Because I can’t feature Jason Mraz enough on this blog – here’s a song from Vimeo called Happy Holidayz.
Just in time for Christmas too.

If you remember the Music Monday post from three weeks ago with Stuck On You by Jason Mraz, you might have noticed a little widget that enables you to listen to the song via an online platform called Grooveshark.
For me, Grooveshark is the ultimate in access to music over the internet. You can get exactly [...]

I missed our 7th month anniversary together because I was in Hong Kong, so here’s a song for the girlfriend. Originally done by Lionel Ritchie (I think), but I’ve opted to go with a more modern rendition by Jason Mraz (actually, more acurately it’s by Toca, but Jason’s in it as well):

I’m stuck on [...]

I first heard (and saw) The Script during last year’s MTV Asia Awards with the song “The Man Who Can’t Be Moved“. Since then, their tracks “If You See Kay” and “Breakeven” have hit the airwaves, and this Irish band has definitely gained traction in the last eight months.
What I like about The Script is [...]

The second of two recommendations from Sheryl, Kina Grannis on YouTube.

I really like her own “music video” at the end of it! Very nice feel to the whole “artist” vibe.

And finally, her duet with David Choi, who you might remember from Music Mondays XV

Hope you enjoyed the music!

It’s been awhile since I’ve chosen to highlight a YouTube musician on Music Mondays, but awhile ago Sheryl recommended I check out two artists, one being David Choi, who considers himself to be more of a songwriter than an artist, but he can actually sing pretty well.
One thing I realised about David’s music, is that [...]

So what I want to tell you about on this week’s Music Mondays column, is obviously, Last.fm
That’s me on Last.fm. I’ve been a member since October 2006 and have listened to just over 10,000 songs. I’m pretty sure there’s more than that, but a lot of my music consumption is over the iPod, which doesn’t [...]

[edit: Videos of the full performance and all the songs are up here!]
I think I’ll be doing a proper review for Jon over on his blog, but I’ll tell you about my “adventures”.
So the concert was at Massey Hall in Toronto (which took me 2 and a half hours to get there by train) and [...]

I know, you’re all going “Who?”. Here’s the back story: Last night I was doing some research for this week’s Music Monday, (hint: it involved searching for Katy Perry on YouTube), what surfaced instead was this:

I know everyone’s trying to be the next Marie Digby, but over 1.3million views and 12 thousand ratings with an [...]

I’m posting this a day late because I did all this on paper but forgot to blog about it! Terrible me!
Reviewing last week’s goals:

I did find an omlette recipe that worked well on Sunday, so I fulfilled cooking

Earl Grey cookies were swapped for cranberry orange cookies which turned out fantastically. I really outdid myself [...]
