Music | Weekly Hitlist
After spending some time at the NAMM show this week I have been encourage the music does have a chance. Music has taken a beating throughout it’s history as money enters the equation and music is forced to redefine itself. So this week I thought I would point out some musical genus. Here are three songs the exude pure creativity. They are a clash of insane creativeness and raw talent. Not to over sell them. They may not be some of the best songs ever, but they are pure. Complete with videos this week.
Ben Folds | brick. Ben Folds has so much talent and creativity, it just isn’t fair. I wish he could email me some of what he’s got.

Postal Service | such great heights. Have you ever listened to the lyrics…rich.

Radiohead | videotape. Raw and heavy, really good poetry.

There are more than we could ever count…but I’m pretty sure Umbrella or anything by Fergie is not on the list.
Great songs and videos. Have you heard the acoustic version of “Such Great Heights” by Iron & Wine? It’s pretty amazing!
