Here is a little more New Orleans music for ya

Ooh Poo Pah Doo -Trombone Shorty

Sweeeeeeeeeet! :dancinkitty1: :wigglypig:

So glad you all are enjoying the tunes :) I have plenty more to share..lol

Here is one of my many favorite singers..

If you have never heard of Amos Lee, please do yourself a big favor and check him out.
He is a simple blues, folk and jazzy mix kind of guy. I fell in love with him years ago :

Being a gal from the South I just happen to love this song a little bit more

Southern Girl - Amos Lee

Farewell my sweet
Well the time that was coming
The road has begun to move beneath my feet
Good things come to an end
Well I hope through the pain
The heartache and strain we can still remain friends

Something about a southern girl
Make me feel right
In a Mississippi morning
She's an angel in flight
In a blink of an eye
She'll be out of your sight
Something about a southern girl

You're a soft melody
Well I swear that I heard
From a lost mockingbird stuck up in a tree
We got a lot going on
Even though I'm not here
Please don't shed any tears for me day when I'm gone

Something about a southern girl
Make me feel right
In a Mississippi morning
She's an angel in flight
In a blink of an eye
She'll be out of your sight
Something about a southern girl

I never meant to leave you lonely
It was only in your mind
Girl, I never meant to leave you lonely
It was only a matter of time

Something about a southern girl
Make me feel right
In a Mississippi morning
She's an angel in flight
In a blink of an eye
She'll be out of your sight
Something about a southern
Something about a southern girl

OMG what an incredible voice! So haunting. It made the hair stand up on the back on my neck. I love him! I've got to get some of his music to play on my morning show. Wow! Thanks for leading me to him Jen~

Oh sweetie, you are most welcome. I love, love, love his voice. I have turned two of my friends on to him and they are in love :)
I love the fact that he is just real,no pomp. Just him and his guitar and that beautiful voice :)

I have all of his cd's

Here are a couple more you might like too :)

Arms of a Woman



Windows Are Rolled Down

Maaaan....this guy is totally breaking my heart! I love it!

Oh yes he will do that. I have been listening to him and Stevie Nicks today....lol

I really like his sound, too, Jen.
I particularly like Arms of a Woman...very nice song & I love the way Amos sings it.

Thank you for stepping up to the mike and singing for us at Sugah's Karaoke Bar & Grill, m'lady.

Just HAD to share this one! We can always use a chuckle~

Cute!

I absolutely adore this singer and love this song.
(I know my friend Elle Belle does too ;)

Paolo Nutini - Last Request

Slow down, Lie down,
Remember it's just you and me.
Don't sell out, bow out,
Remember how this used to be.

I just want you closer,
Is that alright?
Baby let's get closer tonight

[chorus:]
Grant my last request,
And just let me hold you.
Don't shrug your shoulders,
Lay down beside me.
Sure I can accept that we're going nowhere,
But one last time let's go there,
Lay down beside me

Oh, I've found, that I'm bound
To wander down that one way road.
And I realise all about your lies
But I'm no wiser than the fool I was before.

I just want you closer,
Is that alright?
Baby let's get closer tonight
[chorus]

Oh, baby, baby, baby,
Tell me how can, how can this be wrong?

[chorus x2]

Yeah, lay down beside me.

One last time let's go there,
Lay down beside me

Woah! You've shared some artists I've never heard of before, but THIS one...
I really like his sound and this song is fabulous!
I can so see why you and Elle enjoy Paulo Nutini.
I can hear a Scottish (or maybe Irish) accent when he sings, but his name is VERY Italian.
He has a nice face, too, btw.

I'm going to do more research on Paulo and his music.
Do you have a favorite cd of his to recommend?

Thank you for sharing this beautiful song with us, Jen Jen.

I am so happy that you like him Lady S..

He is Scottish btw and his father is of Italian descent ;)

The album I have is from 2006 (which this song is on)
called These Streets.
I don't have his new one Sunny Side Up (yet)

I am so glad to introduce you all to some new music, I love to find and discover new people to listen to.

MUSE is one of my all time favorite bands, ever!

I have loved them before Twilight made them popular..

This is one of my favorite songs by them

That song and video look familiar. Have you ever shared it with us before?
I don't know Muse, so surely someone else must've shared it with me...

I've written down "These Streets" by Paulo Nutini and am going to look for the cd this weekend.

I think you will really like that CD my friend...

Here is a little mellow song for you all

Baby I'm A Fool - Melody Gardot
(I just love her, she is a smooth jazz singer)

How was I to know that this was always
Only just a little gama to you?
All the time I felt you gave your heart
I thought that I would do the same for you

Tell the truth, I think I should have
Seen it coming from a mile away
When the world you say are
Baby, I'm a fool who thinks
It's cool to fall in love

If I gave a thought to fascination
I would know it wasn't right to care
Logic doesn't seem to mind that
I am fascinated by your love affair

Still my heart would benefit from
A little tenderness from time to time but never mind
'Cause, baby, I'm a fool
Who thinks it's cool to fall in love

Baby, I should hold on just a moment
And be sure it's not for vanity
Look me in the eye and tell me
Love is never based upon insanity

Even when my heart is beating

Hurry up the moment's fleeting
Kiss me now, don't ask me how

'Cause,baby, I'm a fool
Who thinks it's cool to fall
Baby, I'm a fool
Who thinks it's cool to fall
And I would never tell if you became a fool
And fell in love

You won't regret it!

Yesterday was my Momma's birthday and this is one of her favorite all time songs

Here is a song that when I am feeling down it just makes me feel so much better. I cry every time I hear it on the radio. Here is Rascal Flatts - I Won't Let Go.

"I Won't Let Go"

It's like a storm
That cuts a path
It breaks your will
It feels like that

You think you're lost
But you're not lost on your own
you're not alone

I will stand by you
I will help you through
When you've done all you can do
If you can't cope
I will dry your eyes
I will fight your fight
I will hold you tight
And I won't let go

It hurts my heart
To see you cry
I know it's dark
This part of life
Oh it finds us all
And we're too small
To stop the rain
Oh but when it rains

I will stand by you
I will help you through
When you've done all you can do
And you can't cope
I will dry your eyes
I will fight your fight
I will hold you tight

And I won't let you fall
Don't be afraid to fall
I'm right here to catch you
I won't let you down
It won't get you down
you're gonna make it
Yeah I know you can make it

Cause I will stand by you
I will help you through
When you've done all you can do
And you can't cope
And I will dry your eyes
I will fight your fight
I will hold you tight
And I won't let go
Oh I'm gonna hold you
And I won't let go
Won't let you go
No I won't

I love Rascal Flatts! Thanks for sharing one of my faves!

I gotta a good one!

John Cougar Mellencamp
Hurts So Good

When I was a young boy,
Said put away those young boy ways
Now that I'm gettin' older, so much older
I love all those young boy days.
With a girl like you,
With a girl like you,
Lord knows there are things we can do, baby,
Just me and you.
Come on and make it
CHORUS:
Hurt so good.
Come on baby, make it hurt so good.
Sometimes love don't feel like it should.
You make it hurt so good.

Don't have to be so exiting.
Just tryin' to give myself a little bit of fun, yeah.
You always look so invitin'
You ain't as green as you are young
Hey baby, its you.
Come on, girl, now, its you.
Sink your teeth right through my bones, baby.
Let's see what we can do.
Come on and make it

Chorus

I ain't talkin' no big deals
I ain't made no plans myself.
I ain't talkin' no high heels
Maybe we could walk around all day long,
walk around all day long.

Chorus twice

Hey, hey

Thought I'd step up to the microphone and sing a song I've always liked.

We're In This Love Together
by Al Jarreau

It's like a diamond ring it's a precious thing
And we never want to lose it
It's like a favorite song that we love to sing
Every time we hear the music

And we're in this love together
We got the kind that lasts forever
We're in this love together
And like berries on the vine it gets sweeter all the time

It's like a rainy night in candlelight
And, ooh it's so romantic
We got the whole thing working out so right
And, and it's just the way we planned it

Today we're in this love together
We got the kind that lasts forever
Don't you know that we're in this love together
And like berries on the vine it gets sweeter all the time

Don't you know we're in this love together
We got the kind that lasts forever
We're in this love together
We got a lot of time for love forever and ever

Don't you know we're in this love together
We got the kind that lasts forever
Tell you that we're in this love together
Why don't you find love that has broken the law

Don't you know that we're in this love together
We got the kind that brings to mind a favorite song
Don't you say that we're in this love together
We got the time that makes us all night long, hey hey

We're in this love together.

In lieu of our recent trip to Oahu, I had to share this.

It is one of my fave versions of this song by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole of Honolulu.
Israel Kamakawiwoʻole was a Hawaiian musician whose heart was as big as he was.
At age 38, he died of weight-related respiratory illness on June 26, 1997.
In December of 2010, Mr. Kamakawiwo'ole was named one of the 50 great voices on National Public Radio.

You have, no doubt, heard this version of Over the Rainbow on the Meet Joe Black, Finding Forrester or 50 First Dates movie soundtracks, if not on the radio.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow (as done) by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole

OK this one's for Gabby
Ooooo oooooo ohoohohoo
Ooooo ohooohoo oooohoo
Ooooo ohoohooo oohoooo
Oohooo oohoooho ooooho
Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Once in a lullaby ii ii iii
Somewhere over the rainbow
Blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Dreams really do come true ooh ooooh
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me ee ee eeh
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops thats where you'll find me oh
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dream that you dare to,why, oh why can't I? i iiii

Well I see trees of green and
Red roses too,
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the dark and I think to myself
What a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying, I...I love you
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more
Than we'll know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world (w)oohoorld

Someday I'll wish upon a star,
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top that's where you'll find me
Oh, Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dream that you dare to, why, oh why can't I? I hiii ?

Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo
Ooooo oooooo oooooo

~*~

Have a listen!

Oh how I love that song Sugah.

Billy Currington
Love Done Gone


Don't worry, baby, sometimes things change
Nothin' we can do about it now, no way
This doesn't come easy, but that's just life
We can't keep pretendin' everything's alright
We told each other it was love before
The simple truth is it just ain't no more
The bells stop ringin', the music won't play
The crazy little feelin' that's faded away
Like snowflakes when the weather warms up
Like leaves on the trees when the autumn comes
Like the dogwood blossoms in a late spring rain
All the disappearin' bubbles in a glass of champagne
Like a red kite lost in a blue sky wind
I don't know where the good times end when
It ain't nothin' we ever said or ever did wrong
It's just love done gone
I don't regret a single thing that we did
Anytime together, we ever spent
I wouldn't change a thing, baby, you know
Sometimes we gotta just go with the flow
Like snowflakes when the weather warms up
Like leaves on the trees when the autumn comes
Like the dogwood blossoms in a late spring rain
All the disappearin' bubbles in a glass of champagne
Like money in a slot machine
Don't know what happened to you and me
It ain't nothin' we ever said or ever did wrong
It's just love done gone
It's just love done gone
It's just love done gone

Such lovely tunes, and along with them lovely sentiments, are being shared here. I love it!
