with ten miles behind me, and ten thousand more to go...
You don't even know how excited I am about Red River. We leave in a few hours to head up to fort worth, spend the night, and make the 20 hour drive to New Mexico. Hmmmmm.

This is my hypothetical CD of "Most Beautiful Songs Ever Written":

1. Places I Remember - The Beatles
2. Brightly Wound - Eisley
3. Come What May - Moulin Rouge soundtrack
4. You'll Be In My Heart - Phil Collins
5. God is God - Steven Curtis Chapman
6. Hello - Evanescence
7. Into the West - Annie Lennox
8. Miracle of Miracles - Fiddler on the Roof soundtrack
9. Sweet Baby James - James Taylor
10. What a Wonderful World - Louie Armstrong
11. My Father's Gun - Elton John
12. Be Careful - Patty Griffin
13. Piano Man - Billy Joel
14. Zoe Jane - Staind
15. Shoot the Moon - Norah Jones
16. Elijah - Rich Mullins
17.For Good - Wicked soundtrack
18. Horse With No Name - America

Your thoughts?

I suggest that if there are songs on that list that you have never heard before, go look them up. They're all on there for good reason.

I'll miss all yall! *muuuaaahhhh*

"All will turn to silver glass
A light on the water also's past
Hope fades into the world of night
Through shadows falling out of memory and time"

Well, I may not agree with all of your choices but I'm delighted to see that there are quite a few I do love! Quite a broad scope there!

Geez, I know almost all the songs (except the current bands) but I'm trying to figure out how YOU know half of them?? I wouldn't have bet you even knew who Elton John, Annie Lennox, or America were! Guess there is hope for you and your like ;-) Oh, and "Sister Golden Hair" is the better America song.

  • If we shadows have offended, Think but this, and all is mended, That you have but slumber’d here While these visions did appear. And this weak and idle theme, No more yielding but a dream, Gentles, do not reprehend: if you pardon, we will mend: And, as I am an honest Puck, If we have unearned luck Now to ’scape the serpent’s tongue, We will make amends ere long; Else the Puck a liar call; So, good night unto you all. Give me your hands, if we be friends, And Robin shall restore amends.

    remember that it's for you only
    warm face, warm hands, warm feet
    another day that I can't find my head

    we could say that forever is more than just a word
    oh no, the bugs are growing faces
    long lost words whisper slowly to me
    don't you worry, there's still time
