I have started a new feature: The Most Awesomest Song of the Day!
Here’s a link to the complete list: https://philmaq.com/most-awesomest-songs/
I want to emphasize mostly, relatively newer music, just like on my Monday night show, “Prime Time Theme Attic.” (Monday nights 8PM-10PM ET when it returns.)
Here’s the link for when that day comes: http://rdo.fm/r/4qntu )
But I can promise this: I will not force my selections. If something doesn’t hit me, I won’t post one.
Everything I do has always been about shining a spotlight on the artist and their music.
Now I will have the potential to shine 365 more spotlights if I want to!

Sarah Morris is one of the best songwriters I know!
Her attention to detail helps her paint a song picture in your mind like very few people can!
Sarah Morris is one of the best performers I will ever see in my lifetime!
She has the best control of her voice and dynamics–from a whisper, to maximum no microphone room volume, without losing any of its nuance! She’s right there with Karen Carpenter and Linda Ronstadt, two performers that I’ve seen live, that had that kind of control!
Sarah reminds me of one of my favorite musicians, Nanci Griffith! These are the highest compliments I can give an artist!
And she does it all while hauling around a guitar case that sometimes seems larger than she is!
Positive vibes radiate from her, and I find it hard to believe that she is ever down!
I have gushed too much, so let’s shift to today’s selection.
Sarah has a brand new album that I had been featuring on my show until the world stopped moving, called, “All Mine.” It shows her evolving musical talent, and it’s still on my weekly Faves list, after holding the #1 spot for a couple of weeks!
I can feature several songs from that album, but in these unfamiliar days where everything seems unreal, I want to reach back to a song from her “Ordinary Things” album.
Enjoying small things in life with someone that makes them seem even better, is truly a joy and a gift, much like Sarah and her song!
We all need more of this in our own lives–pandemic or normal!
If you listen to this song on a dreary day, it will lift your spirits!
If you hear this song on a hopeful, clear day, like today (in Michigan), everything seems, well, brighter!
With a vocal as crystal clear as today’s sky, The Most Awesomest Song of the Day is “Brighter” by Sarah Morris!!! (Woo-hoo!)
