“Down to the Water’s Edge” with Ben de la Cour

KoralYoungLogo1ben

“Down by the Water’s Edge” is one that went straight to my sweet spot.  Why you may ask?  Ben de la Cour, at least with this single, has the stylings of The Highwaymen.  If you don’t know of the Highwaymen it was a group of country western singers that were kind of on the fringes of country music, they were Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, and Waylon Jennings.  I always loved their style when they where together or on their own and I think Ben has tapped into that same vibe.  The music video that Ben is sharing with us for “Down by the Water’s Edge” is also something I can see the Highway Men doing as well.  So if you like the Highwaymen you will dig Ben de la Cour’s “Down by the Water’s Edge” from his upcoming album Midnight in Havana.  Thanks to Ben for sharing his music video through his YouTube channel – Richard:

Batman: The Killing Joke Trailer

killing joke

DC Comics and Warner Bros. Animation has decided to produce Batman: The Killing Joke.  This is one of the few rated “R” animated movies that a company in the U.S. has made.  If you are a fan of the Batman mythos you know this was a rough and traumatic story and there really was no other way to adapt this story and have the same resonance.  So everyone be aware that this is a great heart breaking/gut wrenching story that is not intended for children.

Kelly Paige Doesn’t Want to “Get You Down”

blackpandaPRkelly

Kelly Paige is sharing, with the ComicPop listeners, her lyric music video to her power ballad “Get You Down”.  Kelly is hitting a home run with this bluesy/rock single that just gets your body moving.  I love the message as well…and it doesn’t necessarily apply to women.  No one should let anyone get them down.  If it isn’t happening in a relationship move on to better days.  Great single from Kelly, so check out the lyric video, for “Get You Down”, through her YouTube channel – Richard:

DC’s Superhero Girls Looking Fun

From what I have seen DC Superhero Girls is just plain fun.  It’s lighthearted and introduces some of DC’s strong female characters for a younger generation.  I believe you can watch most of the animated shorts on their YouTube Channel  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRdVJ9XqHCb6BqApCIO_TYg (where I am sharing the trailer from) and right now the figures are only available at Target stores.  I am looking at these and trying to decide which scale I want to get the heroes in…anyway here’s the trailer:

The Slovaks is sharing with our listeners their single “Meditate”.  Don’t let the title fool you though.  This is a hard rocking song that will get your blood pumping.  For those of you that need that jump start to your day this song will help you out.  The music video is pretty straight forward with the band performing the song. Give “Meditate”, from The Slovaks, a spin through  “Jeffrey Drag’s” YouTube channel – Richard:
