonderful show is over? I can’t.
But ehi, we’ve got to move on..so today I’m going to collect some songs I’ve been listening to in these days, hopefully they will accompany you in your days too!
First of all, “Skinny Love” by Bon Iver: I heard it sung by the incredible voice of Birdy (can you believe she is only 16??), so I decided to listen to the original and I definitely like it better!
But I have to admit I fell in love with Birdy’s voice too and I’m sure she is going to be a great singer, so I give her credit for that.
Then, I recently discovered Marina and the Diamonds and I absolutely adore her now! She’s got a very special voice, and I love the sound of her songs too..for the moment my favourite is “Teen Idle” . It’s a great song, with a powerful meaning and I think a lot of people can relate to it. Here is a special live version of it sung by Marina in London..enjoy!
After the video, some images of Marina!
Finally, “Dancing on my Own” , by Robyn: I heard this on the TV series Girls and I loved it!!
Here is the original version, and after that the beautiful scene where Hannah and Marnie dance on this song.
What do you think of these songs? Do you like them too?
Thank you for listening (literally) and stay tuned!!
