An amazing voice and poetry. Adele's words are really stories women can relate to. But she also sings them in a way I can only imagine happened in nightclubs in the 60's where a singer could make an audience go completely quite in awe of her gifted voice. No skinny dancers, no lasers or huge screens. Only a piano and herself, that's talent.

Gray has been the color for this month, neutral in between shades, both for scenery and emotions. For some contrast to this hectic week, a little of soft sounds. Splendid music, a must listen during my working hours.

Favorites: Kolniður, Around Us, Go, Tornado

Expressing heart and thoughts through work is such a beautiful way to communicate, in some way I feel lucky to have a sort of tool to show some of my opinions. In my case, I get to use graphics, but I've always loved the way actors, dancers, musicians use their talent to share emotions with others.

Cute indie style from Krysten Ritter, loved her sound and personality. I also loved her in Gravity.

A cold saturday, another rainy day, looks like the days of light drizzle are here. After some errands I'm finally home, put some noodles, cuddling up in my blanket as I listen to this lovely song.

Every time I get into this sharing mania, I kind of feel so close to my friends. It all started this morning, working on a logo (after assembling my tables, succesfully). I got up (still kind of stuck), took one book, in search of inspiration, grabbed my coffee, and then I started thinking, cause that happens when I try to distract myself from my tasks.

I thought of the times when I was single, and dreamed of having a kid, then a song came to my mind. Went to the shelf where my old cd's are (the ones I brought from Monterrey). I started laughing, remembering all sort of things. I think I have a specific memory for some of the songs.

Then I shared on facebook what I was doing, my good friend Dany replied. And finally we got to the point of a little mission: listen to women's music for today. Since one of my recent acquisitions is indeed an extraordinary album, from a girl, here's my share. I love this album, I play it a lot for my work mood, It makes me imagine things.

Love: First Train Home, Tidal, Aha!, Half Life.

¡Enjoy!

Listening

Lately I play a lot this beautiful album, I really liked the style, the lyrics, the voices. It's a good record for work, really nice and smooth, I LOVE IT.
I saw their performance on Ellen and when she interviewed them, Pete said that the picture of the cover was taken by his cousin, completely improvised, in a recording studio in his garage, it's so beautiful.

Here's one of the songs, my favorite, Shampoo. Come on, take a break, grab a cup of tea, press play and look outside the window. Enjoy!
