Michou - Eavesdropping

Another fab video by the Canadian band [Windsor, ONT] Michou....

'Eavesdropping'....love the yellow balloons.

Wavin' Flag for Haiti

A team of over 50 Canadian artists lent their voices and talents for the relief efforts in Haiti. This is the Young Artists for Haiti performing the inspiring song 'Wavin' Flag' by Somali-Canadian rapper and musician, K'naan.

A really beautiful rendition.

The single is currently available on iTunes.

Tired Of Talking

My new favourite Canadian singer/songwriter (from Montreal). Jason Bajada.
Kind of reminds me of early Chris Isaak.

This is the video for 'Tired of Talking' from Jason's third album Loveshit.
The video is directed by Anton Josef.

Amanda Marshall....

On the way home from my 'Girl's Night Out' dinner last night [we went to Trella's on Preston Street...nice restaurant...their sauteed rapini are just like my mom makes but they could dim the house lights...a little too bright for dinner out...but worth checking out] this song came on the radio...haven't heard it in ages. I cranked it up and belted out the lyrics...

Amanda Marshall was one of my favourite Canadian singers...and then she fell off the face of the musical planet.

Although in her defense, she did say in an interview this past May that she was recording in a Toronto studio...working on a new album. Her plans are to release the album in early 2010 with promises that a tour will follow. That's one release I can't wait to hear...

Until then, here are my three favourite tracks by Amanda...starting with the song that was on the radio.

Birmingham...



Beautiful Goodbye...



Let It Rain...
