Dat Bass

I absolutely love grooving. Sometimes I wish I was black since most of them are so naturally talented at singing and dancing. They just got them moves!!  Anyway, I have been listening to a lot of Motown, Soul R&B, Funk, Old Skool, Jazz and pop lately, thanks to Grooveshark's recommendations and I absolutely love it!

Stevie Wonder's Supertition has an awesome bass groove; it makes me want to learn bass just so I could play along!

Man, I miss jamming. I haven't been able to play anything at all since exams started. I can't wait for exams to be over so I can start practicing again and try to learn more riffs on the electric, improvise better on piano, maybe start the bass going if I can't get this bass line outta my head! I AM SO EXCITED FOR SPRING! I will have so much time after work to play and play and play!!!!!!!!!!!

I also discovered that I really like Amy Winehouse's music. She has good beats and she can sing. wow. I LIKE. At first I thought she was Adele, but then nope!

I haven't really been listening to their lyrics as I've been studying... but I love the music, the beats, the voice. I wish I could sing like them, play like them, just be in that groovin' zone.

I also really like this song: It's a Man's Man's Man's World, by James Brown. Mmmm, trumpets and the way the beat makes my heart sway~ then that nice electric riff in the back.... oh my..... his smooth deep voice...the way he performs with so much passion and oomph...

You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman, by Aretha Franklin


Okay, seriously back to studying now. I just wanted to make a note that I am really enjoying Grooveshark's recommended stations for me: Motown, Soul Jazz, Funk. Oh my goodness. So good. I love love love it.
