Light the Night PLUS Song O the Day - Part ONE

So Light the Night is a great benefit and they have now raised over $300,000 for research.  You can go online and check out the full line up that performed last night and donate some cash to this great cause here, a BIG thanks to the biggest witch in Sydney Marcus for a little ticket to the show in my preferred row of seating, 5 rows from the front and in the centre.

I must say my highlight and the vocally strong performer was Tom Sharah, what a voice and his efforts on "I Will Survive" will conclude tonight in front of what I can only imagine is going to be a rather small audience.

Okay so in the search for the year's best 101 songs which I will publish on Boxing Day, I have found well I have a HUGE list to go through so to help me I am going to each day until Boxing Day BLOG about one epic song of the year which may make my list.

So some of those songs might not make my 101 BEST of 2012 but here is one I think will, his album Channel Orange is oh so sublime, it's Frank Ocean and for Day One, let's head to the Pyramids:



It's an EPIC 9 minute wonder from the album "Channel Orange", this tune was released on the 7th of June 2012 and has since rocked my world BIG time.

I love Frank's album and there is no doubt he might get another tune on the list pre my BIG ass countdown on Boxing Day.  So please give the song a listen and let me know what you think of this epic rnb masterpiece.
