Sing, Sing a Song Saturday

I started doing what I call Sing, Sing a Song Saturday.  I'm going to post one song on Saturdays that the boys or I like. 

The song may be part of a movie, a kid's video or just a song we like. It may or may not include words. I'll try and include why we like it and/or the history of the song/singer.

The group I'm featuring this week is called Soap&Skin. They are a Austria band. The lead singer, Anja Franziska Plaschg grew up in a small village called Poppendorf (near Gnas) in south east Styria. There they have a farm. She went to school for graphic design and dropped out at 16. She has played piano since she was six. At the age of 14 she began violin studies and developed an interest in electronic music. She started performing on a small scale, which later got bigger.

Her first album also achieved chart positions in Germany, Belgium and France. Music journalists have already claimed to see in her a new star of Austrian pop.
