We All Go

So I sadly haven't had much time to find new music in the last few days so this could be an interesting post. But here we are, with a remix of a Calvin Harris song, a delicious melody mixed with some not-too-over-the-top dubstep-iness. The angelic vocals over top mixed with the lulls and the piano backing makes this song pretty damn awesome in my opinion.

And in complete opposite, the beautiful voiced (and looking) French-Canadian Coeur De Pirate. She covers a The Weeknd song which is good to start with so this combonation was a good thing from the very start.

So enjoy these two songs on a lazy Saturday afternoon. Have a good one, I'm out!

Shoes and Cars

So as we wade into the week it becomes pretty damn clear that...it's not gunna be any different. So to spice things up a bit, I decided to throw in a fantastic song from last year. Well, awesome remix of an already good song. It's only downfall, is that I can't understand the song cause it's in French... Yes, Canadian I might be, but French-Canadian I am not. Still, I heard once that the melody is the "sex" of the song, while the lyrics are it's personality, so I guess it all works out!

Coeur De Pirate is, like I alluded to, a French-Canadian indie-pop singer. Impressive at her stardom as she's still the young age of 21 and getting international acclaim. She sings nearly exclusively in French, with like one song in English or something like that. But her voice is the kind that sends shivers up and down my spine, and I can't understand her! She's pretty big here, but Quebec isn't the biggest market, but she has won the French equivalent of a Grammy, and that's where her largest fan base is. Just so you know, her voice does not match up with how she looks for me, but that's pretty stereotypical of me, so sorry for that.

Anyways, this song makes me so happy, it's something you can put on and just listen to, without thought of the past, or future. Just vibe. It's nice, Le Matos and Andy Carmichael do a very nice job of turning this already great song into something memorable that, while, that's lasted as memorable for the last year. For me anyways. Of course, this is entirely a personal opinion, and I hope you guys like the song. Oh and if you're interested in what the lyrics actually mean, take a gander at the translation.

I hope you enjoyed the song, it's musical attraction is too strong for me to resist, hopefully you feel the same. Have a good day, or two. See you then, I'm out!
