Weekend Reprise Music

We're closing the week of the Democratic National Convention with a reprise of two songs featured during the event that we think did a pretty good job of defining the feel of the convention:  Bruce Springsteen's "The Rising" and Billie Eilish premiering "My Future."  Hope you enjoy (again)!

The Unconventional Convention -- Day 3

ICYMI last night featured speeches by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Hillary Clinton, Sen. Kamala Harris, and former President Barack Obama, a slew of videos on progressive issues -- and a message and musical performance by Billie Eilish.











Great night laying out the case for voting COVID Donnie out and for Democratic governance.

Weekend Party's Over Music

The just- turned- 18 phenomenon known as Billie Eilish (full name Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O'Connell) is already an accomplished songwriter/ singer with record- breaking and genre- shattering awards piling up.  She released her first full- length album, "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?" in 2019, and it contains a song written by her talented brother Finneas O'Connell (who also produced the album and accompanies her on piano), "When The Party's Over."  Here's a beautiful live version of the song:



As a bonus, if you haven't already seen it, check out Billie's very charming Carpool Karaoke with James Corden to see what a relatively grounded life she has living in her childhood home.  If you're not a fan, this should make you one.  (Plus, who wouldn't love someone with "Pirate" as part of their name?)
