Listening to Aquilo's 'ii' album, 'Ghost' is by far a favourite of mine, simply magical https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNlDO5-WOUg

R.I.P. Abi Ofarim (1937-2018). In the '60s he and especially his wife Esther were very popular in Germany.

... and now Christian Li from the same competition with stunning performance of Vivaldi's Summer, to think that he is only 10 years old...such skill and performer's character being there already

Soooo don't judge me, but Eurovision bug infected me over the weekend

Actually, quite a few interesting songs there this year, but one of them just cannot get out of my head https://youtu.be/eDSgs6syrgg, yes - some ppl are calling it a guilty pleasure or fast food music, some telling that it is not difficult so no need to sing it well, but seeing rehearsals before contest there is a dynamic energy emanating from performance that catches eyes. And to dance AND sing that good at the same time looking like flawless diva...

Jay Ungar - the Brother's Keeper soundtrack and of course Ashokan Farewell (can I dream of Jason Brown skating to the latter, yes?)

Nothing But Thieves doing covers on their own terms, it just cannot get much better than this..., from arrangement, vocals, the whole vibe over songs, just fantastic!

An unforgettable song by Mink DeVille: Each Word's A Beat Of My Heart (1983)

I'm flyin', I'm flyin' high like a bird
But my fluttering wings can't keep you from pullin' me down

An amazing track by Two Feet:

Catchy song for past Pocky campaign. J Soul Brothers - Share the Love https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vL4e47iJhZ4

Nice!! NieR:A has the coolest music. Yoko Shimomura's works for FFXV are magical too (but NieR:A still tops).

Christina Aguilera 'Twice' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1jzwV_s8_Y

I am not a big fan of Christina, but the song is addictive for me, love how 'stripped' it is, with focus on vocals and emotion generated from them. Cannot wait for it being performed live!
