Acoustic Mondays

Well, as mentioned in the test post (which im sure recived somewhere around a MILLION hits :P) Iv decided to try and have theme days. Im hoping to be able to upload a couple of songs for your listening pleasure per post, and basically, we'll see how everything works out.

Now, one of the best things about acoustic performances is how unique they usually are. One of my favourite places to hear live acoustic performances has to be Jo Whiley's live lounge which has had some utterly fantastic one-off performaces. Sadly most of these proceed to sit around in the bbc vaults of time and are therefore unavaiable for out listening pleasure. In saying this i do believe one of the newer bbc radio stations does do an archive show exactly FOR this, but, i dont have DAB or the memory capable of finding such? Ha!
Anyway, to start everything off i thought i'd one of my favourite performaces, despite never actually hearing it 'live'.

# Girl From Mars (acoustic) - Ash


For the second track of today, i've decided to share with you an acoustic version of one of my favourite songs. I got into The Starting Line a long while back, i'm gonna guess it was PureVolume or somewhere like that which led me to being able to blag a few of their tracks. Anyway, The Best of Me has been on my "all time fav's" list for a while now, but it wasnt until recently, after id FINALLY got round to buying the album, that random web browsing led me to finding this wonderful acoustic version. It really is a lovely little song, and if you don't know it, you should definately check it out. As far as i'm aware this is unreleased, but, i could be wrong. If anyone knows of a single or w/e it's on, please tell me! I'd rather like to know =)
