Performance of the Day: Lee Dewyze: Dear Isabelle

Despite my opinion of him when he was on the show, I love Lee Dewyze.  This is my favorite song of his.

Music Video of the Day: Coldplay, Paradise

Quite honestly, I have no idea if Jason's still alive.  Hopefully, for everyone's sake, he is.

Anyway, I thought this video was certainly interesting, I mean who doesn't enjoy watching an elephant try to live the life of a human?  And I give mad props to that elephant for riding the unicycle, something I've always wanted to do, although not necessarily as an elephant.

Not my favorite song, but it's up there as far as videos are concerned.

Performance of the Day: Queen, Bohemian Rhapsody

I can't believe it took me this long to post this song.  You can say what you want about Freddie Mercury, but Queen is one of the greatest bands of all time, and the man can flat out sing.  Also, this is one of the best songs ever written.  Do you realize how many people are there?  They certainly put on a good show.

Music Video of the Day: Don Omar, Danza Kuduro

I've definitely heard this before, although I don't know where.  Jason didn't post a music video yesterday, and I passed out without a thought of posting one so my apologies for not getting one up.  To make up for it, I'm posting this.  Brilliant video, brilliant song.

I have no idea what any of it means, but if it doesn't get you up and dancing then you have no pulse.

Performance of the Day: Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds, Say Goodbye

This may be my favorite Dave and Tim song, its quiet but that accentuates the beauty in the lyrics.  It's a song about two good friends who are attracted to each other enough to make an attempt to push their relationship to the next level despite the fact they know it won't last.  Hence, "Tomorrow we'll go back to being friends."  I'm pretty sure everyone has experienced that, and some of the greatest relationships and experiences can form between two people who were extremely close prior to physical attraction.  Throw in the fact that Tim Reynolds is fantastic, and you've got a really powerful song.

Some of the lines I love:

"When we make our passion pictures,

you and me twist up secret creatures."

"We kiss and sweat,

we'll turn this better thing to the best."

"Just a rogue kiss, tangled tongues and lips."

"Tonight lets do this thing,

all we are is wasting hours

until the sun comes up and it's all ours."

Performance of the Day: Nat King Cole, Nature Boy

Here's a little switch from what tends to be an award dominated by pop/rock artists.  I love this song and the message it sends, and you really can never go wrong with a little jazz.

"The greatest thing that you'll ever learn

is just to love, and be loved in return."

Music Video of the Day: Tyga - Rack City

Never have I ever liked a song this much while simultaneously admitting that it is a horrible song. Lyrically, one of the best Young Money songs out there - so you know it can't be good. The beat/melody is so simply - another Young Money trait. But I can't stop listening to Rack City. You could say I have Rack City Fever.

The question I have for you, Bullet fans, is this: who is on the beat? Mugga? Mustard? Muhhhhh?
