In honor of my childhood and George Michael. His songs bring back fun memories of being a kid:) "I'm never gonna dance again..."
I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies, something in your eyes
Calls to mind the silver screen
And all its sad good-byes
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you'll find
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Never without your love
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But no one's gonna dance with me
Please stay
And I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know your not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Now that you're gone
(Now that you're gone) What I did's so wrong, so wrong
That you had to leave me alone
https://youtu.be/izGwDsrQ1eQ
Music makes me happy! I've loved anything with a beat and guitar since I was a kid thanks to my fathers ways;) Now I leave my favorite songs and lyrics to my two kiddos. The bold ones are my favorites. The italicized are me just rambling on...;) Forever and ever all of my love K and Z!

Shake it Out by Florence and The Machine
She has the most beautiful voice and singing some lyrics that are right on!!! "'Cause I am done with my graceless heart, So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart..."
Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself!!!
I like to keep my issues strong
It's always darkest before the dawn
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around
Our love is pastured such a mournful sound
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues strong
But it's always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out, shake it out,
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out,
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake it off, oh whoa
'Cause I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
'Cause I like to keep my issues strong
It's always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake it off, oh whoa
I tried to dance with the devil on your back
And given half the chance would I take any of it back
It's a final mess but it's left me so empty
It's always darkest before the dawn
(Oh whoa, oh whoa)
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
It's a shot in the dark and right at my throat
'Cause looking for heaven, found the devil in me
Looking for heaven, for the devil in me
Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me
Shake it out, shake it out,
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out,
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out,
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out,
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back

More by Phish
What a hopeful song and video created for the song. There are still good people out there! "I'm vibrating with love and light, Pulsating with love and light, In a world gone bad, a world gone bad,
There must be something more than this!!!"
Life in slow motion
Feet are in the clay
I'm goin' nowhere
Been standin' here all day
I had a notion
There was somethin' more to do
As I watched the water
From the banks of the river
It swelled and grew
And I tilt to the left
Lean to the right
Tilt to the left
Lean to the right
Walked on coal
And slept on glass
Emit swords of sap
And daggers of light
And my heart is screamin'
Cause half of what I say is lies
And it takes so much to keep up this disguise
It takes so much to keep up this disguise
I see a doorway in the haze
And I'm tryin' to get to it
The stars are peep holes in a wall
but we can walk thru it
The memory's still so real,
The memory's still so real
I guess it's never really over,
Even when its over
I'm vibrating with love and light
Pulsating with love and light
In a world gone bad, a world gone bad,
There must be something more than this
I'm vibrating with love and light
Pulsating with love and light
In a world gone bad, a world gone bad,
There must be something more than this
The trumpet call is sounding
The trees are bending low
There's a great fire in the distance
There must be something more than this
And our shadows will all be dancing
With red dust on clothes
When we leave that tornado
Upwards in the clouds and feel the sky
I'm vibrating with love and light
Pulsating with love and light
In a world gone bad, a world gone bad,
There must be something more than this
I'm vibrating with love and light
Pulsating with love and light
In a world gone bad, a world gone bad,
There must be something more whoa...
There must be something more than this...
Vibrating with love and light
Pulsating with love and light
In a world gone bad, a world gone bad,
There must be something more than this
Vibrating with love and light
Pulsating with love and light
In a world gone bad, a world gone bad,
There must be something more
There must be something more than this!!!"

Wonder by Natalie Merchant
K-Adding you to this world will forever be one of my most proud accomplishments in life. Stay strong and follow your heart! You are so beautiful in side and out! "Know this child will be gifted, With love, with patience and with faith, She'll make her way, she'll make her way..."
Doctors have come from distant cities, just to see me
Stand over my bed, disbelieving what they're seeing
They say I must be one of the wonders
Of God's own creation
And as far as they see, they can offer
No explanation
Newspapers ask intimate questions, want confessions
They reach into my head to steal, the glory of my story
They say I must be one of the wonders
Of God's own creation
And as far as they see, they can offer
No explanation
Ooo, I believe, fate smiled
And destiny laughed as you came to my cradle
Know this child will be able
Laughed as my body she lifted
Know this child will be gifted
With love, with patience, and with faith
She'll make her way, she'll make her way
People see me I'm a challenge to your balance
I'm over your heads how I confound you
And astound you
To know I must be one of the wonders
God's own creation
And as far as they see, they can offer
Me no explanation
Ooo, I believe, fate smiled
And destiny laughed as she came to my cradle
Know this child will be able
Laughed as she came to my mother
Know this child will not suffer
Laughed as my body she lifted
Know this child will be gifted
With love, with patience and with faith
She'll make her way, she'll make her way
She'll make her way, she'll make her way

On The Turning Away by Pink Floyd
Our society needs to find peace! Every life matters. "No more turning away...Where the speechless unite, In a silent accord..."
On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
"Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away"
It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it's shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud
On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord
Using words you will find are strange
And mesmerized as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night
No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?

The Rising by Bruce Springsteen
In honor of 9/11 I share this song with the world:) I don't agree with the religious aspects of the song, but it was a beautiful song that showed pride in our country back in 2001/02. Still pumps me up to hear it!!! "Come on up, lay your hands in mine..."
Can't see nothin' in front of me
Can't see nothin' coming up behind
Make my way through this darkness
I can't feel nothing but this chain that binds me
Lost track of how far I've gone
How far I've gone, how high I've climbed
On my back's a sixty pound stone
On my shoulder a half mile of line
Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight
Left the house this morning
Bells ringing filled the air
I was wearin' the cross of my calling
On wheels of fire I come rollin' down here
Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight
Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li - li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li - li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li
There's spirits above and behind me
Faces gone black, eyes burnin' bright
May their precious blood bind me
Lord, as I stand before your fiery light
Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li - li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li - li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li
I see you Mary in the garden
In the garden of a thousand sighs
There's holy pictures of our children
Dancin' in a sky filled with light
May I feel your arms around me
May I feel your blood mix with mine
A dream of life comes to me
Like a catfish dancin' on the end of my line
Sky of blackness and sorrow (a dream of life)
Sky of love, sky of tears (a dream of life)
Sky of glory and sadness (a dream of life)
Sky of mercy, sky of fear (a dream of life)
Sky of memory and shadow (a dream of life)
Your burnin' wind fills my arms tonight
Sky of longing and emptiness (a dream of life)
Sky of fullness, sky of blessed life
Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight
Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li - li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li - li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li...

Shine on You Crazy Diamond by David Gilmour
Amazing guitarist! "You reached for your secret too soon. You cried for the moon. Shine on you crazy diamond..." RIP ES
Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
Blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
Rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Dear Mr. Fantasy by Steve Winwood and Eric Clapton
Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years

Waterfall by Michael Kiwanuka
Just Beautiful! Sunday Funday! "Fall with me for a million days, Oh, my waterfall..."
Waterfall, nothing can harm me at all,
My worries seem so very small
With my waterfall.
I can see my rainbow calling me
Through the misty breeze
Of my waterfall.
Some people say day-dreaming's
For all the, huh, lazy minded fools
With nothing else to do.
So let them laugh, laugh at me,
So just as long as I have you
To see me through,
I have nothing to lose 'long as I have you.
Waterfall, don't ever change your ways.
Fall with me for a million days,
Oh, my waterfall.

Ruby Tuesday by The Rolling Stones
I have always loved listening to the song on a Tuesday..."There's no time to lose", I heard her say, Catch your dreams before they slip away, Dying all the time, Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind, Ain't life unkind...?"
She would never say where she came from
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows, she comes and goes
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you
Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothings gained
And nothings lost, at such a cost
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you
"There's no time to lose", I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind
Ain't life unkind?
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you

She would never say where she came from
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows, she comes and goes
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you
Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothings gained
And nothings lost, at such a cost
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you
"There's no time to lose", I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind
Ain't life unkind?
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you

Stay by Belly
Good songs will never die, just like good memories. Missing my Poppop. My heart hurts. "And I've loved him hundreds of thousands of years...It's not time for me to go..."
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Soloman dives
For that big dusky pearl
Soloman sighs
He knows he's older than me
Sleeps with the fishes soon
Stay
Ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay
Ohh ooh oh oh stay
Soloman crawls
On the belly of God
Soloman falls on his face in love with me
He grows as old as the sea
Deep where the fishes are
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
He lives in the yard, he keeps himself hard
He keeps himself homeless and heartless and hard
He sleeps under stairs along with the heirs of nothing
And nothing means no one who cares
But I love him dear and I love him dear
And I've loved him hundreds of thousands of years
Stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay ohh ooh oh oh stay
Stay with me, stay with me
It's not time for me to go
It's not time for me to go
It's not time for me to go
Stay

Porch by Pearl Jam in Philadelphia, PA 4/28/2016
I saw this live! Amazing. Perfect night to hear it too. RIP to my Big Poppop. One could only strive to be as optimistic and loyal as you were.
What the fuck is this world
Running to?
You didn't leave a message
At least I could have
Learned your voice one last time.
Daily minefield
This could be my time
How 'bout you?
Would you hit me?
Would you hit me?
All the bills go by
And initiatives are taken up
By the middle
There ain't gonna be any middle any more
And the cross I'm bearing home
Ain't indicative of my place
Left the porch
Left the porch
Hear my name
Take a good look
This could be the day
Hold my hand
Walk beside me
I just need to say...
Hear my name
Take a good look
This could be the day
Hold my hand
Lie beside me
I just need to say
What can I take?
I just want to be
I know that i would not ever touch you
Hold you
Feel you
Ever hold
Never againhttps://youtu.be/iTTSufVmcf8

Let us burn one
From end to end
And pass it over

Burn it long, we'll burn it slow
To light me up before I go
If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
'Cause I'm gonna burn one down
Yes I'm gonna burn one down
My choice is what I choose to do
And if I'm causing no harm
It shouldn't bother you
Your choice is who you choose to be
And if your causin' no harm
Then you're alright with me
If you don't like my fire
Then don't come around
'Cause I'm gonna burn one down
Yes we are gonna burn one down
Herb the gift from the earth
And what's from the earth
Is of the greatest worth
So before you knock it, try it first

Blue In The Sky by Joe Purdy
Love!!!! "And I saw the prettiest people, They were kissing in the street, They didn't care who was watching, In the middle of the street, Didn't care who was watching..."
Well I looked out of my window this morning
And I saw the strangest thing
Everyone was walking on water and dancing in the rain
Oh darlin' I got so jealous
Just wishin' you were here with me
And I saw the prettiest people
They were kissing in the street
They didn't care who was watching
In the middle of the street
Didn't care who was watching
Well I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
And I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
And I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
Raining on me and I'm waiting on you
Just sitting here watching the weather
And I can feel the air is getting colder
They say sometimes the sunshine of a party
She's the first one to go she doesnt give any warning
She just gets up and goes she doesnt give any warning
I can see blue in the sky when its raining
And I can see blue in the sky when its raining
And I can see blue in the sky when its raining
Raining on me and I'm waiting on you
Oh, no no no no
Oh what would you do if I showed up
Oh at your doorstep just ready to go
Would you send me away
Or would you come out and play
It's just a little bit of rain and I'm leaving today
It's just a little bit of rain and I'm leaving today
'Cause I can see blue in the sky when its raining
And I can see blue in the sky when its raining
And I can see blue in the sky when its raining
Raining on me and I'm waiting on you
Oh I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
Oh I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
Oh I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
Raining on me and I'm waiting on you
Oh I can see you, no I can see you
Oh I can see you, no I can see you
Oh I can see you, no I can see you
Oh I can see you you you you.
And I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
And I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
And I can see you in my eyes when it's raining
Raining on me and I'm waiting on you

Eyes of the World by the Grateful Dead
Happy birthday to my amazing, KIND, caring, creative daughter!!! You will forever be my shining ray of light! You mean the world to me and everyone who loves you. "Wake now, discover that YOU are the song that the mornin' brings...Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own..."
Right outside this lazy summer home
You ain't got time to call your soul a critic no
Right outside the lazy gate of winter's summer home
wonderin' where the nut-thatch winters
Wings a mile long just carried the bird away
Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world
The heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own
Wake now, discover that you are the song that the mornin' brings
But the heart has its seasons, its evenins and songs of its own
There comes a redeemer, and he slowly too fades away
And there follows his wagon behind him that's loaded with clay
And the seeds that were silent all burst into bloom, and decay
And night comes so quiet, it's close on the heels of the day
Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world
The heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own
Wake now, discover that you are the song that the mornin' brings
The heart has its seasons, its evenin's and songs of its own
Sometimes we live no particular way but our own!!!
And sometimes we visit your country and live in your home
Sometimes we ride on your horses, sometimes we walk alone
Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own!!!!!!!
Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world
The heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own
Wake now, discover that you are the song that the mornin' brings
But the heart has its seasons, its evenin's and songs of its own

Dear Prudence by the Jerry Garcia Band
Absolutely PERFECT beautiful Sunday music! I was visiting my best friend and this was playing in her house. Makes my heart feel full:) Lyrics in this version are a tad off but it's just as fabulous. "The wind is low, the birds will sing, That you are part of everything, Dear Prudence, won't you open up your eyes!!!"
Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sky is blue, the birds will sing,
That you are part of everything,
Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?
Dear Prudence, open up your eyes
Dear Prudence, greet the sun and sky
The wind is low, the birds will sing
That you are part of everything
Dear Prudence, won't you open up your eyes?
Look around round round
Look around round round
Look around
Dear Prudence, let me see you smile
Dear Prudence, like a little child
The clouds will be a daisy chain
So let me see you smile again
Dear Prudence, won't you let me see you smile?
Dear Prudence, let me see you smile
Dear Prudence, like a little child
The clouds will be a daisy chain
So let me see you smile again
Dear Prudence, won't you open up your eyes?

Let's Dance by David Bowie
Been on a wonderful David Bowie kick for a bit. Love to sing the "If you say run..." verse so LOUD:)!!!! "Let's sway you could look into my eyes, Let's sway under the moonlight, The serious moonlight!"
Let's dance
Put on your red shoes and dance the blues
Let's dance to the song
They're playin' on the radio
Let's sway
While color lights up your face
Let's sway
Sway through the crowd to an empty space
If you say run, I'll run with you
If you say hide, we'll hide
Because my love for you
Would break my heart in two
If you should fall
Into my arms
And tremble like a flower
Let's dance for fear
Your grace should fall
Let's dance for fear tonight is all
Let's sway you could look into my eyes
Let's sway under the moonlight,
This serious moonlight
If you say run, I'll run with you
If you say hide, we'll hide
Because my love for you
Would break my heart in two
If you should fall
Into my arms
And tremble like a flower
Let's dance put on your red shoes
And dance the blues
Let's dance to the song
They're playin' on the radio
Let's sway you could look into my eyes
Let's sway under the moonlight!!!!
The serious moonlight!

May This Be Love covered by Joe Satriani
Nothing beats Hendrix, but I can not find it anywhere on youtube! Just love this song:) Remember it from the Singles soundtrack, which I just recently re downloaded.
Waterfall, nothing can harm me at all,
My worries seem so very small
With my waterfall.
I can see my rainbow calling me
Through the misty breeze
Of my waterfall.
Some people say day-dreaming's
For all the, huh, lazy minded fools
With nothing else to do.
So let them laugh, laugh at me,
So just as long as I have you
To see me through,
I have nothing to lose 'long as I have you.
Waterfall, don't ever change your ways.
Fall with me for a million days,
Oh, my waterfall.

Space Oddity by David Bowie
RIP David Bowie "And I'm floating in a most peculiar way, And the stars look very different today..."
Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground Control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
Ground Control to Major Tom (Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six)
Commencing countdown, engines on (Five, Four, Three)
Check ignition and may God's love be with you (Two, One, Liftoff)
This is Ground Control to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare
"This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do
Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles
I'm feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much she knows
Ground Control to Major Tom
Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you "Here am I floating round my tin can
Far above the Moon
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do."

Container by Fiona Apple
I was screaming into the canyon
At the moment of my death
The echo I created
Outlasted my last breath
My voice it made an avalanche
And buried a man I never knew
And when he died his widowed bride
Met your daddy and they made you
I have only one thing to do and that's
To be the wave that I am and then
Sink back into the ocean
Sink back into the o-
Sink back into the ocean
Sink back into the o-
Sink back into the ocean
Sink back into the ocean

Rise Up by Eddie Vedder into Under Pressure with Ben Harper
Being the best person I can be! New year motivation: "Gonna rise up, Find my direction magnetically, Gonna rise up, Throw down my ace in the hole..."
Such is the way of the world
You can never know
Just where to put all your faith
And how will it grow?
Gonna rise up
Burning black holes in dark memories
Gonna rise up
Turning mistakes into gold...
Such is the passage of time
Too fast to fold
Suddenly swallowed by signs
Low and behold
Gonna rise up
Find my direction magnetically
Gonna rise up
Throw down my ace in the hole
https://youtu.be/2NEUic49Q8c
