Bit of a random topic, but have you discovered any new music (not currently played on R1) which you like?

I've discovered Melody Gardot. Spotted her on TV a little while ago, and bought the album. Gorgeous. :-) Check out her life story by clicking on the link!!

The new Killers song isn't currently on the playlist, although I have a feeling that it will be soon.

It's cracking.

(I can't find it on YouTube just now, although it was there last night. Search on The Pirate Bay for it.)

It was Jo Whileys song of the week thingymajigger.

The lyrics don't make sense. Still good though.

It's randomly amusing me that the title of this topic is gonna take people sideways! I can picture the vast amounts of people who will log on, and think, what the Hell is a Melody Gardot! 8)

*Reads wiki article, sees the word "jazz", decides not to bother with her*

I'm amazed even Wiki is describing her stuff as "jazz". It really isn't, its easy listening middle of the road nothing music, and even that not of the best. She wouldn't have had any recognition at all if she didn't have the sympathy vote because of her disability.

I haven't read the wiki article, but just the name conjures up images of Katie Melua, which is very bad... the name sounds very easy listening, middle of the road.

Oh blimey, Katie Melua is a goddess in comparison. She can sing. She can write a melody! Not my cup of tea, but Katie Melua is talented.

Agreed she is talented, I just seem to nod off listening to her. She's musical magnolia.

Just find her dull, with an annoying whispering type voice. Each to their own I suppose, just a bit too middle of the road for me.

Yes...

Check out the CHUGGA CHUGGA at bbc.co.uk/radio 2 then click on Russell Brand.

The Chugga Chugga will certainly be number 1! (God help us all!!!) That said I love it!

I would do a youtube link but can't as I am in Disney Florida and probably youtube is a little too subversive for their sevrer; hence banned!!!
