Elitsa & Stoyan was the 2007 Bulgarian entry for Bulgaria. I love the older traditional music woven in with modern beats. I have been reading We Are Not Alone by Kristen Lamb- it’s amazing and over the next few weeks I’m going to be adding to my blog, hopefully making this more interesting 🙂 So […]

Today’s video is a bit different. This one is from t.A.T.u. A Russian teen girl band- or at least it was when the video was made. I like it because it shows that across the world people- in this case teens- are dealing with the some of the same issues, looking for acceptance, safety, and […]
Alica McKenna Johnson Music Monday Alica Mckenna Johnson, British music, Music Monday, Seth Lakeman 2
One of the things I love about foreign music is getting a sense of where that person lives, and Seth Lakeman totally does this. You can hear his accent when he sings- I hate it when they train themselves to sing without an accent- and his songs are all revised versions of older folk songs […]
