Joanna Newsom - 81
I found a little plot of land In the garden of eden It was dirt and dirt is all the same I tilled it with my two hands I called it my very own There was no one to dispute my claim Well, you'd be shocked at the state of things The whole place had just cleared right out It was hotter than hell, so I lay me by a spring For a spell as naked as a trout The wandering eye that I have caught Is as hot as a wandering sun But I will want for nothing more, in the garden To start again In the hardening of every new heart but one Meet me in the garden of Eden, Bring a friend, we are going to have a time We have are going to have a garden party, It's on me, no sir-e, it's my dime We broke out hearts in the war between St. George and the dragon But both in equal parts are welcome to come along To come along, I'm inviting everyone Farewell, to loves that i have known Even muddiest as waters run Tell me what is meant by sitting alone in a garden, Seceded from the Union in the year of '81? The unending amends you made Are enough for one life, be done I believe in innocence, little darling, start again I believe in everyone I believe, regardless, I believe in everyone.

David Essex - Oh what a circus
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YInWq7qt4PA A school trip in the late 70s to Porthcawl. Every time I hear this I'm in the back seat of the coach with my mates just being a teenager and....? Just being alive and vital Music's a wonderful thing but it's also double-edged. In a split second you can contrast the you which exists now with the wide-eyed kid who was going to kick society in the b*llocks and do just whatever he wanted.

This may sound odd but Silent Night touches my heart and brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it. One of the most enduring memories of childhood for me is Christmas Eve and services at church. My sister and I would suffer through Christmas Eve day, presents under the tree we couldn't open just yet, the smell of ham baking in the oven, mom pressing off our "good" clothes for church that night. Finally, we put on our best clothes and sat down to dinner that evening. Candles, all the finest dishes we had and a meal that to many was modest at most but to a 10 year old boy seemed as if we were dining at The Ritz Carlton. My father in his best suit and tie....mom in her prettiest dress and pearls. After dinner we bundled up and left for church. Each of us was given a candle at the door as we entered, instructed to keep it safe until after the sermon. Then all the lights were turned off as ushers walked down the aisles lighting the candle of each person at the end of the pew who would, in turn, light the candle of the person next to them. In no time at all, the church was aglow, bathed in candlelight and we sang Christmas carols. I remember taking in the sight of hundreds of candles burning, light glancing off of the tall stained glass windows and thinking how wonderful the sound, how beautiful the scene. The last carol was always Silent Night. Afterwards my sister and I would try to see how far we could go outside the church keeping our candles lit, down High Street, before the crisp winter wind would extinguish the flame. On the way home dad would drive through the nicer neighborhoods so we could look at their decorations. Hundreds of blinking lights, manger scenes and Santa's sleigh and reindeer. Eventually we got home, changed into our pajamas and left milk and cookies out for Santa. Then mom and dad would scoot us off to bed because, as we all know, Santa won't come if you're awake. I think I fell asleep the second my head touched the pillow. That all seems as if it were just yesterday but it was over 40 years ago. My dad has been dead 25 years now and my mom is 71. Every Christmas Eve I take my mom to church. Each time we light candles and sing Christmas carols. Each time Silent Night is the last carol sung. And each time my eyes well up with tears as I remember sweet and innocent memories of times past. What I wouldn't give to have just one more Christmas Eve as that wide eyed 10 year old boy sitting by my father in church. Andy Williams - Silent Night |

Maria McKee - Why Wasn't I More Grateful
I had angels, a gang of angels, By my side , Livin' lucky, golden girl with an easy ride, Little worry, loads of time, yeah, Wasn't it enough, wasn't it, wasn't it enough ? Tell me why wasn't I more grateful ? Why wasn't I more grateful ? Why wasn't I, why wasn't I more grateful, When life was sweet, when life was sweet ? Some people want and want and want what they don't have, Until it keeps 'em awake at night in their bed just twitchin', Some people like to complain about every little thing, Some folks just never stop bitchin', I had a good man, I took him for granted, And now I surely, surely, surely, surely miss him, Wasn't it enough? wasn't it, wasn't it enough? Tell me why wasn't I more grateful ? Why wasn't I more grateful ? Why wasn't I, why wasn't I more grateful ? When life was sweet, when life was sweet ? Why wasn't I, why wasn't I ? And it keeps me wonderin' what might've been , Keeps me wonderin' what might've been, yeah , To the Lord more grateful.

I stumbled across this album in a bargain bin at a record store and thought the album cover was interesting, so I bought it. Exiting the store, I tramped through the snow on a cold Utah winter's day and climbed into my truck. While waiting for my windshield to defrost, I popped the CD in with little excitement or expectation. The first track, "In The Sun", played and I just sat staring out the window with tears rolling down my cheeks. Years of repressed emotions, anger and loss came flooding through me. I just let it all out. Wiping my eyes and laughing at how ridiculous I must have looked, I put the truck in gear and drove slowly off with a little smile on my face and a huge load off of my shoulders.
This song humbles me somehow and I still listen to it when I need to just let go of stuff. Anyway, here it is... Joseph Arthur ~ In The Sun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zGavNdWWKU I picture you in the sun wondering what went wrong And falling down on your knees asking for sympathy And being caught in between all you wish for and all you seen And trying to find anything you can feel that you can believe in May god's love be with you Always May god's love be with you I know I would apologize if I could see your eyes cause when you showed me myself I became someone else But I was caught in between all you wish for and all you need I picture you fast asleep A nightmare comes You cant keep awake May god's love be with you Always May god's love be with you cause if I find If I find my own way How much will I find If I find If I find my own way How much will I find You I don't know anymore What its for I'm not even sure If there is anyone who is in the sun Will you help me to understand cause I been caught in between all I wish for and all I need Maybe you're not even sure what its for Any more than me May god's love be with you Always May god's love be with you

This one knocks me out everytime I hear it, not exactly happy stuff ,but in some strange way it gives me some kind of relief...
Richard & Linda Thompson http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTZWXrVWtvg "The End Of The Rainbow" I feel for you, you little horror Safe at your mother's breast No lucky break for you around the corner 'Cos your father is a bully And he thinks that you're a pest And your sister, she's no better than a whore Life seems so rosy in the cradle but I'll be a friend, I'll tell you what's in store There's nothing at the end of the rainbow There's nothing to grow up for anymore Tycoons and barrow boys will rob you And throw you on the side And all because they love themselves sincerely And the man holds a bread-knife Up to your throat, is four feet wide And he's anxious just to show you what it's for Your mother works so hard to make you happy But take a look outside the nursery door There's nothing at the end of the rainbow There's nothing to grow up for anymore All the sad and empty faces That pass you on the street All running in their sleep, all in a dream Every loving handshake Is just another man to beat How your heart aches just to cut him to the core Life seems so rosy in the cradle but I'll be a friend, I'll tell you what's in store There's nothing at the end of the rainbow There's nothing to grow up for anymore |
