Marc Anthony's I need to know
I've always liked this song. Recently in watching a Dance Wars episode one of the teams did a rendition of this (that I actually liked). It reminded me of the original so I thought I would post and share it. Thankfully kind folks uploaded it to Youtube

Christina Aguilera's Back in the Day lyrics
Lately I've been really enjoying this song. Maybe it is because I too appreciate so many of the artists that she mention. It is actually nice seeing someone from her generation knowing who they are and respecting what they brought to the musical world. Hopefully if you never heard of these artists or never heard of their work you would also look them up.
Anyway found this neat lyric thing/widget via Metrolyrics so I thought I would share

JoJo - Too Litte Too Late
I admit she is one of the younger set that I hope keeps it clean and makes it.
-AnOldieButAGoodie
I FOUND IT!
A while ago I mentioned that a song was stuck in my head that I know I heard before but couldn't remember who sung it or what it was saying. It made it difficult because it was a Japanese artist and my Japanese Language knowledge is less than a little. Anyway, I figured it was either Hitomi or Koda Kumi and I'm glad to say I found it. The song is Cherry Girl by Koda Kumi.
Here it is:

Hope you enjoy it! Nevertheless, I do. I think I'm getting this album. -AnOldieButAGoodie
Music in the News: Saving The Carpenters Home
via Iwon DOWNEY, Calif. (AP) - Owners of The Carpenters' former home aren't feeling on top of the world about the legions of fans who keep stopping by to pay tribute. The five-bedroom tract house, where siblings Karen and Richard Carpenter lived and penned some of their greatest hits, was featured on the cover of their 1973 hit album "Now & Then." It was also where an anorexic Karen Carpenter collapsed in 1983 before dying. Owners Manuel and Blanca Melendez Parra have apparently grown weary of the parade of fans paying homage. The couple have submitted plans to officials in Downey, a city about 15 miles south of downtown Los Angeles, to raze the 39-year-old main house, the Los Angeles Times reported Saturday. The Parras have already torn down an adjoining house and have begun construction on a larger home
The proposal to level the rest of the residence has angered fans.
"This house is our version of Graceland," said Carpenters aficionado Jon Konjoyan. "When they photographed the 'Now & Then' cover here in 1973, the house was instantly immortalized."
The 57-year-old musician and promoter is heading a campaign to save the original home from the wrecker's ball. Some fans have proposed that Downey officials declare the house a historic landmark.
I look forward to seeing how this all turns out - AnOldieButAGoodie

I'm believing it is either Koda Kumi, Hitomi and only possibly Ayumi. So I'll be listening to a lot of our CDs and online videos until I find it. Don't you hate that?

Another of my favorites - Jim Croce
This brings back such memories of growing up. I've always liked his song even at a young age. Loved the words, the melody, the voice.

Too many Subscriptions - Magazine Covers
You know I realize that we have too many magazines coming to the house. Most of them gifts. I'm still trying to catch up on them. I did find this to be a nice cover of Alicia Keys. I think she is pretty, talented and keeps it positive. It is a pretty old cover - November 2007 Ebony Magazine.
On a side note - have you discovered the amount of junk mail you get once you start getting magazines via mail?

Have you heard of Trot music?
I've recently become familiar with it. Here's a definition via Wikipedia: Trot, pronounced as "teuroteu" in Korean (sometimes derisively called ppongjjak), is the oldest form of Korean pop music. It developed in the years before and during the Japanese occupation. Trot music has received criticism from nationalists, who allege that it derives from the Japanese music genre of enka, especially its scale. Defenders of trot, however, claim that it had begun to develop prior to the Japanese invasion, and simply developed in parallel with the Japanese style. The name itself derives from a shortening of "foxtrot", a ballroom dance which influenced the characteristic simple beat of the genre. This style of music has recently increased in popularity due to the emergence of "semi-trot" singers such as Jang Yoon Jeong (장윤정), who had great crossover success with her first single "어머나!" ("Eomeona!" - an exclamation similar to "Oh my goodness!"). This has led to both an increased awareness of older trot musicians and the debut of other singers and groups wanting to capitalize on the genre's comeback (including LPG and Super Junior-T).
I am believer in broadening your horizons. Every form of music may not be for you but that does not make it bad and it is nice to know about things outside of what you are use to.

From Jeopardy to Billie Holiday
One of the answers to Jeopardy last night was Billie Holiday and she's been on my mind ever since. Here is a clip that MonsieurBaudelaire was kind enough to upload to Youtube. It is Billie Holiday singing Strange Fruits live. Listen to the lyrics. They have meaning. Thoughts?
Just watching it and listening to often make my eyes water.

Flashback!: Slave "Just a Touch of Love"
You don't know how sad I was when my Slave CD was damaged. I'm definitely getting another one. This song has been an almost life-long favorite. So glad to find it online. So glad that SLOBBKO uploaded it

First Song of the Day: Ai Otsuka's Sakuranbo
We watched our "Tokyo Friends" DVD last night/early this morning and one of the stars was Ai Otsuka. I've always liked her song Planetarium but we don't have it so I went online in search of it. I did find a lot of Youtube clips of other people singing it but couldn't find one of her singing it. Fortunately, I came across this clip where she sings two of her songs - Planetarium being one of them. Since it shows her singing Sakuranbo first that became my First Song of the Day. Makes sense?
