Current Listening

Hi!!

 

Recently I have been trying to listen to lots of different genres of music, in order to give myself an idea of the sort of pieces I would like to perform as part of my IB Music course to go on my CD.

 

I have tried to find all of these songs on YouTube, so hopefully (if it works) when you click on the name of the song you will be able to listen to it.

 

Please note that these videos aren't necessarily the originals, so you will see some random photos or the lyrics to the songs.

 

My Listening List:

 

Relapse - Collin McLoughlin

Progress - Collin McLoughlin

Keep On Sleeping - Collin McLoughlin

Can't Turn Around - Collin McLoughlin

Miley Cyrus, Jimmy Fallon and The Roots: "We Can't Stop" A capella cover

Okay, so Miley Cyrus doesn't have a very good image these days in the media, etc. but after listening to this a cappella cover of her song "We Can't Stop" my opinion has changed. Her voice is so naturally beautiful, and singing without any instruments or distracting dance moves makes it much nicer to listen to her voice.

I really like how voices are only used in the cover, and that we have people doing the low beats quietly so the voices aren't overpowered.

I'm not really sure on what else to write about this cover, but I really enjoyed it so hopefully you will too! If you click here it will take you to the video.

Enjoy!! :)
