The Song Of The Day! Local Edition!


Today, my friends, I have a very speical Song of the Day to deliver to you. I thought for my first one back I'd go all big.


Normally my taste in music varies. Mostly the gerne of music I won't lay a finger on is country. I can safely say the Dave Mathews band is not one of my favorites, and won't be found on my ipod. So changing my mind, is in fact, an acomplishment. And that's exactly what my friend Evan Ferrell has done with his cover of "Stay or Leave" and that's why I choose if for today's Song of the Day. I enjoy this song mainly because Evan's voice is very soothing. I like the striped down element that you can only get when recording with less than professional equitment (a rock band mic does just as good of a job!. It reminds me of something I could fall alseep to, which in this case is a good thing. While people will aruge wether or not it with stands to the orginal, I would like to congraudate Evan on creating a work that is his very own. He'll deffinatly be going places.

I'm Back in Action!!

First of all, I'd like to thank each and every one of you who read this from time to time. It means the world to me to know that atleast one person takes in my opioin.Hopefully, I'm giving you the greatest gift of all: good music.

Let me explain the hiatus: I was having Technical difficulties . Thats why sometimes I'd post the song of the day and it would only be up for an hour or so and then be taken off. Being the idiot I am, it took me a long to realize that they were being taken off because they held a link where you could download music. I tired to figure out a way around it, but I found myself getting more and more frustrated. I like giving you the option of being able to listen to the song of the day. Hopefully it opens doors to explore other music made by that particular artist, and maybe you dont like the song I picked and want to voice your opioin. I've come up with a solution where I can offer you a link to listen to the song but it cannot be downloaded but merely listened to on the computer. You can then decide for yourself if it's worth the 99 cents itunes makes you dish out.

The future: Readers, start checking here more often. I promise that I will be actively updating the site. I've got many things in mind for the up coming weeks. I need your help too! Send me bands, albums, and or songs you'd like me to check out and review. (check the references down below to contact me) I'm happy for anything you can throw out at me. Make sure you check back tomorrow for a speical edition of The Song of The Day! This one will be hitting close to home (take that literally!) for some of us.

I'd like to hear from you: You can always have my opioin, for whatever it is worth. But I'd like some feed back. Maybe you too enjoyed the song of the album? I would like you to voice your opioion. I know some of you may not be able to comment on this blogspot, but below I have listed a couple of alternative references to get ahold of me. If your comment is any good I'll throw it up here on the site for all too see and you'll get credit!

XOXO
Katie
