Song of the Day: The Story

boomp3.com

Today's song of the day comes from last night's wedding of the season.(see Thug Wedding post immediately below this one) It's "The Story", by Brandi Carlile. For the life of us, nobody at the table could come up with the artists name last night, though six of the ten of us (the couples in their 30s) knew the song.

An excellent choice. Similar to the rest of the wedding, it was a nontraditional choice, but suitable in every way.

I love the way this song is sung. There's tons of emotion by her, to the point that her voice cracking at one point near the end is a positive emphasis.

Lyrics for the song are here. Well worth looking at.
Artist information here. If you're a Grey's Anatomy fan you might recognize the voice. The wiki page cited says this and three of her other songs have been featured on the show.
