Diana Krall's Christmas album has a beautiful Irving Berlin song on it. No not White Christmas but Count Your Blessings. Especially in our selfish Me Me Me times it's nice to be reminded that there are other things more important than money and power. It's the last song on the album.
Your favorite song from a RECENT cd release?
Mine is ''The painter'' from Neil Young. It is a great song, just about THE perfect song with acoustic guitar. It has nice lyrics, timing, and of course Young's unique voice. It is a joy to listen to. Sound wise, it sounds a bit congested in the low end, but who cares. I'll take a less-than-perfect song gem on a car radio any day over any Diana Krall song ( o.k Krall fans, flame me!) played on my home system. All a matter of taste, of course!
