I Fell in Love: with The Vitamin String Quartet

I’m not your opera-junkie.  I’m a self-confessed alternative music lover–my iPod overflows with music most people have never heard before. It’s full of unsigned artists and their songs.  But recently, I explored this iPod that was left playing and connected to the speakers at work–funny thing is, I never asked permission to check out the songs! lol.

Anyway, fast forward: another guy from work asked me to look for “Here Without You” by The Vitamin String Quartet.  As usual, I myself was again lost and clueless of what he told me to look for, just searched and played the song.  And i was instantly hooked! Mesmerized! Caught in a trance! (Oh well, enough with the melodrama.)

There were loads of songs that the group had turned into dramatic, more intense sounds, well of course–minus the vocals!  There’s “Broken” by Evanescence, “Chasing Cars” by Snow Patrol, “Pressure” by Paramore, “Snow” by Red Hot Chili Peppers, “Welcome to the Black Parade” by My Chemical Romance and a lot, lot more!  Each one different, but every track was ever-brilliant!

Here’s a video of my personal favorite: (Sorry I couldn’t find a better video, we’re after the song anyway, right? )
