Norah Jones - What Am I To You?



Love Norah's voice! The topic of this song is quite sad! I always wonder why men are SO AFRAID of telling their gurl how they feel about them. Why do they do that, I wonder? What's the phobia around all that? Anyway...I'm someone who thinks that loving someone shouldn't have to be a "hush hush" kind of thing between the two. I think it just gets sweeter when both know how the other feels. It's a beautiful thing to love another and to be loved in return. It shouldn't have to be a guessing game; that's just pure torture! :-( So...don't forget to tell your Significant Other that you love them. It's music to the ears and soul. :-) Hope you enjoy the song.

Update: too funny: just after I posted this song, an article came out re: 'Six Ways To Say "I Love You"' and...I just realized...we're a mere month away from that "all-important" 'Valentine's Day' so...don't say that your memory hasn't been "jogged!" ;0) Have fun with it!

DIANA ROSS INTERVIEW 1991 - THE KISS!



I used to LOVE watching Arsenio Hall interview people. He was so cute and funny. And...watch what happens, here. I'll NEVER forgot this interview w/Diana Ross! He was just total "mush" w/her! ADORABLE!

Mariah Carey - I Want To Know What Love Is



'Foreigner' sang this song, back in 1984; one of my all-time favorite songs. I think Mariah did a beautiful job singing this. Hope you enjoy!

JJ Heller - What Love Really Means (Official Music Video)



And...now, I have shown you "what love is," referring back to the vid of Mariah Carey singing 'I Want To Know What Love Is.' :-) Hope you enjoy.

Lyrics:

He cries in the corner where nobody sees
He’s the kid with the story no one would believe
He prays every night, “Dear God won’t you please…
Could you send someone here who will love me?”

Who will love me for me
Not for what I have done or what I will become
Who will love me for me
‘Cause nobody has shown me what love
What love really means, what love really means

Her office is shrinking a little each day
She’s the woman whose husband has run away
She’ll go to the gym after working today
Maybe if she was thinner then he would’ve stayed
And she says…

Who’ll love me for me?
Not for what I have done or what I will become
Who will love me for me?
‘Cause nobody has shown me what love
What love really means, what love really means

He’s waiting to die as he sits all alone
He’s a man in a cell who regrets what he’s done
He utters a cry from the depths of his soul
“Oh Lord, forgive me, I want to go home”

Then he heard a voice somewhere deep inside
And it said, “I know you’ve murdered
And I know you’ve lied
And I have watched you suffer all of your life
And now that you’ll listen, I’ll tell you that I…”

I will love you for you
Not for what you have done or what you will become
I will love you for you

In My Arms - Plumb


I love this song and reminder that I will never be all alone...no matter how alone I feel on this earth, some days. Hope you enjoy.

Echoes - Part I - Pink Floyd



Come with me on a journey. The first time I heard this band, I was in my teens and...yes...with a bunch of stoners. :-( To make a long story short, I didn't care much for this band, then, because of the memories attached to them. It took me YEARS to be able to hear them w/out "going there," in my mind.

However, had I seen this band, back then, I wonder if I would have recognized how great of a band they really were and became. I know one thing: I just finished wiping the drool off of the table from having watched a young David Gilmour. Holy ** what a DOLL he was, back then, and...I found him to be very much the same, when I saw him on the DVD that PBS was playing, once upon a time! I could not believe the size of the band, for one, much less the light show. It's just AMAZING!

So...stay w/me and watch the 2nd part of this 'Echoes' recording, which, in and of itself, is just an AMAZING piece of historical rock footage so very well preserved! The venue is just incredible as is the amp power and stamina (struggling not to "go there"! lol!) of all of them. Hope you enjoy! I know I sure did! :-P

OK so...now, fast forward some 20-something years and check out what one of their AMAZING concerts used to look like! What I wouldn't have given to have gone to one of those! Wow! I could just sit, watch, and listen to David Gilmour play/sing for DAYS! That dude is one SEXY dude, STILL! Can't even watch him smile and I start to get weak! :-P LOL!

And then, perhaps, you'll see why I am SO THRILLED that they're talking about coming back, after this ending. Anyone coming w/me to a concert, someday?! :-D (Durn! I just saw, somewhere in the comments, that they're scheduled to tour, this year, already. I wonder if that is still true! I probably won't be able to make it, this year. :-(

Tom Jones & Cerys Matthews - Baby It's Cold Outside (Live)



Exactly! Enjoy! :-P (I always thought this was a cute song :-)
