This week, once more in my quest to keep up with pop culture, my music homework from the billboard charts:GreeceLost on You by LPVerdict: I actually liked it a lot. It's a bit odd to have an English language song as #1 in Greece, but the beat and tempo of the song is very right for Greece.RussiaSub Pielea Mea | #eroina by Carla's DreamVerdict: It's a little odd to have a song in Portuguese

This week, my music homework from the billboard chartsUSAOne Dance by Drake feat. WizKid and KylaVerdict: M...eh. It's OK as background music, but not really to my taste for music. Too "sleepy" and dream sequence. AustriaThe sound of Silence by DisturbedVerdict: I like the visual of the music video, but this song is way to melancholy for me. KoreaNot spring, love, or cherry blossoms (봄,사랑,벚꽃

In my quest to stay current with music, world music, I am looking at top 40 from around the world and randomly picking songs to sample.From the Italian Charts: Maître Gims - Est-ce que tu m'aimes ?Verdict: not bad. Don't quite get the French (need the lyrics to get acclimated to sung French). I'd listen to this again.From the US charts: Drake - One Dance (feat. Wizkid & Kyla)Verdict:

I think to start my #musicrewind tag I'll go with the theme of KPOP. Back when I was working for Media Services (1999ish) many of my co-workers (and later employees) were Vietnamese.

I fell like I don't listen to a ton of new music lately - so I think every Friday I will look for something that's been released in the last couple of years and expand my music horizons...

Music Friday! This week's pick (reminiscing) is The Tamperer feat. Maya - If You Buy This Record Your Life Will Be Better. I think that this was the first Tamperer song that I head that summer I returned to Greece after a long hiatus :-)

It's been a while since I've posted something music related. I came across this song "Free.mp3" (aka the pirate bay song) by Dubioza Kolektiv. Pretty entertaining, and quite catchy. You can also download it for free here: http://dubioza.org/albums/happy-machine/
