Thank You Burberry

Last week was the first time I had James Blake enchant my ears with his massively popular song, Limit To Your Love (single available on itunes for a well worth it £1.49, or catch the video on this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOT2-OTebx0 ). It was as if all members of The XX and a male version of Lykke Li had made a beautiful love child with a magical voice, providing the world with an interesting and provoking sound. Coincidentally, whilst flicking through my Sunday Style Magazine at the weekend, I noticed they had commented that 'There's no limit to our love for your new album'.  After putting two and two together, I thought, yes, fashion magazine, your slightly hot on your tunes.

My initial investigatory skills 

Investigating further, I dug out the issue from the week before, and re-read it to find another musical recommendation, Misty Miller, (follow this link to pursue her audiable art http://www.myspace.com/mistymillermusic ) 'The velvet-voiced, ukulele-playing 16-year-old, bigged up by Burberry. Two melty albums on the way'. Feeling comfortable in the arms of The Sunday Times Style magazines' taste in music, I youtubed this little nymph and was pleasantly surprised at uncovering a whole series of Burberry, promoting various acoustic musicians and bands! I have probably just been living under a rock, but at my discovery, I couldn't help but jump around and feel happy! Here are a few video links, handpicked by me as some of my favourite Burberry Acousitcs...
