Nothing Left To Lose


... come on and we'll sing, like we were free
push the pedal down watch the world around fly by us
come on and we'll try, one last time
I'm off of the floor
one more time to find you...



I had the pleasure of going to the Ogden tonight to treat my senses to the music of Mat Kearny. I recently discovered his music listening to my favorite radio station KBCO.

What I find unique about Mat's music is how he seamlessly intertwines spoken word into his music and singing. I feel he does it so elegantly compared to other musicians using a similar technique... Sorry G. Love!

To sum up a great show, Mat is a very mature musician who kept the rhythm and energy flowing throughout the entire show. I see him going very far in the years to come.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, "Nothing Left to Lose" is on my hit list of songs to play on my new guitar using these tabs I found online.

Guitar Songs to Learn

Over the past several weeks, I've been listening to my iPod in "shuffle" mode and picking out songs I'd like to learn to play on my guitar using the "My Top Rated" feature (*****). I feel very inspired today and my iPod is doing a great shuffle job (I swear, there must some artificial intelligence with it), so I've decided to translate this from "My Top Rated" to a real list:
  • Fire and Rain - James Taylor
  • Desire - U2
  • Runaround - Blues Traveler
  • Yellow - Coldplay
  • Time of Your Life - Greenday
  • Rodeo Clowns - Jack Johnson/Ben Harper
  • No Such Thing - Johh Mayer
  • Nothing Left to Lose - Mat Kearney
  • Best of My Love - The Eagles
  • Dust in the Wind - Kansas
  • You Can't Always Get What You Want - Rolling Stones
  • America - Simon & Garfunkel
  • Rocky Mountain High - John Denver
  • What I'm Fighting For - Matisyahu
  • World Of Peace/Shalom Rav - RebbeSoul
  • Laugh Like I Could Learn to Love - Gus
  • My Stupid Mouth - Johh Mayer
  • More Than a Feeling - Boston
  • Put Your Records On - Corrine Baile Rae
  • Cruel to Be Kind - Nick Lowe
  • Karma Police - Radiohead
  • Margaritaville - Jimmy Buffett
  • No Rain - Blind Melon
  • For What It's Worth - Dusty Springfield
  • Under the Milky Way - The Church
  • Shiver - Coldplay
  • Last Worthless Evening - Don Henley
  • Crazy Little Think Called Love - Queen
  • Singing In My Sleep - Semisonic

  • Beer For My Horses - Willie Nelson
  • I Had a King - Joni Mitchell
  • Mr. Jones - Counting Crowes
