Year 4, Day 336

Hey guys. Today I give you American Hearts by Shawn James.


I know I've talked about this video before when I first found it since I loved it so much, but it deserves its own post. This time though I think I should probably talk about the guy who actually sings this song, as this one is just a cover. So this song is originally performed by A. A. Bondy (Auguste Arthur Bondy). He used to play guitar and sing in a band called Verbena in the 90's and went solo after they broke up. He released his first solo album which was called American Hearts which debuted his switch from rock to folk. This is the original version of the song. I prefer the cover myself, but without Bondy there would never even be a cover so we've got to respect that. The cover was filmed in a wolf sanctuary to bring to light what they do and raise funds to help take care of the animals so I'm going to leave you with a link to the wolf sanctuary's website.

Peace.
