Volume 62 on my radio dial has taken on a new meaning (no longer will it just stand as a reminder for my days as a crazed mom--see prior post "Food Fight" for context).
Instead 62 is the perfect volume to crank up some fabulous tunes to.
As previously mentioned, Eric is a music junkie and is spot on when it comes to music that others would like...
I just stumbled upon a playlist on my ipod that he created especially for me and hit 62!
For those of you interested in hearing some of these songs, I thought I'd share them.
Another Travelin' Song, Bright Eyes
Some fav lines...
"The best that I can do now is pretend that I've done nothing wrong and to dream about a train that's gonna take me back to where I belong."
"Nothing in the past or future will feel like today..."

Portland, Oregon, Loretta Lynn. Ever since Sissy Spacek played her in Coal Miner's Daughter I've been a fan. ;) Great line here--"slo gin fizz works mighty fast when you drink it by the pitcher and not by the glass."

Two, Ryan Adams.
I love most all things Ryan Adams. Eric bought me tickets as a Christmas gift to see him at Moore Theatre in January but we were in Disneyland so had to sell them! bummer...
Anyway, "Two" is a great tune---
"I've got a really good heart I just can't catch a break. If I could I promise I'd treat you good."

Another Ryan Adams song that rocks--Everybody Knows.
"you come to me when I'm thinking like a cannon ball shooting out of a cannon."

16 Days, Whiskeytown.
Love the violin off the top and the richness of the lead singer's voice (who happens to be RYAN ADAMS--if I have my facts straight Whiskeytown band disbanded nearly 10 years ago).
"Can't sleep when the bed sheet fights it's way back to your side"

How about this "vibe?"
Son's Gonna Rise, Citizen Cope

Here's a good song to end on--my pastor did a sermon series around the holidays last year and each week he'd have the band end the service with this song...
"So take these words and sing out loud because everyone is forgiven now...'cause tonight's the night the world begins again."

Actually, since it's GNO---THIS is a great song to end with...
"gonna take your mama out all night..."
