I'm not done yet! ... So here's a few other tracks that have made an impact on me recently.
Men At Work is one of those 80's bands that I have never paid much attention to. I know a couple of their hits, of course, but I never listened to them on my own time, so to speak. I decided to give them a closer listen and found out that I quite like this band! Last year I found out that I like their fellow Aussies, Midnight Oil, so maybe it's all a sign that I should explore the music scene of the Australian 80's some more.
Men at Work - Overkill
Already a big fan of Cristina Branco and Teresa Salgueiro, I'm always looking for more fadistas to dazzle me and break my heart. Reading some issues of the folk and world music magazine, I found out that I like Carla Pires. Here's one of her songs. Notice the character of her voice. I have a feeling she's going to become a big part of my life in the future. This is music for the soul.
I don't remember where I found the following, but it's pretty damn good!
Maria Simoglou - Matta Zeybegi
