Christmas Song of the Week: 29 Nov - 5 Dec 12 Days of Christmas

I discovered the 12 Days of Christmas sung by acapella group Straight No Chaser a few weeks back and was amazed. The group, formed in 1996, disbanded 2 years later but reunited a decade later because of the viral status this song obtained while posted on YouTube.

Song of the Week: 29 Nov - 5 Dec Rains in Asia

This week's winner is one of my all time faves and has been for a couple of years now. I discovered the song Rains in Asia on Pandora one day at work and I haven't been able to get enough of it since. It's sung by Jump, Little Children, a not to well known indie group from South Carolina. They never mad an official music video so this is the best I could find. Enjoy!

Songs of the Week: 22 - 28 Nov. 2010 Sweet Serendipity and Stuck Like Glue

This week has two winners.



The first winner is Sweet Serendipity by Lee DeWyze. I immediately started drumming on the steering wheel when Sweet Serendipity came on the radio on my way to work the other day. This year's American Idol winner released this song on his album Live It Up shortly after his prime time victory. The song reached number 38 on the US Adult Pop charts.


On my way another song caught my ear and wouldn't let go. That song is Stuck Like Glue  by country duo Sugarland which is featured on their new album The Incredible Machine. I'm not a big country fan but Stuck Like Glue has enough country to make it country but enough influences from other genres to make it unique and amazing in my opinion. It reached #2 on the Billboard Hot Country and #17 on the Hot 100.
