Song Of The Day (26/2/2012): Johnny Cash And U2 - The Wanderer

Good Evening

Today Johnny Cash should have celebrated 80 years. Cash, one of the greatest country singers of the perior century died on 2003, the same year he lost his life long lover, June Carter. I supose that he had a lot of greater songs than this one, but The Wanderer always sounds to me like a song he sang for June. I first heard it when I bough U2's Zooropa (1993) and was surprised to hear that Baritone voice of Cash instead of Bono's. So happy birthday, Johnny, up there...

The first time I've listenned to Damien Jurado song Omaha, I was amazed by his soft voice and great lyrics. Nowdays, You can hear his new record called Maraqopa (2012). Jurado, an American Indie Rock singer/songwriter, Has released music madein his hometown Seatle since the mid 90's and had made a lot of changes in style during this period of time. From His latest release I've choosen one his more communcative songs called Museum Of Flight. I love the rythem of this track, what do you say about that?

Pick One: Damien Rice - One (U2 Cover)

Good Evening

It's Valentine's day eve and it's pretty cold outside. Before I'll go to sleep with my choosen one, there's a song that I would like to dedicate for that beauty which lights my life for twelve years nowdays. One, originally sung by U2 on their Classic album Achtung Baby (1991), has been covered by Irish singer, Damien Rice. His Version is something between Johnny Cash's version and Bono. It seems that he was broken hearted when he sang that one, maybe he thought about his beautiful Ex-girlfriend, Lisa Hannigan. You can hear it on Akh-toong Bay-Bi (2011), a project made for Q magazine for the 20th anniversary of the original....

So this is my Valentine's eve song, What do you say about this version?
