By Hans Ebert @hanseberthk In the space of two short days, we lost Leonard Cohen and Leon Russell. The curse of 2016 struck again robbing the world of two more extraordinary creative talents just like it’s taken Prince and Bowie and Glenn Frey and so many others from us, and replacing all that wonderful music [...]

By Hans Ebert There’s no other way to put it: We’re all going to die, some before others. And as we face mortality, we start making changes and finalising plans- the obituary, the funeral, how and where you want to lay your weary head, who you want to be beside you, what you want to [...]
THE MAGIC AND THE LOVE OF SHARING MUSIC

By Hans Ebert If every industry used the power of music to attract consumers, there just might be more honesty in the world that will make this a happier place- or, at least, more of a thinking person’s world, and not the vapid moment in time it can often be when one sings, “What’s it [...]
WHERE DID THE MUSIC GO? (AND WHAT’S WITH ALL THESE CHARTS?)
Posted: 25th July 2015 by We-Enhance in Entertainment Industry, Jennifer Lopez, Marketing, Music, Music Industry, Music Marketing, iTunesTags: Apple music, Beach Boys, Ben Semmens, Bruno Mars, CHRIS BROWN, Coldplay, Don Henley, ELLEN DEGENERES, J-Lo, Jefferson Airplane, KATY PERRY, Keith Richard, Monkees, Perez Hilton, Radiohead, Sam Smith, Taylor Swift, the Byrds, Turtles, Vanilla Fudge, YouTube
If it wasn’t just so sad, it would be funny, but as this is written, Chris Brown has been released after being held hostage in the Philippines for three days for “unpaid bills”, there’s some kinda bad blood between Taylor Swift and Katy Perry over a song called, well, “Bad Blood”, there is absolutely way [...]
THE MISSING STEP IN MUSIC APPRECIATION’S TWELVE STEP PROGRAMME
Posted: 11th April 2015 by We-Enhance in Beatles, Music, Music Industry, Music MattersTags: Beatles, Billie Marten, Brian Wilson, Coldplay, Don Henley, Ed Sheeran, Fiona Bevan, George Martin, Gorillaz, Jimmy Webb, John Lennon, Leonard Cohen, Paul MCCARTNEY, Paul Simon, Phil Spector, Ray Davies, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, The Beach Boys, TIN PAN ALLEY, U2
It’s all about the song and thank gawd for a new generation of singer-songwriters- for some reason, mainly female- like the fantastic Fiona Bevan, 15-year-old Billie Marten, Kaya etc- who write intelligent lyrics with all the right hooks to draw you in and keep you happily imprisoned in their songs. These singer-songwriters also understand the [...]
SAD SONGS SAY SO MUCH
Posted: 17th March 2015 by We-Enhance in Beatles, Don Henley, MusicTags: 10cc, Badfinger, Cat Stevens, Don Henley, Fred Neil, GEORGE HARRISON, Glen Campbell, Godly and Creme, Harry Nilsson, JAMES TAYLOR, Jimmy Webb, Leon Russell, Maybe I’m Amazed, Paul MCCARTNEY, Peter Ham, the Byrds, The Heart Of The Matter, THE SUPREMES, Tom Evans
A group of us were discussing and dissecting and coming to grips with the saddest song we’ve heard. It was tough getting to the heart of the matter as what was sad then isn’t sad now. One either stays in a relationship or moves on with memories of what was then, and what is now, [...]
A RETURN TO MUSIC’S STORYTELLERS

When it comes to opening a club, bar or restaurant, it’s location, location, location. In music, its the song, song, song written by storytellers- and being a musical storyteller is something and someone who can never be replaced. Musical stories don’t exactly have to be Shakespeare, either. They can be quite primal, and to the [...]

(Source: Tumblr) I was speaking with a friend the other day about musical appreciation- not in any academic way, but in ways in which many of us first heard a piece of music and for whatever inexplicable reason, it struck a chord with you. (Source: Wattpad) That’s the glory of, that’s the beauty of music. [...]
