Album of the day: G I R L by Pharrell Williams

pharrell_girl_album_cover_a_s

Pharrell Williams is one of my favorite artists. His and Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky” was a theme song of last summer, then was “Blurred Lines” with Robin Thicke and after that absolutely amazing masterpiece “Happy”.

If I could select a theme song for One Happy Blog and as a soundtrack of my life, that would certainly be “Happy”. I cannot describe enough how much I love it! It’s lyrics, groovy music, to which you just can’t help, but dance and amazing 24 hour music video! This song has been on repeat and writing, doing stuff around the house and painting while listening to it, has been awesome and fun!

24 Hours of Happy!

The phrase that always cheers me up when I hear it is “Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof!” 🙂 Inspired by The Daily Post – Pick Me Up.

Of course, I was super excited when I heard about his recent album G I R L and Pharrell did not disappoint me. I rarely buy the entire album, but this one is so worth it. Every track is absolutely amazing and one track perfectly flows into another and creates a story. I love Pharrell’s vocals and his collaboration with Justin Timberlake (my love) and Alicia Keys (another love) is also awesome!

Ok, less talking… a song is worth a thousand words, so I’m sharing you my favorites from his album and if you would like to buy the album on iTunes, here is the link.

Have a happy day!

Love,

Natella 🙂

“Love Will Save The Day”

Sometimes life can make you crazy 
It can really put your body to the test 
You try so hard to make sure everything goes right 
And you find you’ve only wound up with a mess 
It’s a common situation 
Even though you feel abandoned and alone 
Child, you ain’t the first to experience the hurt 
So don’t panic when you hit the danger zone 

[Chorus:]

What you need’s a little change of heart 
Forget this fear and frustration 
Love will always play the greater part 
When your battles wear you down 
Here’s my advice – 
When you’re feeling down and out 
And you’ve got troubles on you mind 
Love will save the day 
When you’re feeling full of doubt 
And fear has got you in a bind 
Love will save the day 
When your worlds falling apart 
All you have to do is say a prayer 
And love will save the day 
There’s an answer in your heart 
So let your light shine on my dear 
And love will save the day 
Love will save the day [X4]

Many things in this world bring you down 
It’s a wonder you can make it through the day 
Well, you can’t sleep cause your problems are to deep 
And there’s always something getting in the way 
And when you turn on the evening news 
Mass confusion is the only thing you see 
Well there’s no question that we need a new direction 
Cause we all could use some peace and harmony 

[chorus]

Love is gonna save the day 
You’ve gotta believe it

Track of the day: Duke Dumont feat. Jax Jones – I Got U (MK Remix)

Duke Dumont feat. Jax Jones - I Got U - 1happyblog

Whitney Houston is and always will be a legend to me. I admire her voice and rebirth of her “Your love is my love” in this amazing house arrangement is an awesome gift. I love both the original version and the remixes and MK’s remix is one of my favorites.

Enjoy!

Tune of the day: Oliver $ & Jimi Jules – Pushing On

Loving this new track recently released by Defected Records. I admire old-school beats and soft vocals.

Following the success of their ‘Earl’ EP on Switzerland’s Hive Records, Berlin-based House staple Oliver $ reunites with Swiss Jazz House aficionado Jimi Jules to bring their anticipated debut release on Defected. ‘Pushing On’ opens with an infectious percussive medley composed of tropical triangles and melodious 808-like cowbells. With the gradual introduction of the moody, Frankie Knuckles inspired, bass line and tailing piano chords, the track slowly transforms into an energetic homage to classic Chicago House. Quick to take centre stage the track also features dusky vocal samples from Quantic Soul Orchestra, merging effortlessly with the wispy cymbal crashes, the song’s title and central lyrical theme, “Pushing On”, falls and confidently rises to drive the track to its spirited climax. And for those who don’t want the vocals there’s a dub thrown in for good measure. Already household names in their home countries, ‘Pushing On’ is sure set to solidify Oliver $ and Jimi Jules as international House providers.

Released 24/03/14

Video of the day: Bon Iver – Holocene

Bon Iver is my recent find and addiction. I can’t believe I haven’t heard of them before. Apparently, they won two Grammy awards in 2012.

I love the melody of the song and the voice of Justin Vernon. And the music video itself deserves an award. Shot in a beautiful Iceland, the landscapes are magnificent.

Enjoy!

Video of the day: 3 hours Meditation Music

I meditated to this music for the last few days and enjoyed my experience. This is great music, not only for meditation, but also for yoga, studying, working, doing things around the house and any other time you want to feel relaxed and concentrated at the same time. It is also great for sleep!

I really want to try meditating to this for the whole length of this mix – 3 hours! I’m sure the results will exceed all expectations 🙂

Sending love and light,
Natella
