Come together

23.Aug

As Florian Pittis once said, “no day without The Beatles“. So here is a song that describes, in its verses, each of the Beatles members. I the order of the verses, these are George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Lenon and Paul McCartney.

Enjoy Come Together below.

The Maid Freed from the Gallows

02.Aug

This is the title of a folk song that Led Zeppelin inspired from when creating their famous “Gallows Pole“. This story can be found in many versions, in various countries, like Finland, Sweeden, Hungary and, of course, England. The plot is the same, with a convicted lady asking the hangman to wait for the arrival of friends and relatives, who could offer some bribe :). While in the original versions the plan usually succedes, Page and Plant decided to go for the hangman accepting the bribe but still carrying on with the execution…

Close to me

One of the best songs from The Cure, in my view. A classic!

Don’t worry

22.Jun

Today’s single is an old rock / alternative track from the Romanian band AB4. It’s called Nu-ti fa griji in Romanian (approx “Don’t worry” in English) and was released in the 2000s, when the band had a big success. It remained one of the refference songs for the Romanian rock scene.

Enjoy AB4 – Nu-ti fa griji below

Some indie for today

21.Jun

Today’s song comes from The Black Keys and their latest album – El Camino. A combination of rock and indie that sounds excellent. I specially like the 70s rock sound that is present on the entire album and even more in this track.

Enjoy The Black Keys – Gold on the Ceiling below

Stay Away

19.Jun

It is a great feeling to listen to this song, really loud, while driving.

Enjoy Nirvana’s Stay Away, from the Nevermind album, below.

Simple Pleasures

16.Jun

Today’s song comes from Kasabian and their 2011 album – Velociraptor. With a Gorrilaz-like sound, it starts great and continues… okish :)

Enjoy Kasabian – Man of Simple Pleasures below. And have a great weekend!

Song of the week(end)

05.Jun

It’s been a weekend with quite some time spent in the car. Driving. And i’ve heard this so many times, it must be the song of the weekend. Even though I’m not the biggest fan of Florence + The Machine, this one sounds great.
