Ok, I haven’t really watched American Idol since Kelly won.  I’ve watched a performance here or there, and I know some of the winners like Carrie Underwood and Chris Daughtry. Oh, wait, he didn’t win… but he shoulda.  Other than that, I can’t really tell you who won from any of the other seasons, andContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 143-Home”

I was sad when I heard yesterday that Robin Gibb had died.  I grew up with their music as well, dancing my way through the disco era, but I stopped listening to them after a while because… well… they were the BeeGees.  My memories of them now are from the Barry Gibb Talk Show onContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 142-How Can You Mend A Broken Heart”

When I was putting Wednesday’s post together, I went to Kelly Clarkson’s website and found that Amazon had picked this song as their song of the day.  I’m making it my song of the day today.   

Heard this Wednesday night at the end of the Criminal Minds’ season finale.  I was holding my breath through much of the 2-hour show, because I was so afraid someone was going to die that I didn’t want to die, but it all worked out, sort of… It was a very touching end and thisContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 139-As It Seems”

We’ve lost another icon.  Donna Summers died today at the age of 63.  I remember her music.  I came of age during the heyday of disco; from the platform shoes to the polyester shirts, minis to maxis; I even had an afro.  Can’t say I would ever want to go back to that time, butContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 138-I Feel Love”

Just watched the trailer for a movie set to release in August, The Odd Life of Timothy Green.  It stars Jennifer Garner and Joel Edgerton and an odd little boy who comes into their lives; very touching.  I’m looking forward to seeing it when it comes out.  You can watch the trailer here. I heardContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 137-Breakaway”

I was at the gym tonight, on the treadmill, earphones in place and watching and listening to Glee.  It’s their graduation season and for this episode, they’re at Nationals again.  I heard them singing this song and tried to find a video of them performing it, but couldn’t find it.  I did find this versionContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 136-Edge of Glory”

Was planning to post one of the more familiar John Mayer songs, because my list wouldn’t be complete without at least one John Mayer song.  Personal life aside, I really like his music.  The lyrics, the music, the voice, I like his music.  Was looking at the selection of videos and found this song fromContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 135-Speak For Me”

Steve McCoy introduced me to this group recently and I now get to share them here.  You can download the album for free, or, like Steve said, donate a bunch to their work.   <a href="http://thefollowers.bandcamp.com/track/overwhelmed&quot; _mce_href="http://thefollowers.bandcamp.com/track/overwhelmed">Overwhelmed by The Followers</a>
