Degrassi 1004

Breakaway, Pt. 2
Original Air Date: July 22, 2010

Save Yourself by Mark Feldman
We didn’t know it, but it turns out Mark is from Toronto – though the song was pitched by an American company.  From far and wide, eh?  We had our thumb on this song for a while.

All That I Know by Zach Berkman
Though we like to give a wide variety of artists to the audience, we had to plug in another Zach Berkman song – he was just such a good fit for Degrassi.  Lyrically, the song is beautiful, and his vocals justify another feature for him.

Don't Pass Me By by Scout
The unstoppable writing partners known as Scout have done it again – another great fit in the Degrassi world.  I love the everyman theme of this song.

Afie Jurvanen – AKA Bahamas – usually rocks out at his shows – so you’ll seldom find him performing Sunshine Blues, albeit I do believe it’s one of the best compositions by a Canadian in a while.  Go look it up, read the lyrics, interpret it how you’d like.  To me, it’s about the eternal longing the sun has for his true love, the moon.
