Looking for music recommendations…
Edited on Mon Feb-21-05 08:21 PM by The Whiskey Priest
There is a song on the sound track from the movie One Fine Day that knocks me back…the singer is Natalie Merchant…the song is One Fine Day…you can find a sample of the song on Amazon…..she is backed by a saxophone and piano… it has that sound that causes you to start thinking of a smoky bars and amber liquid over ice.

If you would give a listen, then recommend similar songs, artist and sounds in that style. I know it’s a bunch to ask, so I will say thanks ahead of time to all that respond

2. I love that version
While it's not similar in style, I do find Portishead's Glory Box to be a great 'smoky bar' song.

3. Completely different genre....
but Loreena McKennitt's music has a sexy, sinuous sound to it...if you like Celtic music. And I do... :)

4. Check out this site

Fun place to find bands with a sound similar to bands you know you like.
