album of the day: Once
Artist: Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova
Album: Once: Music From the Motion Picture
For fans of The Frames, Damien Rice, and those who like their music with emotion & passion exposed bare. A solid record from top to bottom. While the songs may have been pulled from various discs (The Cost, The Swell Season, etc), I believe the versions have been captured especially for the film.
This is one of those records that I hope gets strong word of mouth. It is something special. Songs to check out include Falling Slowly, When Your Mind’s Made, Gold, and Fallen From The Sky.
Listen to Once on Yahoo! Music Unlimited.
Here is video of Glen performing Falling Slowly in Toronto.
