Power to commercial jingles!

I am officially addicted to commercial jingles.

My latest favorite is "Power" by the Temptations.  I admit, however, that I had never heard of this funky song until I heard it as a jingle in advertising for Blackberry's Playbook.

I am in love with the vocal bass.  The beat is just rockin'.  The lyrics are fun.  The message is clear.

I am aware of the Temptations.  I have never fully been aware of their music.  I am wide awake now.  I plan for "Power" to be my third commercial jingle-inspired download on iTunes.

Play it commercial jingles!  Play it Temptations!

Let it out

Over the course of the past month, I have experienced a roller coaster of shattered and elated emotions directly resulting from stress I no longer can control or resolve.

"Shout" is the perfect musical therapy for such a mental state as mine.  Every once in awhile in life, a person just has to let it all out.  Scream, shout. . .get the steam out of one's head and mind.

So.  Enjoy the lyrics and sound of "Shout" by Tears for Fears.  Enjoy this song as therapy or enjoy this song for musical interest.

Always remember to play it when music is the only way.
