Album Review: "Paracosm" by Absolutely

"Paracosm" by Absolutely album cover
I've been talking to you, I've been writing stories in my head

Of how it's gonna go, when I know that I know it's you I'll spend forever with

I've fallen for illusions, misled by confusion, I just couldn't understand

Why I'd be pushed aside, lost my dignity and pride, I've fallen for a counterfeit


I just don't know you yet

But I know you've been sent from God

To teach me to love again

'Cause I think I must've forgot

Oh-oh, how to love

Oh-oh, and how to be loved

Lyrics taken from I Just Don’t Know You Yet Absolutely

My introduction to Absolutely was her Vevo live performance of the absolutely (pun intended) stunning song and best ballad of the 2020s so far "I Just Don't Know You Yet" popping up on my computer screen as a recommendation after I had just watched Josh Levi's performance of his song "Don't Go". Usually, those recommendations are ignored but for some reason I decided to watch the video and my life was forever changed. Ever since that day "I Just Don't Know You Yet" has been placed on a very exclusive list. This list is even more precious than my favourite songs of all time list. It has been placed on my Songs I Would Be Pissed I Didn't Hear Because I Dead list. Yes, that is HOW MUCH I love this song! Talk bout high expectations for this album!

Woman in The Mirror by Sacha album cover Ads can be such a nuisance! However, we have all had a moment where those pesky advertisements can be life changing. My discovery of the Canadian country artist Sacha can be counted as one of those life changing moments. After watching the video for "Later Tonight" by John Ross, YouTube played an ad of song called Shooting Star. Curiosity got the better of me so I went to the video to hear the entire song. Instantly I fell in love with the song and had to find out more about this new artist.

Album Review: "June" By De'Wayne

"june" by DE'WAYNE album cover "She's a synthesizer, Orchestrates the band, She's got the whole world, Wrapped around her finger, She's a synthesizer, Baby don't you understand, She's my heaven she's my earth, She's my woman she's my man." Lyrics taken from  https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/dewaynejackson/synthesizer.html The song "synthesizer" was how I was introduced to the wonderful artist called De'Wayne. I came across a snippet of the video on Twitter and decided to give the song a listening ear and I instantly feel in love. This new discovery filled me with so much joy because as an avid music listener I  always seek to expand my musical horizons to listen to genres I usually do not follow. Therefore, coming across a Rock N Roll artist that I instantly liked was so exhilarating. I listened to the song until my own ears and music player got fed up with me and was even more elated when I discovered he was releasin...
