Was in my allergist’s office waiting to get my monthly allergy shots (yeah, but it helps me survive living in this valley…) and I found a copy of Guitar Player on one of the side tables.  The subscription tag was cut out so I had no idea who in the office might be a guitarContinue reading “365 Day Project-Day 37-Who Wouldn’t Wanna Be Me”

I may be the only person I know who hasn’t seen Frozen.  Yeah, I know… another one.  But, I just found out it’s still showing in theaters, so there’s still a chance…  This song was nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Song.  I love Idina Menzel!  

I finally watched Hunger Games: Catching Fire.  I know.  Took me long enough.  Happily surprised it was still showing in a local theater.  I heard this song during the credits.  Gotta love Coldplay…   

Chevrolet had a commercial on Sunday’s Super Bowl which paid tribute to cancer survivors and had this beautifully haunting song.  The commercial pointed you to a promotional that said they would contribute $1 to the American Cancer Society for every purple profile of Facebook and Twitter, up to $1M.  Tomorrow, Tuesday, February 4, is WorldContinue reading “365 Day Project-Day 34-Don’t Leave”

Sorry, let the day slip away from me and I’ve only minutes to post.  I said earlier in the week that I may post this… and here it is… the Grammy version.  

I mentioned earlier that I’d bought a Roku box and then gotten rid of my cable.  I subscribed to Netflix and Hulu Plus and have been enjoying watching quite a variety of shows… mostly British detective series.  I’ve managed to watch most of Whitechapel and Luther.  Ok, so maybe I was watching Rupert Penry-Jones andContinue reading “365 Day Project-Day 30-Flower Duet (Lakme)”

Discovered someone new (for me) tonight, Jeremy Messersmith.   He will be releasing a new album Heart Murmurs, on February 4.  It will be his FIFTH album!  Why haven’t I heard him before??  He’s really good.  Need to go listen to his other albums now… You can listen to the new album streaming on NPR.  IContinue reading “365 Day Project-Day 29-It’s Only Dancing”

Found this while looking around for something new.  I think I need to listen to Allen Stone a bit more…
