I’ve posted this before, but it is a favorite of mine…

Tracy Chapman – Change – Download the MP3 and enjoy.

Can you believe Sanjaya is still on American Idol?  I know that there are these cult clubs on myspace that are trying to keep Sanjaya on the show and even possibly have him win, but come on people, you are killing me! Blake should win this time and Lakisha and Melinda Dolittle should get singing contracts as well. I just think Blake is the coolest and his hair and beatboxing remind me of Steve.

Now this morning on the radio they were talking about how Sony/BMG is worried that Sanjaya might win American Idol and so they are already writing songs for him to sing. It seems to me that they would just say, “Hey, here’s your million no go away.” Because really, a million dollars to this show is like 1 dollar to most of us that are watching the show.

And one more thing, Simon Cowell said he will quit the show if Sanjaya wins. That would be interesting because that would kill the show.  Who do you think should win?

I love good music. I especially enjoy a band that is gifted musically. Yes, there are those artists that are manufactured, beats that are conjured up and mass produced that I like, but that is like fast food and this, this album from Jars of Clay is like a steak from Ruth Chris Steakhouse.

I love Jars of Clay. I especially loved their debut album that crossed over into the mainstream with their song “Flood”. Now, this new album has the knee slapping song “Carry Me” which is great, it rocks, but if you take a moment to listen to “Work” you will see that Jars of Clay have not only crossed over into the mainstream, they are on par or better than bands like Death Cab, Dishwalla, Goo Goo Dolls – even Coldplay.

If you don’t purchase any other albums this year, purchase this one. Now. And if you already new about this gem then shame on you for not telling me about it.
