My One and Only Love

Yesterday, I received one of the sweetest, most gratifying messages I've ever gotten. It got me all welled up, and it made me think of how precious music truly is, allowing me to inspire and touch hearts in the simplest way. 

"Hi, my name is Tim, i have fallen in love with your voice since i first heard you a year ago. and i have truly enjoyed all that you have done since then. it was my birthday on august 16th and also the same day my dad had heart surgery. he is also a huge fan of yours, and we spend hours listening to you before and after his surgery, he said it helped, and it helped me too... We want to say ‘thank you’ for helping make our lives better with your beautiful voice. bless you." 

That was part of the message & Tim also asked if I could sing Eva Cassidy's version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow hence this cover. This song is for you and your dad, Tim. Thank you and truly, you and all the other people who take the time to listen to my music are one of my biggest inspirations. 

God bless!

Scott Bradlee Plays “City Of Stars“ From La La Land

I used this video: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_mx2Ilo5mQ&feature=related) for accompaniment.  I made a couple of mistakes but it's been a bit difficult trying to perfect this song! :P

Anyway, I hope you all still like it nonetheless. Thank you! <3

Carly Simon launched her solo career in 1971 with her eponymous debut album on Elektra Records that not only spawned the hit "That's the Way I Always Heard It Should Be" but also garnered her the Grammy Award for Best New Artist. She followed with a string of noteworthy albums in the '70s, including Anticipation (with the hit title track), No Secrets (featuring another hit, "You're So Vain"), Hotcakes and Playing Possum. Simon also had a hit single in 1977 with "Nobody Does It Better," a tune she sang for the soundtrack of the James Bond film "The Spy Who Loved Me". She finished the decade with another excellent recording, Boys in the Trees, which won a Grammy Award for Best Album Package.

Throughout the '80s, Simon recorded widely, as a leader (including her first album of standards, Torch), as a soundtrack composer/singer (she won the 1988 Academy Award for Best Song and a Golden Globe Award for "Let the River Run" from the film Working Girl) and as a guest vocalist on various albums with such artists as her-then husband James Taylor, Jesse Colin Young and Nils Lofgren. In addition to her critically acclaimed recordings in the '90s, Simon was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Songwriter's Hall of Fame in 1994 and an Honorary Doctor of Music Degree from Berklee College of Music in 1998. In 2006, Simon's Moonlight Serenade CD was nominated for a Grammy Award in the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album category.
