Music I Like

Ben Folds, where have you been all my life? It's always amazing when a lot of musicians, or seemingly incompatible musicians make something soul-searching. Check it out, there's even a French horn in there. Rock on!




And because I'm addicted to YouTube for the evening, here's another sample of two very different musicians making beautiful sounds together. Of course, this one has a more intimate sound The first time I heard it I was reminded of all the times I've every played an instrument or sang with others. I miss that. I guess music allows a transcendence I never get from writing, and it's a transcendence that's accessible to everyone, but I think that if you're a musician you're more apt to realize it. And yes, I may have played this video more than 5 times today, if you were wondering.

  1. I guess I've never thought of Glen and Marketa as very different before but you're right.
