Kenny Chesney - Somewhere With You (Walmart Soundcheck)



A moment can change everything.
Helped tell a guy in his fifties that he has cancer today.
The fear that registered.
I've been on the family side.
That initial gut wrenching moment of fuck me.
The thought that this can't happen to my family.
Looking around and trying to keep the threads of your emotions intact.
Barely keeping your head above water.
Denial, bargaining, hoping.
So when you tell someone they have cancer.
There is nothing to say.
The only thing left to do is feel.
Illness changes more than the patient.
It changes the whole family.


I don't want to waste anything.
I don't want a day to go by with words unspoken.
Because a moment...well, it changes everything.

Learned a lot



This song doesn't come out until his Jan 25 2011 release of Mission Bell.
As always. I love his stuff.
Everyone I tell about him loves his sound.
No matter what age there is an appeciation of Amos Lee.

We've all been in this place.
Mourning what could have been.
Who we could have been.
Breaking down.
Rebuilding who we are now.
In the end we've all learned a lot.
Only Amos Lee can make the sound of heartbreak.

Breaking Laces - Here To Stay




I think Breaking Laces has a Brett Dennen sound.
Simplistic bridge and lyrics.
I first heard their song Hold my Head- catchy and will run through your head all
day.
But I want something that's here to stay.
Breaking laces doesn't have the best voices but their lyrics ring true.
"You're lightening in a bottle baby"
Be here to stay.



Nobody chooses to be a freak. Most people don't realize they're a freak until it's way to late to change it. No matter how much of a freak you end up being, chances are there's still someone out there for you. Unless of course, they've already moved on. Because when it comes to love, even freaks can't wait forever.

Dan Auerbach "Trouble Weighs A Ton" Live on SIRIUS XMU



A friend of mine loves the Black Keys like a bad addiction. Dan Auerbach put out a solo CD and I think I may like this even more. The things I feel when I listen to this song.
Beautiful.

Trouble weighs a ton is an understatement.
I keep looking around thinking something has to give.
Life weighs a ton right now. It's the little things that I hope go my way and never do.
The things that I let hurt repeatedly.
The belief in goodness that isn't really there.
My continued hope in others that is jaded with time.
I want to take off the trouble and give it away.
I want to believe in something and someone.

You could be better than that





- this song makes me laugh


We meet thousands of people in our lives. How come when you meet one it can change everything?

electric feel




Don't mistake the way you feel for someone else for the way they feel about you.

Nickelback - How You Remind Me (Video)




I believe in second chances.
Hurting by disregard is my fault.
I'm stopping it.
It's my fault for letting you in.
I'll be wiser.
I won't keep doing this.

Big Jet Plane



Do you ever have one of those days where you think "I should have just stayed in bed"? I should have rolled over and pulled the covers over my head. To say the least- I should have stayed in bed today.

let it be



I heard this song a while back as some background music on a tv show. I liked it so much I had to find it. His voice is just right and makes me want to curl up. Listen.







Good luck today Daddy!
