Song of the Day: "Hourglass" (Ambyon Remix) by Vidoux
My song of the day, which I stumbled upon while browsing my favorite music-sharing/recommending site LetsLoop, is "Hourglass" (Ambyon Remix) by Vidoux.
This ambient, chill-wave concoction is pretty and so much needed for my jangly nerves, chakras both over-and under-active and shaken confidence. #MusicIsMyShaman

Song of the Day: "For the Longest Time" by Billy Joel
It's a feat because I insist on singing all the parts, from the friendly tenor of frontman Billy Joel to the contributions of the trio of a cappella masters who startle him as he sits pensively amid the wreckage of an hours-ended high school reunion.
I also join in the regular beatbox of doo-wop nonsense words and octave straddling "ah-ing" peppered throughout "For The Longest Time." Let's just say it takes breath control and one of those gas station bottles of 5-hour energy drink.
I'm an ambitious gal, so I'm thinking of also incorporating—after considerable practice—the finger snaps and hand claps that punctuate this 1983 hit.
This is actually my favorite Billie Joel song. Is that weird? I love the lyrics and presentation.
