Josephine (Pick Word #21)


Josephine is a female given name, which is the feminine form of the male name Joseph from the Holy Bible. It is also known as the English version of the French name. Josephine was the name of Napoleon Bonaparte and other princesses or queens in Europe. I found myself wondering about this name after listening to Magnolia Electric Co's last album Josephine (2009), after it was announced that the leading singer of that group Jason Molina has died. So here are five beautiful songs I've found about that name by: Reamonn, The Wallflowers, The Magnetic Fields, Josh Woodward and Magnolia Electric Co. of course....


The Wallflowers - Josephine (Taken From Bringing Down The Horse, 1996)

 
The Magnetic Fields - Josephine (Taken From Distant Plastic Trees, 1991)
 
Magnolia Electric Co. - Josephine (Taken From Josephine, 2009)
 
Reamonn - Josephine (Taken From Tuesday, 2000)
Josh Woodward - I'll Be Right Behind You, Josephine (Taken From Only Whispering, 2006)

Jason Molina


It's still hard for me to accept the fact that Jason Molina is dead. One of the favourite voices of mine has been announced dead due too alcohol abuse only few hours ago, leaving me no chance to see him performing. Jason Molina was a musical vagabond moving from one musical act to another. Starting with Songs: Ohia (1997-2003), then under his own name (2004-2005) until he named his last band Magnolia Electric Co. after one of his Songs: Ohia albums. I think it would take a while until people will recognise his beautiful lyrics and warm voice, meanwhile I hope he'll rest in peace up there in paradise, leaving us some divine songs for moments of pain and disappointment. Here are five songs for his memory, RIP Jason Molina

Songs: Ohia - Come Back To Your Man (Taken From Axxess & Ace, 1999)

Jason Molina - Shore To Shore (Taken From Autumn Bird Songs, 2012)
Songs: Ohia - This Time Anything Is Finite At All (Taken From Impala, 1999)
Songs: Ohia - Being In Love (Taken From Lioness, 1999)

Magnolia Electric Co. - The Handling Down (Taken From Josephine, 2009)
