music

i really love music.  i think i'd be more okay without a tv than without a radio or computer to play music. i don't have any musical talent whatsoever.  well, my sister-in-law and i can sing pretty good duets, but beyond that, nothing.  but i love music.  every song that i hear reminds of something, makes me feel something, or makes me want to be or feel something. 

for instance.  the other night jonathan and i were driving around and kenny chesney's "she's from boston" came on the radio.  i told jonathan that that song makes me want to grow dreads, wear a red sox cap, listen to reggae, and work on a harbor.  listen to the song, you'll feel that way too.

and then there's the song jonathan and i have chosen to dance to for our wedding. when i hear it i'm lost in what i'll feel like at the exact moment we're dancing and married. i'm lost in what people will be thinking and feeling and how they'll look at us. it's not just a song anymore. it's a memory. or a foreshadow.

all that to say, i love music.  i love to just listen to music for hours. so right now, i've got some new favorites i thought i'd share. hope you love them too.




yes. i just brought y'all back there. to ja rule. and yes. i know all the words. and yes jonathan texts me sometimes and says " every thug needs a lady." he's not a thug. but i'll be his lady. the end.

okay. enjoy. goodnight.
