Music You Might Like - Chris Isaak - Otto's blog

To celebrate my graduation, here`s a song called `Graduation Day` by one of my all-time favourite musicians, Chris Isaak: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJBH8uu5qIM

This guy has written so many good songs. This is his most famous song, and my favourite, `Wicked Game`: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAOxCqSxRD0

Those songs are a bit depressing, but this one, `Can`t Do a Thing` is nice & relaxing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7e8wjdugnNw

I also really like `Lie to Me`: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GkYXDw-dzY

Not only is Chris Isaak handsome, charming, & talented, he can also speak Japanese! Really! Check out this song, `So Lovely is the Night`, sung in Japanese: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JxZaRb_XnQ

I haven`t been to many concerts in my life, but I saw Chris Isaak & his band play at Hard Rock Cafe in Bangkok about 15 years ago. I was standing by the bar just 10 metres from the stage. During their performance, suddenly the saxophone player came to the bar, climbed up on the counter & started walking along it, while playing the saxophone. Me & other drinkers had to quickly move our drinks! Then Chris Isaak followed him, playing his guitar! Actually, his guitar was electric, & he had to unplug it to go to the bar, so he wasn`t really playing it. But it was still a great performance! Afterwards he signed autographs & I got him to sign my entry ticket. I still have it somewhere.

What a great night. What a great guy!
