Friday Song Of The Day - I’m Yours
It’s been a while (last year) since I’ve posted a Friday Song of the Day. This song seems to get stuck in my head; which isn’t entirely bad. It’s got a nice island feel and it’s just down-right perky. I like it, so here ...

Friday Song Of The Day - Till You’re Gone
I chose today’s song not so much based on the actual music, but more on the music video. I’m a pianist and so is the leader of this band, Gabe Dixon, so that sort of resonated with me. But the really cool thing about the video is that the...
