Modern Love Songs Vol.1
After highly appreciated Go to Indie Music Club vol.1 with its nearly 100 download on first day, i decided to collect another album, Modern Love Songs Vol.1. A broken voice Kristin Hersh singing "I married a boxer to keep me from fighting" opens my new Modern Love Songs Vol.1 collection. Dionne Warwick breaks your heart with Walk On By, a Burt Bacharach song. Seal had already covered the song before, but Seal comes with an amazing love song "If I Could", a duet with Joni Mitchell. Mitchell's big power comes out of its shell by Blue. It's a perfect modern composition, that's why everyone should know her works. Wait!, The Carpenters preforming nostalgic Rainbow Connection, words and music by Kenneth Asher and Paul Williams, The Rainbow Connection was mainly for Kermit from the Muppet Show. They recorded it from about 1979. After all great first five track, Kevin Ayers becomes a great listening experience, he always hides power of his talent. It's hard to love Kevin Ayers songs at first spin, and in my view Farewell Again is the most charming song of this compilation. I always put a cover to my playlists, that habit catches me here again, it's a dreamy Syd Barrett cover, a strong love song. An amazing #1 hit song from 80s, and also a duet, Endless Love closes my Modern Love Songs Vol.1 album.

Nice work! Seeing 'love songs' anywhere puts me right off, but there look to be a few corkers here...I'm off to download it and have a listen!
