In Which we have many years in a week: Morning in Brazil, too?

Good morning, most kind and dear friend, reader of this present post, too! How are you? This is a post I have been trying to write since this Tuesday or so... and it has been quite hard to think on what to develop into a more substancial thought. There is a lot that I would like to talk, and I was terrified of starting a post, only to delete it and leave it at that, it happened time and again, and it destroys me for the moment. I don't know why such a strong repulsion against starting a thought and not knowing how to end, not finding a good way to conclude. Perhaps it is fear of fatigue. Or of being mistreated. But I do have an ongoing trend that I perceive, I really, really wanted to mention it. I did start the year a bit annoyed with the 2016 nostalgia, and on that line, I said that it was more of a 1989 year than 2016. I said it due to the capture of Maduro, the (ongoing) second Iranian Revolution and war, the immense losses the left suffered across latin America, that brought s...

Album of the month! In which we talk about the Superb Christmas Record by Hannah Huston!

And here I am again! With the album of the month! But for the ones dropping by right now: hello to you! And welcome! Wonderful to have you here and I wish you the best!
So, going back to the album of the month, today I listened to the new christmas album by an artist I've been a fan and been following since 2016, Hannah Huston, that I first heard of on the 10th season of The Voice. It is simply SUPERB! I'll just go ahead and share the link to it right now and then talk about it, so you guys will have an idea of what I'm talking about...


First of all, the title of the album is really wonderful, and it delivers what it says: Believe in Christmas. Believe on this wonderful holiday, on the magic of it. After listening to the superb voice of Hannah, so hard to define because it is just so spetacular, please believe me, it is spetacular, it is hard not to believe in it. Featuring many known christmas songs, she brings her immense personality to it with blues, jazz, soul, that even evocates the name of another wonderful soul artist that I met on The Voice: Michael Sanchez. After listening to that, and knowing the similar background of Michael and that he also has work on Christmas, I wonder how spetacular it would be for them to have a song together, that would shatter earth, that is for sure! But coming back to Christmas and Hannah, this is indeed an album that caught my attention way too much, going beyond Christmas even, it's quality work for its diverse rhythms, for the hard to believe voice of Hannah, her great approach to classics of the season, truly some album that has the power of improving days. This is indeed quality work, and I couldn't recommend it enough for you guys! If you guys want, go give it a listen and I think there's a good chance you won't regret!
And for today this is it! Thank you so much for being here! Wish you the best and happy December for you!
