Hello all! So I've actually planned out specific posts for every day, almost. I will probably be doing random posts through out, but today is YouTube Wednesday! What is does this mean? It means that every Wednesday, I will post 3-5 of my favorite YouTube videos of the week. These will most likely be music videos, covers, original from youtube artists, and things of that nature. Let's just get started!
1. Kina Grannis & AJ Rafael - You Can Close Your Eyes (James Taylor Cover)
I've watched this video multiple times ever since it landed in my subscription box. It has three things I love. James Taylor, Kina Grannis, and AJ Rafael. My love for James Taylor goes back to the days of my young childhood. My dad used to put his records on (still does). I was too young to fully comprehend the music I was listening to, but as I got older, my appreciation for true, beautiful music flourished. I like to believe that my love for acoustic pop and folk came from listening to James Taylor. Kina Grannis just has a beautiful voice as does AJ, but the song itself is so wonderful and bittersweet. Highly recommended.
2. Pink - Glitter in the Air (Live Grammy's Performance)
So, I think this is one of my favorite YouTube videos of all time. The song is so simple, but it has this depth to it that I absolutely love. The fact that she doesn't lip synch only serves as a testament to the artist that she is. You can't watch this and not be impressed.
3. Sam Tsui - King of Anything (Sara Bareilles Cover)
This is just cute. It always puts a smile on my face. I also love the acapella aspect of it. Actually I love acapella anything.
So this was YouTube Wednesday! If you come across this post, I hope you stick around and follow my blog. Comment and spread the music love. :) Tomorrow is Up and Coming Thursday where I highlight an unknown/new/underrated/etcetcetc band or artist whom I'm absolutely LOVING!
