Having told you all about norwegian ballad warbler Ingrid Olava, I would like you all to say 'howdy' to the lovely Ingrid Michaelson.
I first came across Ingrid when on holiday with one of my good friends in Portugal... her song 'Be OK' was on the radio in nearly every taxi we went in and, mixed with some portugese wine, became quite the favourite of ours...
However my love affair with Miss Michaelson continued when i heard some more of her songs....
Particularly touching is the song 'Giving Up', which sounds like it should be about the end of a relationship, but cheeky Ingrid is actually talking about giving up on second guessing in a relationship and just living in the moment...
But possibly my favourite is the beautiful 'Sort Of',
The lyrics are stunning! I think we have all felt the frustration of being able to be lifted up so high by someone but knowing that that person can't reciprocate this love, which is crushing you...
I could seriously talk about another ten songs that are completely embedded into the Soundtrack to My Life but i shall leave you with a simple and sweet duet with fellow Soundtrack-er Sara Bareilles...
Is Love Alive....
