"Take a Holiday" starts with a slide guitar that draws you in like rays of sunshine. The inviting and warm sound to Jay Elle's "Take a Holiday" is just the beginning. After the slide guitar welcomes you in, the door opens to a full island-pop groove that sounds like a breath of fresh tropical air. Not since Jimmy Buffet has a song about unwinding and leaving your cares behind felt this good to the ears.
"Need a break to clear up my mind. Need a break from the daily grind. Sipping cocktails by the pool, while the rest of the world acts a fool."

When a song makes you forget about time, when it takes you away from life's worries and troubles, and brings you to a place that literally relaxes the muscles in your body, eases your mind from the daily grind, and makes you smile - that is more than a good pop song or a great melody - that is art because it takes an artist to compose music that takes you away to a better place and kindles your imagination.
