Playlist March 30 - April 5

A couple of brilliant mash-ups that are free to download, among this week's selection:
  1. Led Snoopelin - Drop It Like It's A Whole Lott: Mashing Snoop Dogg's Drop It Like It's Hot with Led Zeppelin's classic anthem Whole Lotta Love. GENIUS!!
  2. Death Cab for Maddy - Hung Up On Soul: Death Cab for Cutie's Soul Meets Body meets Madonna's Hung Up. There's even a video and a version without Madonna's vocals
  3. Mary J Blige & U2 - One: Never thought I'd hear Bono reduced to a backing singer, but Mary just blows him away. I'm relieved that she sings it with U2 performing, and not some cheesy R&B production of this classic.
  4. Embrace - Nature's Law: Back with their trademark sound, if you're not moved by this soaring anthem.. you've got a heart of stone!
  5. Keisha White - Weakness In Me: In an age of overblown R&B ballads, this song is remarkable for its restraint and class.
  6. Josh Rouse - Subtitulo: With warm weather upon us, this a perfect album for lazing in the sun.

Thanks for that Talking Heads tip (you know who you are!)... this week's classic pick is their slinky version of Al Green's Take Me To The River.
