A little tune by one of your favorites Nora Jones and one of my favorites Bonnie Raitt...what a wonderful blend of voices...hope you enjoy my friend, see you in July.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARCI!!!
Go Outside and Play!
“Go outside and play!” said God.
“I have given you Universes
as fields to run free in!
And here—take this and wrap yourself in it—It’s called:
LOVE
and It will always, always keep you warm.
And stars! The sun and the moon and the stars!
Look upon these often, for they will remind you
of your own light!
And eyes…oh, gaze into the eyes of every Lover.
Gaze into the eyes of every other
for they have given you their Universes
as fields to run free in.
There.
I have given you everything you need.
Now go, go, go outside and play!”

SO TODAY IT'S WORKING. HM, PERHAPS IT REALLY WAS BECAUSE I ALSO HAD SOMETHING ELSE OPEN WHEN I TRIED IT BEFORE.
DAVID SAYS THANK YOU AND THAT IT'S SWEET OF YOU AND SENDS GREETINGS BACK TO YOUR SON.
IT'S SO FUNNY, I DO KNOW BOTH SONGS AND IT SEEMS LIKE A MILLION LIGHTYEARS AND A FEW HOUSES AGO THAT I FIRST SAW DOLLY EMMYLOU AND LINDA ON M-TV I THINK AND I EVEN TAPED IT ON VIDEO, IF I REMEMBER IT CORRECTLY... BUT I DEFINITELY WENT RIGHT OUT AND BOUGHT THE ALBUM! IT'S SO NICELY OVER-DRAMATIZED, I LIKE THAT! AND I THINK THAT'S ALSO WHAT I ALWAYS LOVED ABOUT EMMYLOU THAT SHE JUST COMPLETELY DROWNS IN EMOTION. I REMEMBER I SHE MADE AN ALBUM, SOMETHING LIKE "BALLAD OF SALLY ROSE" I THINK... AND I TOTALLY ADORED ALL THE SLOW NUMBERS "DIAMOND IN MY CROWN" AND ALSO "HEART TO HEART", ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PLAYED AT MY WEDDING... BUT THEN I COMPLETELY FORGOT ALL ABOUT MUSIC. WOULD YOU BELIEVE THAT?! I ARRANGED EVERYTHING AND JUST FORGOT THE MUSIC!!! BUT LUCKILY SOME FRIENDS SAVED IT, THEIR PRESENTS HAD ANYWAY BEEN THAT THEY WOULD PLAY FOR US AND SOME OF THEM ARE PROFESSIONAL ENTERTAINERS, SO IT WORKED OUT JUST FINE.
SO I'M TRYING AGAIN. I WAS JUST AFRAID TO LOSE THE COMMENT AND RATHER WANTED TO START AGAIN... HAVE HAD ENOUGH TROUBLE WITH THE PC YESTERDAY...
ANYWAY... FOR ME IT WAS PROBABLY VERY IMPORTANT TO LISTEN TO MUSIC LIKE THAT BECAUSE I ALSO WASN'T ALLOWED TO EXPRESS MY EMOTIONS. IN FACT EMOTIONS WERE CONSIDERED NOT SUITED AT ALL. WHICH IS VERY FUNNY, BECAUSE ALL THESE PEOPLE WHO INSIST ON THAT, KEEPING IT FROM THE HEART AND DOWN TO EARTH, HA HA, THEY ARE USUALLY THE REAL WINERS, ALMOST DROWN IN EMOTIONS WHICH THEY CAN'T CONTROL OR ARE THE WORLD CHAMPIONS IN EMOTIONAL BLACK MAIL!!!
ALSO THOSE WHO CLAIM THAT THERE IS NOTHING MORE THAN THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE... YOU SHOULD SEE THE GAMES THEY HAVE GOT GOING ON A SPIRITUAL LEVEL! I SOMETIMES REALLY FELT LIKE GETTING AHOLD OF SUCH A PERSON, SHAKING HER/HIM AND POINTING TO WHICH FILTHY TRICK SHE/HE WAS JUST PULLING ON ONE OF HER FELLOW MEN! AND THAT'S WHY PEOPLE CAN'T REMEMBER AND SAY IT DOESN'T EXCIST: THEY HAVE MESSED UP TOO BADLY ON THAT LEVEL THAN FOR THEM TO WANT TO LOOK AT IT!
BACK TO THE TWO SONGS: THEY ARE BOTH REALLY WONDERFUL AND CREATE A WARM ATMOSPHERE! THANKS FOR POSTINGF THIS AND THANKS FOR HONORING DAVID!
LOVE, SARAH SOFIA
