Song of the day.........Depeche Mode with "Behind The Wheel"

Today's song of the day is from Depeche Mode's 1987 album "Music for the Masses." This is one of the standout tracks from that album. The track starts off with drums and bass, then the keys and guitar jump in. I've always really liked this track.....maybe it's because I love the minor chords. They just have this kind of eerie feel to them, and they are used pretty extensively in this song. So, check out this track from Depeche Mode...."Behind The Wheel."

Song of the day........Pearl Jam with "Daughter"

One of my favorite moments of the Pearl Jam 20 movie that came out a couple of years ago was the footage of Eddie and Stone working on the creation of "Daughter." It was one of their biggest hits and it is just a brilliantly written song. It was one of the first songs that really made me appreciate the different sounds an instrument could make by using an alternate tuning. Stone's guitar is in an alternate tuning throughout "Daughter," and it really gives the song this kind of eerie feel to it. Just a great Pearl Jam song in my opinion. So, check out "Daughter."

Song of the day............Train with "Marry Me"

Today's song of the day is from Train's "Save Me San Francisco" album. This is one of my favorites from this album. I enjoy hearing rock bands put out tracks that are very stripped down. The album version doesn't have a whole lot of instrumentation on it either. Guitar, vocals, and a subtle use of keys. I think it's a really cool song that is a bit different from the typical Train song. So, check out Train with "Marry Me."
