Monday Music Review on Sunday? Yes, because Monday comes quickly and I want you to be prepared in the morning when you roll out of bed in need of coffee and a good tune to get you moving. So, for this blog, the Monday Music Review comes a day early because it’s my party. And that’s the way I want it.
Welcome to my world, Jason Manns. If we were playing that fun game of “Who would you want to be trapped with in an elevator?”, I believe you'd make my short list.
Jason collaborated with Jensen Ackles on Crazy Love, a remake of the Van Morrison classic (and I believe that Michael Buble did a version too but don’t hold me to that). This song is simple, sweet, and makes you want to slow dance in your kitchen. If you have someone to dance with, that is; please don’t slow dance in your kitchen alone. People talk about people who do that. J
Crazy Love piqued my interest so I did a little research and found several more fantastic songs. Jason Manns has a sound all his own and he sticks to what he knows, giving the listener a steady romantic vibe yet somehow working in enough variety that the songs don't all sound alike.
When you need some romantic words, look no further than any Jason Manns song. Your Song, Journey, and Without You have Hallmark-worthy phrases and just take a look at these lines from Vision: “Next to you, everyone else disappears… I look into the room but all I see is you. I’m not complaining, it’s a beautiful view.” Let’s say it together: awwwwww.
I can picture Jason singing in small, intimate acoustic shows rather than large stage shows. He doesn’t seem to be interested in fame or name recognition, Jason clearly just loves to sing and I just love to listen.
