Sunday Morning with Kenny Eng

Since Chad Cavanaugh mentioned this song by Kenny Eng, I've had a hankering to post it. You see, I didn't know the song until Chad, and I had to immediately go check it out. It was there I discovered Chad was right, it is fantastic.



Like Chad, Kenny is an independent musician making his way in San Diego, California. He plays plenty of gigs in the area, and makes his presence known online on all the social networks. He was also recently nominated in the category of Best Acoustic Artist in the San Diego Music Awards. Here is another song, Life By The Drop. It was originally performed by Stevie Ray Vaughn.

Saturday Morning with Angels

I have to admit that I have been a fan of Robbie Williams, with all the odd twists and turns his life has taken. from his early time with the British boyband Take That to his solo career, and now that it is coming full circle, with his work once again with Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, Jason Orange and Mark Owen, the men from Take That. But as we venture into Halloween weekend, and toy with all the ghosts, goblins and demons associated with the holiday, I thought it would be a great start to the day to hit up one of Robbie most successful solo releases, the song Angels. I know I love the song, from the Life Thru A Lens album. While it racked up impressive sales throughout Europe, selling Double Platinum in the UK alone, it never really caught on the the US. I can't figure out why. It was covered by Jessica Simpson, both overwrought and forgettable, and by American Idol runner-up David Archuleta, which was rather nice. But here, I return to the source, and my favorite version of the song. Here is Robbie singing Angels.



This does remind me I have to do a post on Robbie's solo stuff sometime soon. And think that there are several singer/songwriters I follow that could do a killer version of this song.
