Good Thursday morning, perhaps you may find this just as interesting as I do.  Scotland chose the Unicorn 🦄 as it's national animal. Unicorns have been linked to Scotland for centuries. In Celtic mythology the unicorn was a symbol of purity and innocence, as well as masculinity and power. Tales of dominance and chivalry associated with the unicorn may be why it was chosen as Scotland’s national animal.While the animal is mythological, the ideals it represents are what make it a perfect fit as the national animal for Scotland, and because like this proud beast – Scots would fight to remain unconquered. The unicorn was first used on the Scottish royal coat of arms by William I in the 12th century. In the 15th century, when King James III was in power, gold coins even appeared with the unicorn on them. When Scotland and England unified under the reign of James VI of Scotland in 1603, the Scottish Royal Arms had two unicorns supporting a shield. When James VI became James I of England and Ireland, he replaced the unicorn on the left of the shield with the national animal of England, the lion, to show that the countries were indeed united.

I agree with @AlyssaPandora, she hit the nail on the head with her advice she gave. If you were to read about some of the best singer-songwriters you will see that the songs they write about are mostly from their own personal life experiences. For example, my favorite music artist Jewel Kilcher, she was raised in Alaska on a homestead, she traveled around the state singing with her mom and dad while she was thigh high. She moved around a lot, she hitchhike from Alaska to the lower 48 by herself as a teenager, she also hitchhike to Mexico as well as through Mexico as a teenager, she was homeless for awhile living in a car then a van. But now she is a famous singer-songwriter that has sold nearly 40 million albums worldwide, as well as traveled the world singing. There are many more like Jewel that wrote songs about the struggles they went through growing up, Loretta Lynn who was brought up in extreme poverty, she also wrote songs about her upbringing that won her Grammy Awards. The list is endless.  I wish you the best in your endeavors as a musician and singer-songwriter.       Take care and GOD bless.  ... View more

@SuzettaOT7 nicely stated. I agree, streaming is here to stay. Technology only keeps improving, and with that it opens the doors for more opportunities for music artists to become popular much quicker. Today a new song can come out and by tomorrow it reaches the other side of the world. There was a time when that would have taken months to achieve, or even a year or more.  Take care and GOD bless.  ... View more

Good Friday morning, and welcome to GSOTD. I will be adding three songs to today's post and Playlist. The first two songs are by the same artist David Kushner, he only has 12 songs in Pandora's library, but I think you'll agree the two songs are not just worth listening to but collecting for your own personal Playlist as well. Enjoy the music.  Pop/Singer-songwriter: Daylight  by David Kushner. "Daylight" is a song by American singer-songwriter David Kushner. Kushner wrote the song with Hayden Robert Hubers, Jeremy Fedryk, and Josh Bruce Williams. The song was released back on April 14th of this year.  Pop/Singer-songwriter: Burn by David Kushner. In an interview with Unpublished David states My song “Burn” is actually about my girlfriend's ex, so like lowkey a diss track. Okay. He was like a diagnosed narcissist and that caused a lot of issues in their relationship. I basically internalized my girlfriend’s experience with her ex in that one. Alternative/Indie/Pop/Electropop: Never Felt So Alone  by Labrinth. "Never Felt So Alone" is a song by British singer-songwriter Labrinth which features uncredited vocals from American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish.

Good Thursday morning, I will be adding three songs to the GSOTD post and Playlist. Enjoy the music.  Reggae: The Happy Song by Yaksta. Kemaul M. Martin, professionally known as Yaksta, is an upcoming reggae and dancehall recording artist and songwriter from St. Mary, Jamaica. Growing up under the care of his single mother and sisters in an area categorized by many as a “ghetto” or “garrison”, life has never been easy for Yaksta. Rather than succumb to a life of violence and crime – the fate of many of his peers, Yaksta followed his passion for music. His drive to perform on the global stage has been admired by many. From his early childhood, he spent his formative years working on music projects and focused on reggae and dancehall culture as opposed to his studies. After several stints in hospitality at popular Jamaican beach resorts and running his own business selling clothes as a way to make ends meet, Yaksta decided a full-time life in music was the only path for him. “I am music incarnate and I’ve given up on avoiding my destiny”, he vows enthusiastically. Pop: Die A Happy Man by Nelly. The song was co-written by Country singer Thomas Rhett it was released on September 28th, 2015. "Die A Happy Man" was covered by American Rapper artist Nelly in 2016 and released as a single on February 5th by Records and Epic Records. Nelly's version draws interest from hip-hop and dance music. Country: When I'm With You by Chris Stapelton. In the album Starting Over Chris states. "There’s a lot on this record that I’m finding out, as I’m starting to talk about it a bit, was very reactionary and in the moment. On previous records, there was songwriting that probably took place in a working songwriter vacuum, that sat around for several years and found a purpose when it was time to make a record. This project is much more about my current day-to-day life." When I'm With You is the fourth song on Chris's album Starting Over. Have a great Thursday, take care, and GOD bless.  ... View more
