Alisan Porter had a interesting journey to winning The Voice. She played Curly Sue in the movie by the same name. She was also on Star Search as a kid. Now she wins the American version of The Voice. Her vocal range can go from powerful to subtle. I can see why she won this. Her coach Christina Aguilera became the first woman coach to win too. Congratulations Alisan.
Tonight the 10th season of NBC’s The Voice concludes with a two hour spectacular and the crowning of The Voice. It’s been a great season. I am pulling for Laith or Alisan.
Here is something different for Tunes Tuesday. Last night was the finals of NBC’s The Voice and this song by Hannah Huston was incredibly catchy and soulful. Check it out.
This song seems to be appropriate for the times in which we live. “Russians” comes from the 1985 album Dream of The Blue Turtles. Sting’s early solo work inspired me and helped me shape my world view as a teenager. America might not be at odds with the Russians like we were back in the day but there is still a little animosity. Today there are new people we are afraid of.
This song seems to have had some legs to it. I hear it a lot on the radio station playing the hits of my youth. It has a 80’s sound to it but it still feels modern today.
