New post theme: SONG OF NOW!

Okay, I was flicking through my mp3 player's vast music directory the other day and I found myself rediscovering songs that made me fall in love with a group, OR, songs that are possibly the only ones by that band that I know/like. You know what I mean, that one song you hear on a TV episode in the background or something, that really stops you short and leads you fast over to various websites to find out who sang it, where it's from etc. Possibly no one else has ever heard of them - you find yourself going on about some amazing track that everyone else missed.

Well, being a fan of shows that do about 20 different 'great' songs per episode, I have many, many to choose from. So here we go, a new theme for my blog to divulge some of those amazing tracks that at one time or other were my 'song of now'.

Providing two tracks per post, the first I shall start with is truly amazing and actually led me to become a huuuge fan of the band and their entire back catalogue! Played on an episode of Roswell, Season One (I believe the episode's called 'The White Room')...now boys, don't let that put you off ;o)...the band is Remy Zero (SERIOUSLY check them out if you haven't as yet) and the song's called 'Yellow Light', from the album Villa Elaine. A bone chillingly glorious guitar track with soaring lead vocals.

The band's second album, The Golden Hum:


Second track is in a slightly different vein, by Australian counry-pop artist Kasey Chambers. The song is 'Nullarbor Song' which, again, featured on Roswell. People might knock that show but it had one hell of a soundtrack! From the album Barricades and Brickwalls.
