I'm afraid Elvis fever still hasn't left me after my Graceland/Memphis trip last month. In the shower the other night I just ripped into Elvis' version of "Make the World Go Away," one of the finest vocal performances he ever did. Listen and see if [...]
This is a great song by Rob Thomas, formerly of Matchbox 20. It was recorded for a Disney film, and it's very catchy and pleasant. I was humming this all day on Saturday. Nice song! Monday the 8th - DUBBING THE GOV! - I got [...]
