Today’s is a double posting. I have nothing better to do since I am getting over a nasty ear infection with vertigo added into the mix. For my latest poem, read my previous post. The purpose of this blurb is to respond to my favorite Celt’s latest tag
.
The tag:
The Rules: List five songs you are currently loving. It doesn’t matter what genre they are from, whether they have words, or even if they’re any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying right now. Post these instructions, the artists, and the songs in your blog. Then tag five friends to see what they’re listening to.
My results:
1. High On You by Survivor. (Heard it again after a long time and digging it.)
2. Revolutions of the Heart by Howard Jones. (Remeber him? The 80′s? “No One is to Blame?” Well, he has a new album and that’s the title cut…pretty good for an aging pop crooner going in a new direction.)
3. My Petition by Jill Scott. (Song she wrote for George Bush. Its very melancholy and old-school R&B. I find it particularly comforting on days when the war is more discouraging than usual.)
4. Take it Easy by Jackson Browne. (He has a new acoustic album. Yay! Have I ever mentioned that he’s my secret boyfriend?)
5. We Belong Together by Mariah Carey. (Ok, never really was much of a fan of hers, but her latest effort kicks some serious behind. A nice mix of old school R&B which I love with some jazz and a touch of hip hop.)
I’m going to tag: TenTwelve, M_india, Mariahjane, Runs4fun123, and Cassildra.

I linked over to your site from another where I saw you mentioned loving Tolkein and Lewis…..two of my favorites. I remember my fourth grade teacher reading “The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe” aloud to our class. I’ve read it along with the other Narnia chronicles many times since (you get so much out of them as you are older). Then when I got here I saw your post….I LOVE “High on You”. Classic tune.

1.) Photograph~ Nickelback
2.) Fallen~ Staind
3.) If Everyone Cared~Nickelback (just got their newest cd recently, hehe)
