MUSIC: Songs For You, Truths For Me

At only 24 years old, James Morrison is quickly rising to the fame he deserves. Hailing from England, and growing up poor with a variety of musical styles ranging from soul to folk being played at home, Morrison has developed an emotional style that is both easy to listen to and heart-tugging at the same time.

If his latest album, Songs For You, Truths For Me, is any indication, this guy is destined to be the next big thing that comes out of the Queen's country. Highlights of the album include "You Make It Real" and the Nelly Furtado duet "Broken Strings." Another favorite of mine is "Nothing Ever Hurt Like You" which is groovy song writing at it's finest, in my humble opinion.

I was naive and wide eyed,
but you made me see,
that you dont get to taste the honey,
without the sting of a bee.


Check out this album and help true artists with talent reach the levels of success they deserve and get a little I-knew-them-way-back-when bragging rights with your friends. Heck, tell your friends now. This is one of the best albums you'll purchase this year!
