Peace Out
May 16th, 2008

Another week, hopefully full of positive change. Time to crank up your speakers, and enjoy yourself with our new Friday “music that inspires us” feature. We are going to start off with Peter Gabriel, because he was a founder of The Elders, and was recently named as one of TIME’s “100 Most Influential People In the World.” And, appropriately enough, we are going to go with Gabriel and Kate Bush singing “Don’t Give Up.”

And now, our awesome intern Kate (principal author of our Morning News Roundup) will take us out with a “kind of abstract” selection from a band called Sigur Ros. It’s called Glosoli, and you won’t understand a word even if you happen to speak Icelandic because, according to Kate, the song is sung in a language made up by Sigur Ros called “Hopelandic” (we should all be speaking Hopelandic, shouldn’t we?). Kate urges you to watch the whole thing:”The ending is one of the most amazing scenes I’ve seen in a music video.” And she’s right.

Send us your favorites, and we’ll feature them, too. Have a good weekend.
