Music to share
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
