Stars and Dreamers

Don't you love a night when the sky is so clear you feel like you can touch the stars? When they appear to be twinkling? When the planets gleam with a certain crazy brightness and you're not really sure if it's a star or a planet?

The universe is so very vast, and yet, I like knowing that that when I look up in the sky on a crisp, clear night, that wherever YOU are, in this gigantic world, you're seeing the same amazing sight. OK, that might now be true if you lived in, say, Europe...what with the time difference and all, but, you get my point.

When life knocks you down, roll over and look at the stars.
~ Rumi

And so, on the nights when the stars are obscured, or on the nights when you feel beaten down, DREAM. Even if you can't see the stars you know they're there. And there is something utterly comforting about that.

I did a google search for songs with stars in them. There are literally hundreds. Do you know how many versions of "When the Stars Go Blue" there are? A lot. And then I couldn't decide which one to use? Because let's face, Don McLeans's "Vincent (Starry, Starry Night)" is what popped into my head first. So today, I take on the role of VJ (a la MTV) and present you three videos. Listen to them when you can; you'll like them.

Bonus Track because really, I love Bono and The Corrs.
