i just got an idea.
as i've told u before, i'm on amiestreet (http://www.amiestreet.com), amie for short ;)
amie is an internet-site, and a social network of music-lovers around the world.
it is a place to get new music known! :D
we do this by finding music we like, buy it, and REComend it to others. writing a RECommendation is our way of sharing a song we really believe in with the whole community.
amie is where i found marina smile.gif
i've RECed many of her songs, and i now want to make another one. and i thought, maybe i could get help writing it!
Can u guys help?
help me pick a song to REComend
and write a REComendation.
I will then post the REComendation on amie, and we will have helped promote Marina and her music!
what do u think? can we do this ?

Trying to pick one Marina V song to rec is pretty difficult because they are all so good.
I would probably vote for "Here, There and Everywhere"
A) It's one of my favorite Beatles songs
B) Marina more than does it justice. This is one of the best covers I have ever heard. Marina's voice is perfect for a song like this; she gets the perfect mix of plaintive, longing and sentimental, without being sappy. Her vocals swoop and soar and just make you glad that you are listening to her sing.
Hope that helps smile.gif

It is very difficult to pick one song, milla. However, I like "I'll Be Alright", from Simple Magic, and "The Strength I Need" from the upcoming album because they are both so inspirational!! Hope this helps, I could've gone on and on and on, you get the idea! Peace!

I didn't quite get the discussion i hoped for on this, but i am very satisfied with the replies i got.
i'm therefore making 2 RECs
1. "Here, There and Everywhere"
Marina learned English by translating the Beatles songs. Here, There & Everywhere was written by Lennon/McCartney.

This album, LIVE AT SOUNDMOVES,were Recorded live on July 15 '06 in Sun Valley, CA @ SoundMoves Studios.
My love to Marina V and my friends on marinaVkomrades.com for helping with this REC! smile.gif
2."I'll Be Alright"
my friends on marinavkomrades.com wishes "I'll Be Alright", from Simple Magic, and "The Strength I Need" from the upcoming album to b RECed, because they are both so inspirational!!
So i'm RECing "I'll Be Alright" now, and chose to REC the one that's on LIVE AT SOUNDMOVES this time.
And we hope that Marinas NEW album MODERN FAIRYTALE and the song "The Strength I Need" will turn up here on amie, so i can REC that one too ;)
My love to Marina V and my friends on marinaVkomrades.com for helping with this REC! smile.gif

hey milla it's todd. great job with the support!! you should join us on the street team, we could use your enthusiasm and support there!! this was a wonderful idea you had, and i too am disapointed with the response. your enthusiasm is so welcome, so often, people will post once, introduce themselves, and we'll never hear from them again. so again, thanks for being here, and never stop thinking of ideas to promote marina's music!!! much respect to you, and by the way, i would like another freezing norwegian hug, please!!! ha.ha.ha. take care
