If any of you have I-Tunes (I and my i-pod couldn't live without it), let's share what we're listening to, okay? To me, music is such a vision into someone else's soul and "system", you know? Right now, one of the favorites on my i-pod (which is with me everywhere when I'm out and about) is: "FIREFLIES" by Owl City. So, share. It will give us all an idea of where we are and who we are, our tastes, orientations, etc. Is this okay?
Open yourself to some of the stuff that I and some others may suggest here. (I like praise music, too, and one of my favorites is, "The Artist" by the Wynanns (sp?). Love, jen
Also, "That I would be good", by Alanis Morrisette. It makes me cry every time I hear it. Reminds me of an alzheimer's patient or even myself if I became incompetent. Wanting to be loved and appreciated anyway, you know?
Jen, do a search for Pandora Radio and download it. You can type in the name of a group or artist you like and they will play similar groups and music styles. I like James Taylor and Train and Counting Crows so I type them all in and a variety of their music and similar stuff plays. When I'm on the computer I can open a second window or tab and have it play while I surf and read discussions. I like the new Black Eyed Peas song about tonight's the night and Adele. Rascal Flatts and Sugerland.
Rascal Flatts has a good song about a grandmother who has lost her memory, I can't think of the name but it makes me cry. Also To Say Goodbye by Joey and Rory
All day long I've had these CD's alternating on the player: movie soundtrack from Mama Mia Wayra & Alborada vol. 3 Enya - A Day without Rain Dido - Life for Rent
I love most type of music but tend towards Country. Yesterday on the way to and from the hospital I listen to Trisha Yearwood, I cry when she sing "How Do I LIve", then I love "The Song Remembers When", and Let's Make Love Tonight. I also love Enya, Celtic Women, Martina McBride, especially her version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow, gotta have Toby Keith singing I Love This Bar, Natalie Cole singing "Unforgettable" (our song), Rod Stewart singing the old standards is great, and I have an old Boyz 2Men CD that brings back some memories. I love Daryl Worleys, "I Miss My Friend".
My DW does not like just CD's but likes some of the cable channells like GAC, and there are always some specials, like one last week on Neil Diamond that is a 2 hr. great great collection of his music and his life. Carol really likes those kind of programs. We even have some other specials from previous DVR. Have fun. Helps me go to sleep while it keeps Carol happy. And you know that is my key word. bill
I caught the last 1/2 hour of Neil Diamond and it was good. Hopefully they will repeat it since I don't have the money to buy the DVD. Wal-mart is suppose to have it.
"Hot August Night/NYC," which is being sold exclusively at Wal-Mart properties, was filmed and recorded at New York's Madison Square Garden during Diamond's four-night run there a year ago. The DVD features the entire 26-song performance as well as a documentary, "Welcome Home Neil," in which Diamond visits his childhood haunts in Brooklyn.
