Viva la Vida!!!

I love this song. It’s as simple as that. When I’m feeling down, flat, miserable or just out of sorts, I can’t think of a better song to raise my spirits. I found this video while poking around on youtube this morning, as you do, and it’s a lovely change to the official Viva la Vida video clip. Set to a series of five paintings by the artist Thomas Cole, it is entitled ‘The Course of Empire’. Coldplay’s lyrics combined with these stirring images make for a reel kick start to the day. Take a look!

Kent - A quiet heart

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: , , , — ArtistConnected @ 1:52 am

No not the charming English countryside but the Swedish Pop-Rock group. Kent are relatively unknown outside Scandinavia where they have enjoyed huge success and popularity, but with only one album in English they have found it difficult to corner the British and US markets. Shame really because they are genuinely very good.

This song Quiet Heart is one of my favourites from the album Hagnesta Hill. If you’re a fan of groups like Keane and Coldplay you’re bound to like Kent.
