Safe Cube - Another Long Day

The perfect mellow song for the day after a big Passover seder. Safe Cube is made up of a group of musicians who are all good friends and would jam on a balcony not very far from the sea of Tel Aviv. You can listen to their chill new album over on bandcamp.

Didn't you notice
That you did something cruel?
So cruel
Left me here feeling like such a fool
Now I'm full

Well I guess you need me now
I guess you need me
And you want all my loving for sure

And it's another long day

I can't promise anything anymore
I just won't wait here by the door

And I guess you want me now
I guess you want me
And you need all my loving for sure

And it's another long day

Well I guess you need me now
I guess you need me
And you want all my loving for sure

And it's another long day
And it's another long day
And it's another long day

Static and Ben El Tavori - The Coastal Road

There's nothing like a feel-good summer song, and this is already one of the biggest summer songs of the year (and for good reason!). Something in the "it'll all be good" feeling reminds me a lot of Cafe Shahor Hazak's mega hit "It'll be ok" and there's this general feeling about enjoying the sunny day without thinking too much about the future. You can't ignore the line "there's a whole generation waiting to hear that the chaos has an end (it won't happen)" which pretty much says it all.

On the coastal road, wind in the hair is sweeping the view,
The guys in the back can't stop talking,
Ya ya ya it'll all be good,
Ya ya ya,
On the coastal road, wind in the hair is sweeping the view,
The guys in the back can't stop talking,
Ya ya ya it'll all be good,
Ya ya ya it all flows good.

A foot on the gas and a finger on the radio,
Putting out my problems like cigarettes,
My window is open so I'm sure the wind,
Will tell the world what I'm singing to it,
Oh ya ya ya it's so good,
Oh ya ya ya not to think,
To let the music take over,
The guys and me to the end!

On the coastal road....

I'm a king at planning the route,
The gas will be enough for the whole way (kinda),
The music in the car is begging to be turned up
And even if you turn it down- no one is going to stop singing!!
There's a whole generation - waiting to hear,
That the chaos has an end (it won't happen).
Forget the traffic, and let's start driving,
Let love go first!!

On the coastal road...

When the sunset paints - the sky in red,
And the day is already over,

No, it's not time yet to breathe until we've come so far,
There's no way that we'll stop we won't give up,
And the night isn't over yet, Waze can annoy us until tomorrow,
There's no way we're going on route 6!! (it's expensive)

On the coastal road...

Jordi's the designated driver,
Ben-el always buys junk at Yellow,
Stat Boy, Stat Boy...
Wait wait stop!
Where's Stat Boy?

Lior Perla - Don't Go

For me, it's the summer
For you, it's the freezing cold
And when you smile
I immediately
Fall into the net
Don't go

Friends who I used to love
Don't see me
Release me
I will go on my way
Enemies who I used to hate
Surprise me
They're not going against me
But actually with me

For me, it's home
For you, it's a stop on the way
When I think just about you
The tears come to me
Don't go

For me, it's home
For you, it's a stop on the way
You see
That's the connection
And that's all
That's left in the net
Don't go

Yemen Blues Feat. Oxmo Puccino - Satisfaction

Yemen Blues have finally released their first video and it was well worth the wait. It's been a long time since I've encountered a video that not only has a strong message but is also just so fun to watch! Beautiful and inspiring.

See the beauty in the differences between us and the power of our similarity
When I look at you I see the grace in you
Seize the moment of the soul to reach satisfaction
Seize the moment of faith to become stronger
In every good you do the world changes with it
