If you like the song, buy the CD. And do tell me if you like them, especially if they're new to you.
Thousands are Sailing, by the Pogues, from If I Should Fall From Grace of God. A gorgeous ballad about saying good-bye, among other things. I never even got so far/That they could change my name
Bijou, by Stew, from Guest Host. I have no idea how to describe this one, and would love to hear what you think of it. I just think it's really cool and unique. Imagine your grandma drunk with pearls/Chipped nail polish/Going home with girls
Coming Back to You, by Leonard Cohen, from Various Positions. If all you know is other people's covers of "Hallelujah," you are in for a treat. There are many in your life/And many still to be/Since you are a shining light/There's many that you'll see
Cowboy Singer, by Dave Carter and Tracey Grammar, from Tanglewood Tree. I love everything about this song-- it's a perfect little short story-- but perhaps the last verse the best. Seventeen years she has been in this world/
Wide-eyed and wistful, pretty little mormon girl
Texas River Song, by Lyle Lovett, from Step Into This House. A particularly good, and quite traditional version of an old folk song. The slow San Antonio courses the plains/But I never will walk by the Brazos again
