We lost another legend today.  I remember, as a child, regularly watching the Andy Williams Show and the Andy William specials.  They provided “safe” entertainment for a child during the early rumblings of the rock era.  I mean, seriously, that’s where the Osmond Brothers started out.  When I found out that he had passed, IContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 270-Music To Watch Girls Go By”

It’s here!!!  Mumford & Son’s newest album, Babel, released today and I’m so excited to hear the entire album.  I was sorely grieved to find that I missed them on SNL this past weekend, but am here able to share the video of one of their songs from the night.  I’m also sharing another versionContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 269-Below My Feet”

Heard this on the radio today, checked my playlist and realized I hadn’t posted it yet.  It’s a catchy tune and the video is rather interesting…  

My church, Redeemer, is starting a new series of messages, entitled Life in the Spirit.  A couple of weeks ago, Steve McCoy posted this hymn to the Holy Spirit in his series of posts on George Whitefield.  This hymn is found in Whitefield’s collection of hymns for Social Worship.  I think it all timely.  AfterContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 267-Come Holy Ghost Our Souls Inspire”

The boys have gone home.  My house needs cleaning.  Who would think that such small creatures could make such big messes.  I’ll get to it tomorrow.  In the meantime, here’s some more Avett Brothers and I am now on track again.  

Ok, so here’s what happened…  The grandbabies visited this weekend!  That’s always a lovely thing, but, the room they stay in when they visit doubles as my office.  My desktop computer is located there and being the newer computer,  I tend to use it for most of my work searching for songs and writing myContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 265-Don’t You Worry Child”

Not sure why I’m in a Chicago kind of mood, but then again, why wouldn’t I be…?  Maybe I just needed to hear some Terry Kath.  I miss him…  

Ok, so, yeah, this song is more about not giving up on love, but I’m just taking it as not giving up.  I just signed up this evening to do another marathon next spring.   I’m participating in three half-marathons next month.  I’m going to the track during the week and hitting the trail on theContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 263-Try”

Well, this is different.  I know of Ben Folds Five, but I don’t really know them.  I don’t know any of their work, that I’m aware of.  I’m most familiar with Ben Folds from the Sing Off.  Because of that, I thought I’d look at their new video, debuting with their new album release today. Continue reading “366 Day Project-Day 262-Do It Anyway”

I watched Wallander last night on PBS’ Masterpiece Mystery.  This is the theme song that plays during the opening.  Love Masterpiece.  Love Kenneth Branagh.  Love this song; perfect for the series.
