Happy New Year - Thirty for Thursday Volume 16

back for 2012 and I'm already almost missing my Thursday deadline...jeez....
It's here though, thankfully I started this on Monday and just finished now while getting ideas on the way home.

So this one started because I realized how the intros of the first 2 songs sounded remarkably alike. I haven't shared much Hawaiian stuff so far since I wasn't sure if some of my newer friends would dig it, but it seems right this week...mostly because Frank Orrall shared a Penguin Cafe Orchestra song and I found another one on the album that I dug. I kept the ukulele thing for a minute, but then didn't want to kill you with it.

Here's the player



and you can download it here (right click)

1. Paul Simon - Loves Me Like A Rock
2. The Brothers Cazimero - Ho'okipa Hawaii
3. Penguin Cafe Orchestra - The Ecstacy of the Dancing Fleas
4. Ingrid Michaelson - Be O.K. (more ukulele and she is just so damned sexy)
5. Ka'au Crater Boys - Noho Pai Pai (you can't say ukulele and not have the boys on here...LOVE this jam)
6. Smokey Robinson & Darryl Hall - Being With You (live from Darryl's house) - thanks to XL for recommending this show
7. Coldplay & The Buena Vista Social Club - Clocks
8. Cesaria Evora - Isolada (so sad to hear of her passing)
