When I grow up, I wanna be just like Aloe Blacc. Seriously, I’m pretty sure there’s not a cooler cat in music right now. The guy can sing, dance and dress – pretty much the opposite of me.
Not to mention, he writes ridiculously uplifting tunes. Go ahead and try to be in a bad mood after watching this new video for the song Green Lights, which comes off his excellent 2010 sophomore album Good Things.

Yes, that mother song from his last album where she dies….totally uplifting
Totally redeemed by “You Make Me Smile” among others…it’s not the lyrical sentiment as it is the nu-soul (or whatever it’s called) musical groove that makes you want to dance and forget your problems. Also totally rules live – saw him at Sasquatch and he was a highlight.
“as much” should have been included…blog commentary needs an editor…sigh.
