Last night’s rock show, featured the purist singing I have ever heard in this genre. So strange. Just when I was looking for some grit and growl, these singers took a pure, almost studied approach to this genre.

This video, featured below, made me laugh and get misty-eyed at the same time. Can the end of the Jay Leno era be this near? No matter the answer, at least his successor, Jimmy Fallon, is playing nice, allowing Jay to leave with the dignity he so deserves. The idea behind this video originated with […]

By: Rosanne Simunovic This week, the Top 8 singers celebrated the Music Of Motown. And, as expected, this theme proved to be trickier for some than others. It is safe to say that Motown is not only a specific genre or theme, but also a way of life- an innate ability to soulfully express your […]
