Julia Stone - It's All Okay

"It's All Okay"

The story is different now, the records are playing in the living room

And you might say you're wounded, and I might say I'm hurt

But we knew the difference then between the fire and the earth

And we may say we're broken, we may say we're weak,

But we knew before we started, oh the secrets we would keep

And it's all okay, cause love will find a way to be what love is

And it's all okay, cause love will find a way to be what love is

I'll move to the country, and live inside the deepest, darkest wood

And I'll write you a letter and tell you all the things I should say to your face

And I won't send it to you, I'll send it to your mother's place

And she won't give it to you, that's how brave I'll grow here in my cave

And it's all okay, cause love will find a way to be what love is

And it's all okay, cause love will find a way to be what love is

And you'll move to the city, marry a pretty girl

And she will make you smile all the while you'll be looking for what you left behind

And she will bring you children and oh how you will love them with that heart of yours

I won't visit you, I'll know by then the kinder thing to do

Oh it's all okay, cause love will find a way to be what love is

And it's all okay, cause love will find a way to be what love is

And it's all okay, cause love will find a way to be what love is

And it's all okay, cause love will find a way to be what love is

The story is different now, the records are playing in the living room

Next Best Thing: Maverick Sabre

I was sitting in TGI Fridays, enjoying my Osso Bucco with a crowd chattering and waiters passing back and forth. On TV was muted sports channel and in the background played a song that I can identify each and every one of it, Warwick Avenue of Duffy etc.

Suddenly there is one song that I couldn't recalled hearing. His vocal and style of singing is not in my database. What I did was, just like everytime I heard a great engaging sound is took out my Tablet and excute Shazam. Beneath all the noise and bustle, it detected Maverick Sabre 'I Need' and I was like..."Okeeey...this is new!"

You see wherever I am, I always alert about music. Through conversation with my friend, my mind was lingering what was on the speaker.

Review coming soon...

Young the Giant - Cough Syrup

Wild Orchid - Love Will Wait 

This is an old song that I've been searching in YouTube for long. It's 1996 kinda old. Yes, I listened to them back then of their eponymous album. One of the singer Stacy Ferguson is what currently known as Fergie. She has a powerful vocal back then, not forgetting beautiful, she lost it all to meth. 

The Weepies - Be My Honeypie

Morgan Page ft Tegan and Sara - Body Work

Album Review: Other Lives - Tamer Animals (2011)

I am one of thousands of Other Lives band since my fave hit 'Black Table', I own their 2009 eponymous album. This new release (not really new actually, released in UK August 2011) sounded almost too commercial it closely resembles The Black Keys. Music styles sorta Arcade Fire-ish. 

Seriously if it wasn't for strum of various acoustic strings, I can actually bought it that they are indeed the latter. Most likely because vocally Jesse Tabish (of Other Lives) and Dan Auerbach (of The Black Keys) are almost indistinguishable except Auerbach has a hint of falsetto in his. Now if you put Chris Cornell (of Audioslaves) into this picture, it'll all sound confusing.

But this album is flooded with excellent composition nonetheless. My favorite is 'Dust Bowl III' and 'For 12', I need to frequent this album to get a hang of it.

THE TRACKLIST:

• Dark Horse
• As I Lay My Head Down
• For 12
• Tamer Animals
• Dust Bowl III
• Weather
• Old Statues
• Woodwind
• Desert
• Landforms
• Heading East
