Over the past week I have been listening to some new music and a good mix of older music. First up is a song from a new artist, Charlene Soraia, it’s a beautiful cover Wherever You Will Go which was originally sung by The Calling. Readers in the UK might recognise the song from the TV as it is currently being used as the music to the stunning Twinnings advert.

You can watch the whole video of Wherever You Will Go below.

The next artist I have been enjoying this week is an old artist but with a new album that features duets with some very contemporary artists. Yes Tony Bennett has a new album out revisiting some classic tunes but with the help of Lady Gaga, Michael Bubble and the late Amy Winehouse. I especially like his duet with Lady Gaga, its a very good version of The Lady Is A Tramp, don’t be put off by Lady Gaga, she actually has a good singing voice (if she chooses to use it properly). You can also see Tony Bennett on Later… with Jools Holland from last week on the iPlayer.

I’ve also been listing to another older artist this week, Toot and the Maytals. I’ve grown up with Reggae as my dad is an ardent fan and collector of all things reggae and all its various off shoots of music genres and therefore I know of Toots’ music. However, a couple of weeks ago I heard a very good song by Toots’ that I was unaware of, I’d properly heard it countless times before but never really noticed it. That song was Reggae Got Soul and you can see it in the below video.

One last song I thought I’d share with you is another older song that I stumbled across the other day after not hearing for years and that was One Of Us by Joan Osborne.

As always if you think I should be made aware of some new, or indeed old music, then please don’t hesitate to contact me or leave a comment on here.
