CHRISTIAN RONIG – MORNING IN MINOR

Wake now, my little darling
Don’t miss out morning’s minor key
This melody was written long ago
For you to listen to From some soul’s weep
This melody was written long ago For you to listen to
From some soul’s weep

Open your window to the yard
Throw me a glance as sweet as wine
Then let me fade, my little darling
Like the drapes and coverlets
Inside your room
Then let me fade, my little darling
Like the drapes and coverlets
Inside your room.

Calexico – Under The Wheels

Walking around with your head bent down
Complacent in a sedated state
I wanted to hear what you had to say
But there was too much talking over each other

Find me some peace, a mindful heart
A break in the tide when the fighting starts
Power’s down and the town goes dark
When words fail we scatter

Under the wheels
Of the war machine
Always someone else’s scheme
Show me a sign
When the world falls apart
From the core to the seams
The threads that we seek

All the way in and totally gone
The panic button is dead to me now
Changing your shape in your overcoat
But somehow you manage to stay afloat

Defy the system
And avoiding the eyes that stay well hid
Surrendered the words while the lovers leap
Out of the fray and into the infinite

Deep
In the war regime
Always someone else’s scheme
Show me a sign
When the world falls apart
Coming together from all of the corners tonight
From the core to the seams
From the threads that we seek
The threads that we seek

Find me some peace, a mindful heart
A break in the tide when the fighting starts
Power’s down and the town goes dark
When words fail we scatter

Under the wheels
Of the war machine
Always someone else’s scheme
Show me a sign
When the world falls apart
Coming together from all of the corners tonight
From the core to the seams
From the threads that we keep

Alice Merton – No Roots

“I’ve got no roots, but my home was never on the ground.“

One whole sentence seems to sum up the life of the English/Canadian singer and songwriter Alice Merton.

Four countries and eleven moves later her single “No Roots” has reached top positions on iTunes, Spotify, Shazam and Hype Machine. In Germany, the song has already reached gold status and was #2 in the official single charts.

Raised in Canada, finishing high school in Germany, then moving on to England with her family, Alice has gotten quite used to packing and unpacking boxes.

That lifestyle has allowed her the freedom to travel in support of her music and it’s paying off.

The video alone has OVER 20 MILLION views and she’s just been signed by vaunted indie label Mom + Pop.

Vance Joy – We’re Going Home

 

We’re going home
If we make it or we don’t, we won’t be alone
When I see your light shine, I know I’m home
If you’re waiting all your life, you won’t ever go
When I see your light shine, I know I’m home
When I see your light shine, I know I’m home
When I see your light shine
