While listening to Pandora right now, I heard a song by Great Lake Swimmers come on. It was the perfect song for a fall evening.

Taking Timeout Through Music

It’s back to work! Take a timeout and listen to these two version of the song Parachute. Which do you like better?

Original artist, Cheryl Tweedy! She super sexy but the question is… does her voice give the song justice? I heart this video.

Post Script: Can I be Cheryl? She is seriously gorgeous and is an awesome dancer. sigh.

This is Ingrid Michaelson covering Parachute. Pure bliss, but definitely misses the sexy Cheryl Tweedy element!

Taking “Timeout” Through Music with Mumford & Sons

“Since they formed in December 2007, the members of Mumford & Sons have shared a common purpose: to make music that matters, without taking themselves too seriously. Four young men from West London in their early twenties, they have fire in their bellies, romance in their hearts, and rapture in their masterful, melancholy voices. They are staunch friends -- Marcus Mumford, Country Winston, Ben Lovett, and Ted Dwane -- who bring their music to us with the passion and pride of an old-fashioned, much-cherished, family business. They create a gutsy, old-time sound that marries the magic of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young with the might of Kings Of Leon, and their incredible energy draws us in quickly to their circle of songs, to the warmth of their stories, and to their magical community of misty-eyed men.”

Taking Timeout Through Music with The Everybodyfields

“Like a good cry-and like the best country music-Jill Andrews and Sam Quinn’s songs are all shuddering sighs, aching confessions and upturned hearts spilling out over layers of pedal steel, fiddle and acoustic guitar, delivered by two of the most disparately beautiful voices to ever meld.” —Paste Magazine

Taking Timeout through music with Tristan Prettyman

Tristan Prettyman is my girl.

I have spent countless hours studying, cleaning my room, burning scented oils, etc..etc… to her music. Her CD is the one I choose to pop in when I know the ride is going to be long. Its got that windows down, sunglasses on, sing your face off kind of feel.

I love this clip- especially her intro speech. I found it funny:

Happy listening
