Music Scene

Here is a list of some of my favorite musicians.

Savage Garden When the group came out with their first hit "I Want You," I knew I was going to like their music. So I went out and bought their self-titled album. Around the beginning of '98, another song from this album hit the chart --- "Truly, Madly, Deeply". When I saw the music video of this song, it immediately hit a tender spot in my heart. I knew it was filmed in Paris right away, as I visited that city a few years back. There were so much more to see and feel than time allowed, it made me feel "homesick" to Europe.

George Benson Since the release of "Breezin'" almost 20 years ago, I have been a fan of George Benson. Love his light and playful touch on the guitar strings. His latest album "That's Right" is a very nice one to have as BGM while working at my 'puter. In the fall of '97, George Benson came to Victoria for a one-night-only concert. I went there, of course, and enjoyed it immensely. His music never fails to melt my heart. Oh, BTW, I got his autograph on the cover of his album. :-)

Collective Soul When they came out on the hit chart with "December" from their self-titled album, I just fell in love with them. Now their second album "Disciplined Breakdown" is out and my favorite is "Giving."

Enigma I sometimes end up working backwards, and Enigma was one such case. "Return to Innocence" had a great impact on me, bought the album "The Cross of Changes," discovered that there was a first album, bought it, and so on. Of all three albums they have released, my favorite is their first one "MCMXC a.D."

Enya This is another good BGM type of music while writing. My cranky hub calls it "elevator music" but my son calls it "elegant music perfect for a romantic date." Hhhmm, my son seems to have better taste than his father.... Some of her pieces I enjoy playing on the piano.
