A Soulful Giveaway!
November 17, 2008 by Caryn
Update
This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winner is Amber. Congratulations!
We have just ventured off to the desert for a quick mini getaway and the drive seemed like the perfect time to pop in Seal’s new CD entitled Soul. As soon as the soulful melody of A Change Is Gonna Come started playing, I knew this was going to be a favorite of mine. I grew up with a father who played nothing but the “oldies” and soul is still one of his favorite music genres. Waves of nostalgia swept over me as I remembered all of those car rides to school, made more pleasant by “good music.” An album is a hit with me if it can evoke emotion and change my mood.
Seal has a way of taking classics like Here I Am (Come and Take Me) and It’s Alright and giving them a hint of modern edge while retaining the songs’ personality and originality. Soul collaborated with legendary producer David Foster to create an album that bridges the old with the new in a reverent way.

I like to hear different singers takes on other crooners songs (covers) and I think Seal does a beautiful job with James Brown’s It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World.
After perusing the Delights.com site I must say the Smencils (made from recycled newspaper…?!!) are so unique and brilliant.
