I wrote earlier about remembering a cassette tape that my daughter received from a friend at the end of their 8th grade year.  This is the song that I remembered most from that cassette and that summer.  

Saw an amazing production of “The Grapes of Wrath” tonight.  Awesome performances and the set was perfectly sparse and the music… well the music was provided by a live bluegrass/folk band and they provided the perfect cadence to the poignant, painful story of the Joad family.  I came home thinking of the music and beganContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 125-Rye Whiskey”

I heard this song this evening and reminded me of a cassette that Mandy received from a friend at the end of her 8th grade year.  We were moving to the Central Valley from the Bay Area and she was dealing with the transition, leaving friends and school and all that she had known forContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 124-Kiss Me”

Heard this on the radio.  That seems to be my motivation of late for what to post.  Works for me.  It’s the Fray.  Nuff said.  For now anyway…   http://www.youtube.com/v/fFRkpvvop3I?hl=en&hd=1&lt;\/embed><\/object><\/div>";” alt=””>

Ok, I don’t really like to post covers, but I really like this version of this song.  Don’t get me wrong, I love Outkast’s performance of this song, but I just like this cover.  It brings out the lyrics more, which are pretty cool.  And yeah, this takes us back a few years, but IContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 122-Hey Ya! (cover)”

It’s Monday and time for “the Voice” and time to hear the amazing voice of Lindsey Pavao…  Did I tell you that I love her voice and her style…?  

When I first heard this song, I immediately thought of Psalm 139.  I love that passage that starts, “Where shall I go from your Spirit?”  I’ve tested that passage.  I’ve fled.  I’ve run from God, made my bed in dire conditions and dreadful situations, but no matter where I went or what I did… GodContinue reading “366 Day Project-Day 120-Hymn”

Anxiously waiting for Mumford & Son’s next album to be released.  They keep performing new material in the meantime, which sates my appetite in the moment for their songs, but it only makes me want more.   http://www.youtube.com/v/D6-EUSvJchI?hl=en&hd=1&lt;\/embed><\/object><\/div>";” alt=””>

This will be the third Taylor Swift song I’ve posted…interesting.  It’s also the second song from the Hunger Games soundtrack that I’ve posted…very interesting.  I like Taylor Swift.  I really liked the Hunger Games.  It’s just a good combination.   http://www.youtube.com/v/D4NPAMnnbdg?hl=en&hd=1&lt;\/embed><\/object><\/div>";” alt=””>

Hadn’t heard this song in a while.  Nice to revisit.   http://www.youtube.com/v/j-fWDrZSiZs?hl=en&hd=1&lt;\/embed><\/object><\/div>";” alt=””>
