There is such a large amount of fabulous music out there - I keep tripping over great songs and then get stuck on that artist for a while. I recently heard Chris Isaak on CBC Radio 2 singing his major hit Wicked Game and I was reminded that he has an incredible voice and a great sound.
According to Wiki, Christopher Joseph "Chris" Isaak was born June 26, 1956 in California.. He is both a rock musician and an occasional actor.
After the tune played on the radio, the program host went on to say that the video which accompanied the song was the hotest, sexiest video he had ever seen and he remembers the video every time he hears the song. Because of the video he thinks of the song as the most romantic he has ever heard. I had to watch the video and I have to agree - I would vote for a guy like Chris Isaak and a romp on the beach and in the ocean any day... LOL

I ended up buying his Best of Chris Isaak (Remastered) album and there are some wicked great songs on it. I listened to it all the way up on my drive to my Collingwood Shangri-La. I thought I would share the video which has resulted in a mellow mood and me waking up humming this morning and is really appropriate for my very mellow day at my Collingwood Shangri-La.
Wicked Game"
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you.
No, I don't want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I don't want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you (This world is only gonna break your heart)
What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way.
What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you.
What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way.
What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you and,
I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you.
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you,
No, I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I... (This world is only gonna break your heart)
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
Nobody loves no one.

...but well worth it. Each CD just gets better and you can see the improvement in the way the voices interact. Seb especially just blew me away.
ReplyDeleteWhile I like most of the songs on this CD, I'm torn between Crying and Come What May as my favorites. Crying always belonged to Roy Orbison, but dueting with Rebekah del Rio really put the Il Divo version over the top. Just beautiful.
I might wish for more tracks, but this CD is well worth the money. I highly recommend it.
