Missed my weekly music video last week. Coming back this week with Switchfoot and the quirky Happy is a Yuppie Word. It’s not Polka but I like it…
Saw these guys last night here at the Grove. Awesome is an overused word but it aptly describes the show and the mood crafted by the these guys, one from PA and the other three from Down Under.

Then again, maybe he has found something he was looking for.
For Valentine’s Day, music critic for the New York Daily News, Jim Farber, posted his top 100 love songs. I saw several songs on there that I like, including one I am not sure he got right. He has one of my all time favs at #59 – Shining Star by Earth, Wind & Fire (a moment of silent awe for EWF).
Ok, back. Thing is, I think he must have meant the Shining Star song by The Manhattans. Now that’s a love song.
Anyway, so being reminded of Shining Star by EWF, I looked for it on YouTube and found a couple of very unsatisfying versions by the original band. But I did find this cover by metal band Stryper which is actually pretty Sweet. Pretty Sweet, get it?
