WONGIE SONG(s) OF THE MONTH: james vincent mcmorrow - cavalier / red dust


firstly, THAT VOICE! when he rises it to the dulcet falsetto, it turns into something heavenly. then to craft two very different, but just as impactful treasures, is a minor miracle in the making. though james was initially seen as a folkie, it turns out that his true passion lies in soul, and boy is the 1st single "cavalier" one of pure yearning. james' just released follow up "red dust" is both harmonious and dark at the same time (that last note which stretches out til the end is haunting to say the least). both songs are channeled darkly through the eyes of director aoife mcardle (not sure these songs deserve this kind of edge, but this is what james likes) which all in all will be worth your 10 mins of bliss!
