WONGIE SONG OF THE WEEK: emeli sande - read all about it (acoustic)

emeli sande - read all about it (acoustic)
though the US audiences missed out on emeli's 2012 olympics opening ceremony performance, all was quickly forgotten with her haunting rendition of 'read all about it' that NBC allowed on the air to kick off the closing ceremony. the song, is actually an extended vocal version of her #1 hook on rapper professor green's smash hit of the same name. THIS version is uber lovely and deserves the buzz that's bringing her debut album 'our version of events' back to the top of the UK albums heap. love!

WONGIE SONG OF THE WEEK: phillip phillips - home

phillip phillips - home
getting a serious boost as the NBC theme music for the US women's olympic team, this gentle singalong track also happens to be the best official debut release by an american idol winner ever (it actually feels like a legitimate single and not some cheesy 'moment of truth' crap). phillip phillips himself looks uber bland, but with more songs like this, there is still hope for the guy to be an interesting artist.
