Song of the Day
Today’s Song of the Day is from Julieta Venegas – Casa Abandonada (Abandoned House). From 2000’s Bueninvento, I found this record on a list of top 10 Latin rock records from Rolling Stone magazine. Here, Venegas is a alternative rocker, before she moved more main stream later in her career, to great success. Below are two versions of this song – the first is a live version from 2009, where she accompanies herself only on piano – she makes some mistakes, but personally I like this version better than that on her album, where she plays the accordion, instead of the piano. Either way, a great alternative song. She hails from Mexico.
