Due to my slacking off last week, and not posting a song-as I'm sure you noticed-I'm taking the liberty of throwing out to songs for your listening pleasure. As always, the youtube links will be pasted below!
The first song is "I Got A Woman" covered by the John Mayer Trio. This masterpiece of a song was originally written and performed by Ray Charles but most of you will probably recognize the chorus melody/hook from Kanye West's "Gold Digger." The Trio's version of the song is permeated with soul and energy. I absolutely love the way it sounds and I hope you do too!
The second song is from The Fray's new self-titled album. Has anyone listened to this album yet? In my opinion, it's better than their debut album. Track number eight is called, "Enough For Now." I'll be honest, I can't pinpoint exactly what this song is about. It seems to speak to a girl whose father walked out on her at a young age and the feelings associated with the experience sung from the perspective of the girl's friend, or maybe boyfriend? Help me out if you can decipher more than that.
