Song of the Day - Speak to Me/Breath (1973)

Breathe, breathe in the air

Don't be afraid to care

Leave but don't leave me

Look around and choose your own ground

For long you live and high you fly

And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry

And all you touch and all you see

Is all your life will ever be

Run, rabbit, run

Dig that hole, forget the sun,

And when at last the work is done

Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

For long you live and high you fly

But only if you ride the tide

And balanced on the biggest wave

You race toward an early grave...

WOW! Inspirational

-Taylor Swift

HAHAHAHAH It is appalling to me just how bad popular music has become. The fact that people consider Taylor Swift an "artist" is preposterous! Just because you write your own terrible song, doesn't make it NOT a terrible song...so angering.

BUT in an attempt not to bash what I hate, and to promote what I love...let's listen to a beautiful, talented songwriting female to wash this disgusting taste out of our mouths ;)

  

Carole King - Been to Canaan

Song of the Day - Take the Box - Amy Winehouse (2004)

Amazing.

Song of the Day - Spanish Harlem Incident - Bob Dylan (1964)

Even So - Bob Weir (2000)

"Wish you were naked

Wish you were wholesome and sincere

Wish I could fake it

Wish I were anywhere but here

Even so - you make yes look like no

Even so - you've been so nice to know, been so nice to know

But no, but no, oh no, no no, no, no..."

Old Man - Neil Young (1971)

Blues for Allah (1975) Grateful Dead

Foolish Heart

Carve your name

Carve your name in ice and wind

Search for where 

Search for where the rivers end

Or where the rivers start

Do everything that's in you

That you feel to be your part

But never give your love, my friend,

Unto a foolish heart...

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros- Give Me a Sign

"But I feel your soul..."

Gravity

Gravity is working against me

And gravity wants to bring me down

Oh I'll never know what makes this man

With all the love that his heart can stand

Dream of ways to throw it all away

Oh, gravity is working against me

And gravity wants to bring me down

Oh twice as much ain't twice as good

And can't sustain like one half could

It's wanting more

That's gonna send me to my knees

Oh gravity, stay the hell away from me

Oh gravity has taken better men than me- how can that be?

Just keep me where the light is

And now the final frame

AMY WINEHOUSE 

Love is a fate resigned.

This Day in Music History - April 26th

2008 Amy Winehouse spent the night in custody after being arrested on suspicion of assault. Police said Winehouse had been "in no fit state" to be questioned when she arrived at the London station and she was kept in the cells. The 24-year-old was to be questioned about an incident said to have occurred 3 days earlier after a 38-year-old man claimed he was assaulted.
