acoustic sessions

I was just spending my time by surfing on the internet 

and Spotify was supporting me with the "Afternoon Acoustic" list.

Then I heard You and Me cover of Boyce Avenue.
I always think that originals are better 

as sometimes this idea becomes a failure but I still insist on.

"What day is it? And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

'Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do, nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why I can't keep my eyes off of you "

Clean Bandit is a British electronic group founded in Cambridge, England in 2009.
In January 2014, they scored their first UK Singles Chart-topping single with "Rather Be",
featuring elements of classical music along with a dance music beat.

Alexa Goddard (born 21 December 1988) is an English pop and R&B singer.
I think that her acoustic cover is the best version of this song. 

"If you gave me a chance I would take it
It's a shot in the dark but I'll make it
Know with all of your heart, you can't shame me
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be"

Maps is the name of the new Maroon 5 single

and Lacy Cavalier made a cover of this song.

I cannot mention that this one is the best version of the covers of this song

but for now we can say that this one is the most clicked one in Youtube.

"But I wonder where were you
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my back
So I wonder where were you"

Chandelier is the new song of Sia that we listened this weekend and 

I found Marie Martins's acoustic cover 

while I was searching for some other (easier) vocal sounds.

I think this is one of the best cover of this song.

"I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier"

Baby Blue is an English rapper and singer.

She is getting known by her new song Bump nowadays.

Hope Murphy, Britain's Got Talent 2012 singer, made a nice piano cover of this song.

"And I can never understand why you ask me
My heart is dying in your hands but my heart beats
It goes bump bump bump bump, bump bump bump
It goes bump bump bump bump, bump bump bump

And I can never understand why you told lies
I wanna move on but I can't for my heart cries
It goes bump bump bump bump, bump bump bump
It goes bump bump bump bump, bump bump bump"

So tell everyone that we're back on our broadcast. 

Youtube is finally available in Turkey (w/o VPN and Hotspotshield) and 

I'm continuing to share acoustic records that I like.

Deriving the name from the idea of “the music taking control”,

ortoPilot is the musical brain child of Manchester based, multi-instrumentalist Matt Hutchison. 

Taking much inspiration from his musical hero John Mayer, his spectacular musicianship 

takes the saturated singer/songwriter genre to a whole new level.

"Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast"

Above & Beyond is an English dance music group which was formed in 2000 

and consisting of members Jono Grant, Tony McGuinness and Paavo Siljamäk. 

"I'm sorry baby
You were the sun and moon to me
I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me"

Amy Jade Winehouse (14 September 1983 – 23 July 2011) was an English singer-songwriter
known for her deep contralto vocals.
After years of abusing drugs, then alcohol,
Winehouse died of alcohol poisoning on 23 July 2011.
Her album Back to Black posthumously became the UK's best-selling album
of the 21st century, at that point.

"We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black"

It is becoming hard to share an acoustic song for each day.

I started to feel myself good when I can share a song once a week actually.

Therefore I've changed my mind to "share whenever you can". :)

Alecia Beth Moore Hart (born September 8, 1979), better known by her stage name Pink (stylized as P!nk), is an American singer-songwriter and actress.

I admire her performance and voice.

"I'll keep you locked in my head
Until we meet again"

This should not be an excuse, but I realized  that I was overloaded nowadays.

Being an engineer, a housewife, a singer, a wife, a student, a lover becomes hard sometimes.

Therefore I feel myself a little bit confused and tired.

But, I still have some good song inventory in my Shazam tags.

Thanks God, we have Shazam! 

By the way, Kodaline are an Irish rock band which is originally known as 21 Demands.

I met him while I was making a search for a new acoustic song in Youtube.

When I realized that he had more than 65 mio clicks for his video I decided to listen to him.

Maybe you've already memorized the lyrics but I should share this song today.

Edward Christopher "Ed" Sheeran (born 17 February 1991) is an English singer-songwriter. 

"I'm gonna pick up the pieces,
And build a Lego house
If things go wrong we can knock it down"

Today's session is coming from Pharrell Williams.

I couldn't believe my eyes when see in my screen that he was born in 1973.

He seems so young.

"Because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I’m happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like that’s what you wanna do"

David Jon Gilmour, (born 6 March 1946), is an English
musician, singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist.
He is best known for his work as the guitarist and
co-lead vocalist of the progressive rock band Pink Floyd.

 When I hear this song I remember the summer of 2003.
I was working in a hotel and the guitarist in the restaurant
was playing this song every evening.

"Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?

I was bored from Blogger, thus I was out for a while, but now I'm back.

And I found a new hero who is making acoustic covers.

I listened Dark Horse from Katy Perry in the 56th Grammy awards for the first time.

Tyler Ward realized a similar performance with the acoustic guitar, which I liked so much!

I should search more for acoustic songs.

Maybe you can propose some?

"Make me your Aphrodite
Make me your one and only
But don’t make me your enemy"

After Pink's performance @ 56th Grammy awards, I wanted to share this song.

But this time, the singer is not Pink, it is a young lady, Nicole Cross.

There's not enough information about this girl on Google,

but we'll hear more in the future.

"Where there is desire, there is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame, someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns, doesn't mean you're gonna die
You've gotta get up and try"

Below file doesn't consist a video, it's just a nice song!

Nowadays, we're trying to play this song in our band like Within Temptation did,

but I found this cover, while I was making a search on Deezer,

 which is a little bit different from the others.

"You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium"

Although she is 25 years old she has already won 7 Grammy awards.

Taylor was very pretty and cute in the 56th Grammy awards, 

and she attracted the attention on herself with her shining dress also.

Thus, today's guest on my blog is the American singer-songwriter Taylor Alison Swift.

One additional note about her: Forbes estimates that she is worth over $220 million. 

"You go talk to your friends talk to my friends talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together
Like ever..."

Odak is a Turkish music band from İzmir.

I like this form of Lykke Li's song too much due to the xylophone's sound.

And nowadays I'm trying to understand how I can play the metallophone.

Let's sing together!

"You're my river running high, run deep, run wild"
