Songs That Otherwise Might Pass You By

Jihae

These are some great songs. She reminds me of Rachel Yamagata...soulful, emotional, etc. The video for "Pink Sands" is different, but the song is exceptional.

Roman Candle, "Eden Was a Garden" (Artist gave me permission to post the mp3)

I played this on my podcast two weeks ago, but the artist just gave me permission to post the mp3, so I figured I'd put it on here. It's a really good song.
