New Single from Marty Brown: “I’m Gonna Make It Fly”

Country singer and America’s Got Talent alum Marty Brown has been busy with a number of projects. He and his wife Shellie were recently Grand Marshalls at the Bowling Green Kentucky Jaycees Christmas Parade. He is also preparing for a television taping on December 20 at the Goodnight Auditorium in Franklin, Kentucky (See his Facebook page for more details). And he just released a new single, “I’m Gonna Make It Fly.”

Regarding the upbeat new song, you may hear an excerpt of the song below. The song begins with a kid preparing his wagon to fly, followed by a story about young lovers. What they all have in common is that they all wanna “make it fly.” The end of the song features a twist ending. You will have to track down the full single for the full story.

“I’m Gonna Make It Fly” is available through iTunes.

    space exploration
    Erik Wernquist, a digital artist and animator from Sweden, has created a stunning video showing the future of space exploration called Wanderers. The video depicts real places in our Solar System, using digital effects to create what they might look like.

    Take the tour, using narration from the late Carl Sagan, to see what future generations might get to see for real.

    The Carl Sagan narration is taking from the astronomer’s reading of his book, Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space (1994). Wernquist explains that his non-profit production of the video is designed “to enlighten and inspire.”

    Springsteen and Martin Front U2 for World Aids Day

    With Bono recovering from a bicycle accident, Bruce Springsteen and Coldplay’s Chris Martin filled in for the U2 lead singer at a performance for World AIDS Day on December 1. The performance, in Times Square in New York City, included Springsteen singing “Where the Streets Have No Name” and “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For.”

    Coldplay is often compared to U2 for various reasons, so another natural choice for a Bono fill-in was Chris Martin. Check out Martin sang “Beautiful Day” and “With or Without You.” [Update: Unfortunately, videos of these performances are no longer available as of 2024.]

    Nobody can match Bono on these songs, but Springsteen and Martin do a great job, with Springsteen adding a rough edge while Martin most closely matches Bono’s voice. We wish Bono a quick recovery and are thankful that these superstars filled in for a good cause.

    Wes Anderson’s “Bottle Rocket”: The Short Film Version

    Wes Anderson short
    In 1994, writer-director Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson produced their first short film together. The black and white short, Bottle Rocket, would later provide the basis for the 1996 feature film of the same name, which also starred Owen and his brother Luke Wilson.

    As The Playlist recently noted, it is interesting to watch the entertaining short film and recognize the absence of many of the trademark techniques that would later populate Anderson’s films. For now, you may watch the entire short film Bottle Rocket below.
