Haim--Hallelujah

I wonder if the title means "Hallelujah, they're barefoot!" The pop group Haim perform a very nice song of theirs called Hallelujah. And all three women in the trio are barefoot throughout the video. Hallelujah, indeed.

Safe and Sound

Taylor's Swift's Safe and Sound has been a favorite song of mine for a while, now.

I've long been a fan of The Hunger Games film series--the soundtrack of which this song is from--and Taylor Swift does a great job with singing this folk/country tune.

Of course, the fact that Taylor Swift goes barefoot throughout the video for the song has nothing to do with anything.

Oh, no, her bare feet have nothing to do with ANYTHING at all. Hmm-hmmm. Uh, yeah, right....

Here's hoping you're safe and sound during all the craziness that's been going on lately. Stay safe.

A Disney Melody

I've posted a video from Honoka and Azita once before, where they did a rendition of the Hawaii Five-O theme. And now they're back, and still barefoot, as they perform a melody of Disney songs.

One of the posters below the video has helpfully posted the names of all the songs in case you have trouble recognizing anything.

Sweet Child O Mine in the country

The bluegrass version of Sweet Child O Mine, by Guns 'n' Roses. And it's good. No, really. When I first saw this listing on youtube, I was skeptical. But the band is called Thunder and Rain, and they're excellent. And the lead singer, she can really sing! This is a very nice cover of one of my favorite songs.

Losing My Religion

One of my favorite groups was REM (before they quit making new music) and one of my all-time favorite songs of theirs was 'Losing My Religion'. This video, which originally aired on Dutch TV, goes into detail about the making of this song.

And I've noticed here that the older Michael Stipe gets, the more he looks like a monk.

My new (old) favorite song

These guys have done a heavy metal version of Toto;'s Africa, and it is glorious. The video is also very funny. The female backup singer is very cute, too. I always liked the Toto version of this, but this my new favorite version of this song.

The Hot Violinist

The Hot Violinist (that's what she calls herself) performing a piece of music from The Last of the Mohicans with her sister in their living room. A dog named Suki shows up and doesn't look too impressed. But I liked it.
