Jarrod Gorbel Does Alicia Keys - "No One"

I have been a fan of Jarrod Gorbel for several years. He is in the band The Honorary Title. I was heavily a fan probably during 2005 when I saw his band play live at the Troubadour in West Hollywood. I will always remember that day, I went with my brother to the concert, it was raining. The crowd was standing still the entire time just blankly staring at them. And so many people were taking up close snapshots with their cameras of Jarrod and he stopped and told us that we would remember the concert more with our minds as memories than the pictures itself. Everyone put the cameras away. He looked as cute if not cuter in person. I left the show early because I had made plans with my then friend to go to a Deep House club. I felt like everyone watched me walk out of the gig since I was on the complete opposite side of the exit. It was semi awkward. I stood out in the rain for a little bit as my friend picked me up on the corner of Doheny and Santa Monica Blvd. We then went on our way to dance at the house club. I feel bad for abandoning my brother at the concert, I didn't tell him prior to the event that I was going to be leaving for my other plans and I feel bad that I didn't stay for the entire set. I still love jarrod's music.

Halcyon - Delphic

Delphic is one of the electronic/indie bands from Manchester, UK that I love immensely in 2010. It started last year with their song "counterpoint" then "doubt" now this! They are a great talent
I have been singing this song - repeatly! I can not get enough! :)


Delphic - Halcyon lyrics

You said enough, you said too much.
You focus solely on her touch, and halcyon.
In arguments set in stone
In promises of what was once, you come undone.

If you take this away, I fade to black and disappear.
If it's all a state of mind.

Give me something I can believe in
Aaaah,
What you say doesn't say that you mean it
Aaaah,
If I'm wrong well at least I know better
Aaaah,
Give me something I can believe in
Aah,
It's in your hands.

No war, no causes and effects
No looking back and then regret
of halcyon.

And I know I know I tried too much
All the time I waste yeah I'm losing touch,
All the timeeeeeeeee

If you take this away, I fade to black and disappear.
If it's all a state of mind.

Give me something I can believe in
Aaaah,
What you say doesn't say that you mean it
Aaaah,
If I'm wrong well at least I know better
Aaaah,
Give me something I can believe in
Aah,
It's in your hands.

Aaaaaaa
Aaaaaaa
Aaaaaaa
Aaaaaaa
Aaaaaaa
Aaaaaaa
Aaaaaaa
Aaaaaaa

Give me something I can believe in
Aaaah,
What you say doesn't say that you mean it
Aaaah,
If I'm wrong yeah at least I know better
Aaaah,
Give me something I can believe in
Aah,
It's in your hands.

Reflections of '00- '09

While I have seen many a blog post about the top songs of the decade and year. That sort of thing doesn't interest me - too controversial! Yeah, go ahead and call me boring but I think the music industry fell apart brutally during this last decade. Srsly. We went from buying CDs at Tower Records to Downloading Torrents for free online. ( I know you have! Don't lie to me kid! Atleast one time) Now Tower Records has shut its doors and Target or Itunes may get some of that cash.
I remember spending my last dollars on CDs, trading them in and figuring out how I would eat later. Music first, other needs aside. I do support my friends when they have an album in the stores, I will most definitely buy a copy. But that is besides the point. Maybe technology and the way the music industry handled it wasn't the best progressive thing to have happen but it did. And frankly I will say it wasn't a major music decade for me. Sure there were some diamonds in the rough, but stand out tracks from artists that were consistent throughout the years? I am drawing a blank. It might be from all this cold/fever medicine but I doubt it. Granted the first couple years of 2000 had some great tracks from Rawkus Records that carried from the 90s on the hip hop tip but after that hip hop went downhill and was pretty much buried for a long minute. Still now things are too few and in between. I was ashamed at one point to even admit I was a hip hop fan. Hopefully it will resurrect.
After I said peace to hip hop I got involved more heavily with the Dance/club House scene. Which at that time was mostly underground true house music lovers. It was fun while it lasted.
We are in a society were everything is just disposable from our one use packaging to our music. "Omg the hot track of the summer is - BOOTYBANG & there's a dance on youtube!" Then that song is garbage and you're a loser to STILL listen to that song after it's been out TOO long. WTF is that shit?! Oh yeah, pop music. I kid! I kid! ;) I do enjoy some pop music from past decades to this day but for some reason I doubt most of what was played this last 10 will be recognized in 20 years or later on down the line. Maybe I am getting old and am out of touch with what's really good. I am just disappointed at how many people think that Beyounce is one of the greatest singers of all time. She has talent but slap yourself and do some research.
Through social networking I have had a chance to get to know a vast amount of people I would not have known otherwise in the music and technology fields. I am happy to have befriended such cool people some of whom have become good friends.
My main reason for starting my whole podcast was to play music that I enjoyed listening to and other people might too. Not to play the most underground, unknown, obsure artist out there. Just play good music! Without any influence of anyone! If it is not something I don't wanna hear over and over again, it is not going on. I am still learning how to do all of this stuff it may seem like I know what I am doing by now but no. There is always room for advancement. So I would like to thank you the listeners for supporting my show whether it be from subscribing, streaming, replying to a tweet -- It is all appreciated and I am grateful! I do this for you and I hope you have a Happy New Year's! And here is to wishing for a fantastic decade of quality tunes! *kisses*
