It's been a while

Well it has. Although I have been dropping a few articles that interest me I have not really had the time to write something from scratch.

So to ease in the writing as we rapidly approach the holiday seasons I thought I would drop in a few links of some music that I have quite taken to.

These are not some obscure indie bands, nor are they major artists, although judging by the views on Youtube I think they will do alright.

First up

Olly Murs - Having heard Olly on radio being interviewed he comes across as an amiable cheeky chappy. Music is polished and produced. But it was only when I heard he do a cover of David Guetta's "Without You" in Radio 1's Live Lounge did I appreciate his talent and ability to create great music. Naturally he is helped out by some talented session artists, but even so.

Hit the link to take you to Radio 1. Look for the "Without You" video.

The other one is Ed Sheeran, who I have listened to on the radio but never really taken any notice. Then after the charity gig for "Children In Need" aired I heard presenters on Radio 1 going nuts about Ed's performance and I had to take a closer look. Watch out for the smoldering hot violinist.

Hoped on to YouTube and what do you know, this guy has several records ;-) and videos. 

Notably are the tracks "The A Team" - A Song my wife tells me is about cocaine.

And the other is "Lego House" which stars Rupert Grint who brilliantly plays a stalker of Ed.

Now I am not a lyrics guy, I am more attuned to melody. But Ed's songs provide a great combo of both and lyrics which I can hear and understand.
