Sweetheart 2014

As I prepare for my annual sojourn to Southeast Asia I depart with a wonderful compilation entitled Sweetheart 2014.

The album consists of handpicked love songs covered by the likes of Beck, Jim James, Fiona Apple, Phosphorescent, Ben Harper, The Head and the Heart, Valerie June, Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings and a daring choice by Vampire Weekend.

The band chose “Time to Say Goodbye (Con te partirò)” made famous by the great Italian opera tenor Andrea Bocelli.

We’ll hear each version here.

Happy

We end 2013 on a happy note.

A little different for this site but the song by Pharrell Williams is irresistible.

“Happy” first appeared in the film Despicable Me 2.

Pharrell, who was featured in one of the songs of the year with Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky”, now gives us the very first 24 hour video.

Happy New Year.

“Happy”
