Musical Poetry

My phone rang this morning and when I answered it I didn't say, "Hello." Instead, I said, "I was JUST thinking about you this morning and missing you."

On the other end, they didn't say, "Hello," either. I heard this: "Dave Matthews. WHY is there never Dave on the blog? Do you hate Dave? Doesn't he strike you like he strikes me?!!!!"

Um. 
Um. 
Pause. 
Let me explain.

A lot of times a song might spark a blog post. Sometimes I go to my iTunes library or what I've liked on Pandora for just the right song. But sometimes I need help. The blog post content needs me to google it. For example: "songs about gratitude," or, "songs with the word adventure in it," or, "songs about traveling." You get the picture. Dave doesn't necessarily come up.

I do have some DMB on my playlists. OK, I have three songs:
  • You and Me
  • The Space Between
  • Where Are You Going

And thus, a challenge was thrown down.

MY FB quote of the day is from Rumi ~ let yourself become living poetry.

So, I searched for Dave quotes. I really loved the one above. I listened to the song, "Mercy" which I also loved. I decided this was the winning song of the day, which then required me to create a picture for the blog. (You think this stuff is easy?! LOL)

Dave's lyrics are living poetry.

So, my darling Candace, here's some Dave. 

You're welcome. 
xoxo

I'm not a huge DMB fan but I like him. I love DMB's 'Everyday' and think it would work very well for this blog. And because you know I'm anal and come armed with facts, here are some of the lyrics :)

Pick me up, love, from the bottom
Up onto the top, love, everyday
Pay no mind to taunts or advances
I'm gonna take my chances on everyday

Left to right
Up and up and inside out right
Good love fight for everyday
Jump in the mud, mud
Get your hands filthy, love
Give it up, love
Everyday

All you need is
All you want is
All you need is love.
All you need is
What you want is
All you need is love.
Oh...
