Jeff Buckley’s “Corpus Christi Carol” works perfectly as a cool down with its quiet music and colossal falsetto vocal work by my favorite vocalist of all time. This is actually the first song by Jeff Buckley I ever heard. Seriously consider this one!

Build a Workout Mix: Successful Mix 9
If you’re not sure what this is about, start by heading HERE and reading the introduction to this section of my blog.
This mix is a reworking of Successful Mix 8 which you can read about HERE
First, the tracklist:
1. Demon God – Joe Hisaishi
2. Angel of Salvation – Galneryus
3. Corpus Christi Carol – Jeff Buckley
4. 24 – Jem
5. Dynomite – Ima Robot
6. Farewell to Cheyenne – Ennio Morricone
This mix, like the last one is really focusing around my new additional song type:Â The Monster. That track here is “Angel of Salvation” which I kept in the mix since it worked so well. Instead I basically changed around all the rest of the tracks.
I started things off with Joe Hisaishi’s “Demon God” from the film Princess Mononoke. Unfortunately the song was pulled off of youtube so I dont have the link. I think the song worked ok as a warm up. A bit slow on the build and it never gets quite fast enough but it does the job. I think it works better if you’ve seen the film.
Next come the monster “Angel of Salvation” which worked just as well as last time.
I followed this up with another cool down just like last time since “Angel of Salvation” is basically a 14 minute burn out. Jeff Buckley’s “Corpus Christi Carol” works perfectly as a cool down with its quiet music and colossal falsetto vocal work by my favorite vocalist of all time. This is actually the first song by Jeff Buckley I ever heard. Seriously consider this one!
There is just something about the strings in “24” that scream: GET READY FOR BATTLE! “24” served as an excellent warm up as instruments are continually added until you reach the bouncy chorus and you body goes into full on power mode.
I chose “Dynomite” for my burnout because I wanted something that only lasted a few minutes. The song has this really wild nature to it and it just gets crazier the longer it goes on. I dont think its a burn out for everyone but it will definitely serve if youre in the right mood.
Ennio Morricone for a cool down. Seriously what more needs to be said?
Not my best run for sure but nothing really fell apart either so I’m still naming it a success.

Song of the Day 12/31/10: Jeff Buckley – Grace
SO to get into all that is Jeff Buckley would take book after book, and I wont attempt it here. Â What I will say is that he died way too young. Â After releasing only one album and recording a second, he tragically drowned in a river in 1997. Â However, the one album he did release before his death is one of the most beautiful pieces of music available. Â I first discovered him while rooming with my friend, Henn, in Fresh Meadows, NY. Â I came home after an exceptionally bad day at school and work, and just went and lied down in my room, frustrated, and in that insomniac not awake not alseep place. Â Henn was doing something in the kitchen and blasting “Grace”, and I just lay there listening to the entire album. Â I had no idea who it was but I was in love. Â “Grace”, to me, is a song that represents everything that Jeff was about, from the crazy guitar work and the soothing dark lyrics, to the absolutely wonderful vocals. Â My friend, Jacek, once asked me who my favorite vocalist was and I said, “it has to be Jeff on that last solo on Grace.” Â I highly encourage you to watch the documentary made about him, or at least go find Grace and listen to it.
