    Sooooo much has happened to music over the last decades and a half that I can hardly keep up with all the genres. I have heard this song over the years and never even knew who did it. But it is one of those that just kept getting under my skin when I heard it. I finally looked it up when I kept hearing it used for a documentary.

    Just love it! It isn't my favorite but it certainly is a contender for anything since 2000.


    This is another group with a sound that really caught my ear. I don't like everything they do but I just love some of their stuff; parts of it. :)


    Another favorite of mine that came along was Beirut. I think he does some fantastically creative work. His work tends to be a mix of modern alternative and Eastern European, with a dash of Mariachi added.

    First released in 1984, this incredibly beautiful song hit the charts again in 2001, thanks to Shrek.

    Jackie Evancho is among the very best gifted voices on this planet.

    How about this song.

    Not by her though.

    I met little Jackie back when she was just 12 years old - about the time she did that video. So funny, she is such a powerhouse on stage. But in person she was very shy. I managed to get her to laugh just when they took our photo. Great shot. :)

    I didn't know it but I guess I'm a big Coldplay fan! I often know the music but have no idea who does it. This is a big one. I love their stuff. I really love the song I posted in the op.

    I was a HUGE fan of The Moody Blues 20 years before I knew it. :D

    And I Fink U Freeky has got to be considered a classic. It is definitely freaky!



    A woman sent me this video as her way of saying that she enjoyed our first date. I asked my nephew if that means she likes me, or she wants to eat me?
