First is Cœur
de pirate
I
happened across this artist by serendipity a few years back on itunes and fell
in love. She is a French pop artist and although I don’t speak French, I get
it. Music has that mystical quality… you don’t need to hear or understand the
words in order to feel the purpose and emotion of the song. I’m
a fan of her more soulful, quiet tracks. She exposes a very softness in her
tone and in her speech; it’s very soothing and comforting. And her beautiful piano
tracks bring with it a dreamy nostalgia.
Her
two albums are both a little older, so the songs are cheaper. Here’s some of my
favorite songs:
Comme
des enfants
Fondu
au noir
Corbeau
Francis
C’etait
salement romantique
Place
de la republique
La
petite mort
Go
check her out, I promise you won’t be disappointed!
Here
is her website if you’re interested:
Next up is Lorde
She
only has one major song playing on the radio and it’s sad, she is an
amazing artist. If you need a subtle dose of ego, self -confidence and realism,
she’s your gal. She is down to earth and real as real in her lyrics. It’s not
prettied up for anyone and you can tell she doesn’t care much what others
think. Her confidence goes beyond the music and her beautiful magnetic voice is
empowering.
Here’s
a few of my favorites:
Team
Glory
and Gore
A
World Alone
Her
website is genius, take a peek!
