Sonny Rollins: #1 Top 10 Hot Searches (12/27/11)

I have to admit, when I saw the Top 10 Hot Searches list today, and the number one is Sonny Rollins, I was like who da? So I googled him, and am I glad I did. He is very well known, but for those of you who are as clueless as I am, Sonny Rollins is an 81-year-old legendary Grammy Award-winning American jazz tenor saxophonist. My guess why he was the top search of the day today is because he received 34th Annual Kennedy Center Honors, which the ceremony was broadcasted today. President Bill Clinton is a huge fan and presented Sonny Rollins with the honor.

I must say I don’t really get jazz and was a bit reluctant to listen to his work, but couldn’t resist the curiosity. So I youtubed “Brown Skin Girl”, one of Clinton’s favorites. One word, Timeless. Give it a listen! Can you believe this came out of an 81-year-old’s horn?

Best Video of 2011

With Christmas coming to a close, and New Year is fast approaching, the internet is bombarded with lists of 2011. To me, the one list that has a hands down winner is the best video of 2011 list. It has got to be the talking twins. Watch and you be the judge if their conversation is just not the most intriguing of the year!
