Dear utopicmusic friends....
Today, before going to play with my band (oh yeah...it happens to me sometimes, too!) I decided to share with you a simply delicious song.
It's titled A Day in the soup, from a Norvegian band called Ping.
This histrionic gang is an old acquaintance of our blog, but recently they sent me a lot of music to listen to. And so, here i am!
Today is a gray day. It rains, it stops raining, it's raining again. I don't know if this song can be adapted to this unclear, contradictory climatic situation.
In any case, this song reminds me so much the The Radar Bros' sound. I spent a whole long winter traveling by car and listening to And the Surrounding Mountains, the Radar Bros' seco third album. Well guys, A Day in the Soup has the same discharged intensity, the same magic. When the keyboards and the charleston start... well... I get the shivers.
the famous utopicmusic listener....
But Ping's music is not ending here! Listen to the following Hick in the Mall, or to the psychedelic Mr. Will B, or again to Corny Crack Jimmy, which alternates humor and lyricism into a five-mad-minutes-song.
Finally, there are still My New Friend, Franz and Can You Sing?. In fact, we had already entered these three songs long ago and today they're reproposed.
Ping music. Nothing else, but simply delicious songs!
Many thanks... and see ya soon everybody!
