A Mending Shift

a bird sings, not because if has an answer to give, but because it has a song to sing … this is my song

O Night Divine (or not)

| December 23, 2008

Share I wanted to bless you with this beautiful rendition of one of my all time favorite Christmas songs, O Holy Night. It moved me so much that it brought tears to my eyes (in addition to killing a few cats and shattering our double pane windows). Enjoy and Merry Christmas! (You can thank or [...]

If This Song Ever Comes Home From Church…

| December 20, 2008

Share…with my kids saying, “Hey dad, guess what we sang in Youth Group?”, I will officially declare the church has gone off the deep end. (Thanks Jonathan for bringing back these God awful memories — twitch, twitch, convulse — and let me say I feel your haunting pain).  I love the crossed out 666 sign, [...]

ShareIf you like music and/or dance, you’ll really appreciate this. I laughed, I cried (well, not really), and it almost got me to dance: [The Evolution of Dance.com] P.S.

Not Sure Why…

| April 30, 2008

Share…I am posting this song, but I’ve always been a closet Neil Diamond fan (back off, you like him too) and when I saw him sing this song live, it resonated with me, though I am not sure why… “I Am,” I Said L.A.’s fine, the sun shines most the time And the feeling is [...]

Painting Egypt—The Reason Behind All This Time and Sand

| April 28, 2008

ShareThis is a shout out to my good buddy Dave who reminded me of this song today. My wife and I used to listen to it all the time but it has sat idle in the “non-played” cellar of my iPod. So I cranked it up again today on my way home from work and [...]
