You are my sunshine

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrqdqMJenTQ&feature=related

When I was a lil lad, my "mamaw"( mothers'mother/grandmother ) used to play the banjo & sing me this song. She did it to make me smile,

I think of it when I am feelin a bit "down".

I hope it make you feel better as It did me...No matter how you are feelin.

Beautiful Feeling / P.J. Harvey
-------------------------------------

Sometimes I can see for miles
Through water and fire
From England to America
I feel life meet my eyes

And it's the best thing
A beautiful feeling

A smile from San Diego
He is still a boy
Two ends to every rainbow
And a train from Mexico

But he's the best thing
A beautiful feeling

And when I watch you move
And I can't think straight
And I am silenced
And I can't think straight

It's the best thing Such a beautiful feeling

"Dear Miami" / Róisín Murphy
---------------------------------

Behind these walls
You can be so self-absorbed
Behind those eyes, no disguise
Disguise, no you can't disguise
Behind this fortress of an address
Stuck in the passion void
With a little style full and for a while
But you can't turn back time

Dear Miami
You're the first to go
Disappearing
Under melting snow
Each and everyone
Turn your critical eye
On the burning sun
And try not to cry

Strictly rolling V.I.P.

We got it all
The empire ever falls
We got all control, untold power to
Do what we wanna do
We got the moves
But there's nothing left to prove
There's only stardust memories
We can make come true

Dear Miami
You're the first to go
Disappearing
Under melting snow
Each and everyone
Turn your critical eye
On the burning sun
And try not to cry

Dear Miami
You're the first to go
Disappearing
Under melting snow
Each and everyone
Turn your critical eye
On the burning sun
And try not to cry

Merry-go-round again
A carousel
Passionate raid
An escapade

Strictly rolling V.I.P.

"Let's Get Free" / Sheryl Crow
--------------------------------------

Well, I went searching
For something I could believe
So I turned on the TV
I was fed hypocrisy
Leading me towards a sea of confusion

I heard a voice
Ringing like music in the air
Breaking hearts most everywhere
All the people in despair
Cry out for justice to be fair to every people

Saying let's get free, let's get free
Don't just believe in what you hear
Don't just believe in what you see
Let's get free, let's get free
You've gotta open up your mind
'Cause truth is what you need
Oh, truth is what you need

All the love
Can prop you up and make you stand
Some are sinking in the sand
With all that silver in their hand
Take a message to that man
That wisdom is power

And tell me now
Do you have Allah on your side?
Or is it Jesus, or your pride?
Will it get you through the night?
Every man has to find something to believe in

Let's get free, let's get free
You gotta believe in what you feel
And feel what you believe
Let's get free, let's get free
You can open up your heart
'Cause love is all you need
Oh, love is all you need

Before the dawn
Comes the darkest hour of night
You either walk into the light
Or you turn and close your eyes
And fade into a dreamless sleep and hide

Well every human
Is gonna laugh and sometimes cry
But every tear that fills your eyes
Falls with the weight of sacrifice
Forgiveness is the pain of disappointment

Let's get free, let's get free
Don't just believe in what you hear
Don't just believe in what you see
Let's get free, let's get free
Everything's as it should be
So faith is all you need
Oh, peace is all you need
Oh, truth is all you need, yeah

What the world needs now is love, love, love

I just found this song on a movie called "I am David"

_http://youtu.be/_rPeRkVmCtg

Cold Water from Damien Rice
 
Listening to The Who, "Won't Get Fooled Again"
Still get the chills on this one, like I did in the 60's--especially that last lyric/finale, "meet the new boss, same as the old boss!"

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Lyrics:
We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgment of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
And I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again

Change it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fall that's all
But the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
And I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!

I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
For I know that the hypnotized never lie

Do ya?


There's nothing in the street
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Is now the parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

Forum member Al Today mentioned the Kent State tragedy the other day in a post. This song about that day keeps running thru my head.

I brought it here to share with you.

I hope you can enjoy the sounds of days long ago, even though it is about a tragedy.

Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young - Ohio ( from the album "Cost of Freedom")

Merry Christmas :)

(Oh Elvis! eeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhh!! sigh!! moan!! groan!! ;)
 
One more (oh Elvis)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZZA6ELINBc

There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why can't my dream come true
Oh why

There must be peace and understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise that will blow away
the doubt and fear
If I can dream of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear

We're lost in a cloud
With too much rain
We're trapped in a world
That's troubled with pain
But as long as a man
Has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly

Deep in my heart there's a tremblin' question
Still I am sure that the answer, answer's gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, there's a beckoning candle, yeah
And while I can think, while I can walk
While I can stand, while I can talk
While I can dream, please let my dream
Come true......right now
 
"Simple Thing" / Zero 7
-----------------------------

It’s an easy ride to roam
You’ll never walk alone
Natuarally we blew
Simple things we say
Everyday we find the way

Seems like we’ve opened up the door
Feels like we’ve walked this way before
Natuarally we blew
Simple things you say
Everyday you'll find the way
It amazes
Everyday

Man! -I'd like a brand new car, a twangy guitar, a cute little honey and lots of money too, Santa!
 
Weathercock...

some good old piece of Jethro Tull..



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h52njcxZptc


and here the text for those who want to join in singing :) :



Good morning Weathercock: How did you fare last night?
Did the cold wind bite you, did you face up to the fright
When the leaves spin from October
and whip around your tail?
Did you shake from the blast, did you shiver through the gale?

Give us direction; the best of goodwill ---
Put us in touch with fair winds.
Sing to us softly, hum evening's song ---
Tell us what the blacksmith has done for you.

Do you simply reflect changes in the patterns of the sky,
Or is it true to say the weather heeds the twinkle in your eye?
Do you fight the rush of winter; do you hold snowflakes at bay?
Do you lift the dawn sun from the fields and help him on his way?

Good morning Weathercock: make this day bright.
Put us in touch with your fair winds.
Sing to us softly, hum evening's song.
Point the way to better days we can share with you.
