Sometimes things are so difficult to see, until we see them. At any rate, Ingrid Michaelson, a lovely favorite of mine put out a new cd. Here is one of the songs from her new album!

I found the most amazing and relevant song by Catherine Feeney and thought you should hear it.
I watched an incredibly touching movie, The Other Woman, with Natalie Portman, Lisa Kudrow, Scott Cohen and Charlie Tahan. It is based on a book I read some years ago, “Love and other impossible pursuits“. It had an amazing soundtrack. I went to purchase it after I finished watching the movie but I couldn’t find it anywhere. I couldn’t even find half the songs. So, I watched the ending credits over and over and over until I got all the information I could for myself and for you. Here are the songs found in the 2009 movie The Other Woman (some are missing…feel free to give me an update if you find more!).
You are goodbye by Holly Conlan

Do you realize? by Flaming Lips

I heard a beautiful song on a commercial and had to find out what it was… I did… “Fall too slow” by Andra. She is a singer from South Africa. You can hear the song below or read more about her here and here.
This girl has got a smile
That can make me cry
This girl just burns with love
She’s burning burning deep outside
Night time night time
Sets my house on fire
I’ll turn into the melting man
I’ll lose my life
To feel I feel desire
Oh I should feel
Like a polar bear
Like a polar bear
It’s impossible
She flies outside this cage
Singing girl-mad words
I keep her dark thoughts deep inside
As black as stone
As mad as birds
Wild wild wild
And never turn away
Sends me all her love
She sends me everything
She sends me everywhere
Oh I could be
A polar bear
Oh I could be
A polar bear
But it’s impossible
I try to talk
The sky goes red
I forget
So fill my head
With some of this
Some of that
Some of every word she said
Oh I should be
A polar bear
But it’s imposible
– Lyrics (The Cure)

Simply a beautiful picture worth sharing…
It makes me think of ‘home’ as if we will gather with everyone we ever loved right here in this field…muted, surreal. And then there is the bird, always… how lovely.
A couple songs to sit with…

“Kind hearts are the gardens, kind thoughts are the roots, kind words are the flowers, and kind deeds are the fruits. Take care of your garden and keep out the weeds, fill it with sunshine kind words and kind deeds.” ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
A mesmerizing photograph, a lovely song… and a moving quote. Well worth the share, don’t you think?
For your listening pleasure… a few of my favorite renditions of You are my sunshine
Children – You Are My Sunshine
Gene Autry – You Are My Sunshine
Sara Gazarek – You Are My Sunshine
I am particularly fond of the last by Sara Gazarek!
In lieu of my genetic need to see my species survive, I will continue to bring you different ways you can help save the redheads… watch this video from Stu Stone as he attempts to do a charity cause video for the benefit of all redheads…
Oh! This is going to be such a wonderful musical fest… Lilith Fair 2010. It is this summer all over the country, so everyone can join in the fun. Seattle’s is on July 3rd. There will be a variety of ladies singing for each stop along the way. Some main headlines like Sarah McLachlan will be at all the venues but others will be joining in throughout various locations. Some of my favorite lady singers will be there:
This is not an event to miss! =) Check it out…
I have always loved Rosie…her voice, her music is a gift to me. I couldn’t find the lyrics anywhere for her song, “SONGS” and so I thought I would post them here for my own pleasure (and anyone else’s who stumbles upon them…)
Songs by Rosie Thomas
How
How do I
Get it right
With my life
With a stubborn heart
A puzzled mind
These useless worries
Worries of mine?
And how
How do I
Keep my head
My head up high
When the more I know
The less I feel
A song’s a song
But love is real
Love is real
And how
How do I
Carry on
Carry light
When the whole world
Is in my hands
A song’s a song
But love’s their debt
Love’s their debt
Love’s my chance
