Top 5 w/ Eleanora
Eleanora has been serenading Detroit for the past few years. After breaking roughly a 12-month long hiatus they are back in action and have a new LP, “Some Happy Accidents”, due for release this Saturday at One-Eyed Betty’s. Here is a bit of a sampling:
Now swoon to Eleanora’s Top 5:
Well this is really fucking hard considering how subjective music is and all. And the mood I’m in an hour from now will make me want to listen to something else.. But hey ok for right now..
Nina Simone-I Got Life
If only people could be so humble and amazing this song really does it for me.
Rufus Wainright-Hallelujah
It’s just a fucking masterpiece played with the utmost passion and sweat and hopefully a little blood.
Vic Chesnutt-Everything I Say
That’s part fugazi part silver mount zion and part amazing Vic was one of my personal favorite song writers (scottie) And a fucking beast at dynamics.
Kaki King-Pull Me Out Alive
What’s not to love about this girl she plays everything brilliantly she’s the new prince to me. Check out playing with pink noise when you get a chance.
The Stooges-Dirt
Ooh, I been dirt
And I don’t care
Ooh, I been dirt
And I don’t care
Cause I’m burning inside
I’m just a yearning inside
And I’m the fire o’ life
Ooh, I’ve been hurt
And I don’t care
Ooh, I’ve been hurt
And I don’t care
Cause I’m burning inside
I’m just a dreaming this life
And do you feel it?
Said do you feel it when you touch me?
Said do you feel it when you touch me?
There’s a fire
Well, it’s a fire
It was just a burning
Yeah, alright
Ooh!
Burning inside
Burning
Just a dreaming
Just a dreaming
It was just a dreaming
It was just a dreaming
Play it for me, babe, with love!
I think we need to cover this.
Thanks to Eleanora.
