    So one of my favorite acapella groups, Naturally 7, and a group I didn't know of before this, the Maccabeats, did this absolutely incredible cover of James Taylor's "Shed A Little Light", Taylor's tribute to Martin Luther King. James himself said that it is one of the best covers he's ever heard.

    The message is awesome, and the fact that the Maccabeats, who are all devoutly obervant Orthodox Jews that generally only record music that promotes their faith, chose to work with Naturally 7 on this is just awesome, and sends a positive and healing message at a time of division and fear.

    And... it's simply voices (with a bit of processing), but nothing else. Simply beautiful.
