My Brightest Diamond - The Gentlest Gentleman [Live]

     Inspiration at it's finest. A friend of mine by the name of Hillary Barthe sent this song to me in an e-mail earlier this week. I have listened to the track about 20 times since I first opened the message. The flawless, soothing, and simply charming melodies and lyrics by singer songwriter Shara Borden--- have jumped to second place on my current favorite female vocalist list. Leslie Feist (my song of choice), has taken up residence in first for about three or four years now. Just below Shara is Carla Bruni (my song of choice), in third. If you are in the mood to be dazed and dazzled, give each of them a listen! There are many truly great male artists out there, however I don't think there is anything as lovely and delicate as the female voice. Here are some others to give a listen to:

Christiane Legrand, Beach House- Norway

Jenn Grant- Everybody Loves You

Alela Daine- The Rifle
