Music I Like: Javier Colon edition

Many found out about this talented singer-songwriter earlier in the year when NBC's The Voice premiered on TV. I, however, have had the pleasure of listening to Javier since high school. I definitely remember going to a concert Mya was headlining for the sole reason that Javier was opening for her. While I'm sorry he is no longer doing R&B, I am thrilled that he won on The Voice and that he has an opportunity to shine. Javier's voice is so honest and clear and you can tell that the man loves his craft. That said, let me share a couple of my favorite songs by him:

In Your Hands

If I Never Get To Heaven

 Landslide (feat. Stevie Nicks)

Slow Motion

Music I Like: Josh Lehman

I came across this singer when I was looking at some new music by Passion and CANNOT stop listening to him. The only way I can describe Josh Lehman's voice is to say that when I hear him sing it feels like swimming in warm, clear water. Here are a few songs I feel really highlight his talent:

Trust Issues (Drake cover) - Josh Lehman, Daniel De Bourg, Passion

Marvin's Room (Drake Cover) - Josh Lehman

Amazing (Tank cover) - Josh Lehman

Music I Like: Matt Nathanson and Justin Nozuka

This post is inspired by my "After Tonight" Pandora radio station. I was listening while studying for the GRE and the following came on which totally made my day (and sing-along time :D):

After Tonight - Justin Nozuka

Come On Get Higher - Matt Nathanson

Music I Like: Passion and Melvin Gutierrez

I love music and appreciate Youtube as it allows me to listen to people who are honestly talented but may not have commercial success. I want to share a few songs by a couple of dude's from the Left Coast. I stumbled upon Passion in college and found his buddy Melvin when I heard their duet version of Cater 2 U by Destiny's Child. Check out that cover and a couple of other songs below:

Cater 2 U (cover) - Passion and Melvin Guiterrez

I Don't Care - Passion

Lullaby (cover) - Melvin Gutierrez
