MEIKO: LEAVE THE LIGHTS ON (ACOUSTIC)

I'm a huge fan of MEIKO and im glad that she's back with a new album called BRIGHT LIGHTS. The carrier single "Leave The Lights On", is catchy as hell and easy to sing along with. She's really an amazing artist!! Give her a guitar and a stage and she'll captivate you with a performance that is so real and pure that you'll feel it, deep...emotionally.

In focus: JOSHUA RADIN

Singer-songwriter JOSHUA RADIN is not your mainstream type of artist. But with his ability to make simplicity beautiful is carried out in every song he wrote and sing.

Take for example in the song SKY- a cut from his 2008 album SIMPLE TIMES, his whispery vocal style allows him to blend well with the voice of another favorite indie artist MEIKO. The simple melody seems to have been written in a better time for Radin as a stream of positivity runs through its entirety.

I woke dreaming we had broke
Dreaming you left me for someone new
And you cried, drying those brown eyes
Crying you're sorry - sorry won't do

But this is the way I need to wake
I wake to you
And you never left me
All that I dreamt had been untrue
Open my eyes
I see sky

Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say you'll stay forever mine
'Til we fall asleep tonight

Last night, we had a great fight
I fell asleep in a horrible state
Then dreamt that you loved my best friend
My heart would not mend - seemed it was fate

But this is the way I need to wake
I wake to you
And you never left me
All that I dreamt had been untrue
Open my eyes
I see sky

Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say you'll stay forever mine
'Til we fall asleep tonight

Sometimes I forget to love you like I should
But I'd never leave you - no, I never would
I never would

Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say you'll stay forever mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say you'll stay forever mine
'Til we fall asleep tonight
'Til we fall asleep tonight

Akuztik Pick: MEIKO

Kumusta mga marekoy!...Gusto kong ishare sa inyo ang isa sa paborito kong female artists ngaun. Si MEIKO.

I discovered Meiko's music in such US hit shows like "Grey's Anatomy" and "One Tree Hill". Mula nun tuluyan na 'kong nahook sa angelic husky voice niya and catchy acoustic tune.

Born and raised in Roberta, Georgia and now resides in Los Angeles, California. She create big waves in 2007 when her self titled debut album released and become a charttopper in iTunes. And take note that she did that without the help of any major record label but still her songs downloaded about 200,000 times in iTunes.


Meiko repeat that success with the 2008 album that produces the brand new hit single, "Boys with girlfriends". The title track topped the iTunes chart and the album become the best selling CD on Amazon.com

So far napakaunderrated pa rin ni Meiko. Compared to some mainstream female artists, mas di hamak na mas magaling siya as a singer/songwriter. It's t0o bad that hindi available ang mga CD's niya dito sa Pinas. But you can listen to her music here for you to find out how talented she is.
Here's some sample of Meiko's fine acoustic sound:
