Dannielle's Song of the Morning: "Hallelujah" by Jeff Buckley, from his irrerasable album Grace. A sweet, soft and spiritual kick-off to the WEEK OF THE DANNI! check it.
How about some props from the man who wrote the fargin song - Leonard Cohen (who, incidentally sings the song Chelsae Hotel No. 2 which I sent you this week)...I'd advise you to check out the original version by the man himself.
If you check out the comment's from Anthony's podcast this week he put up a YouTube video of J. Buckley playing the song, and HE gives props to both Leonard Cohen and Nina Simone, who also sang the song. This version is beautiful and has special meaning to me. Plus, not long after this Jeff Buckley drowned, I sense in his version that somehow he understood in a strange way his imminent and early demise.
Dannielle is a world-wandering, avoider of responsibility and writer. While searching for the world's best bourbon, she's currently producing a travel companion blog launching in 2011.
