Sounds

Whoa!  Great choices.  This sounds redundant, but music “rocks!”  The other day I was in one of my “indigo funks” and had to pick up my daughter from school.  I put on a CD of various and sundry upbeat tunes - everything from Billy Preston to Donna Summer - and after a few songs I was “transported.”  Ta for “kcidybom's playlist extraordinaire.”

If my life had a soundtrack, kd would be the backbone of it.  Thanks, and Hallelujah.

You got me all gaga with the Lee Michaels post.
Check out Mr. Hendrix w/ Lee on the Hammon B3.
Oops! I'm showing my age.

holy shit albert… have you been reading my diary?

good goddess almighty and then you ended with KD and Hallelujah!!!! Hallelujah!!! Halleluhah!!!! Hall-lay-luuuuu-yaaaa!!!!

hallelujah!!  here's two more versions – follow the inspiration link on this post for rufus wainwright's version and the link in the comment below that post too for one of leonard's versions. 

and albert– I have been emotionally raw listening to the across the universe soundtrack, particularly this song, “because”,  over and over and over.  I bought it for jordan and we listened to it on the way to utah and sang along to it together. 

and omg!! that can't stop vid is CRAZY.  I loved the song, but never saw the vid.  whoa! 

bestest and wonderfuller are my two of my favoritist words, you know. 

I am going to come back to this.  My husband has the flu with a pounding a headache and just ended up in here on the couch and I don't think he wants to listen to music right now. I did get to listen to Patti Smith. I love that song and love the red hot chili peppers and I love love love that song by queen. I coming back later to hear the rest. I can't wait kcidy.

Music has so much power, when you think about it.  Can anything match it in terms of influencing mood?  I really enjoyed your playlist.

isn't the word “playlist” cool? 

music is life written in notes

Albert, over the last several years, I've gotten away from listening to music except at festivals. Not sure why. The radio being ripped out of my car, and then the demise of my car, was the beginning I think. I suspect Netflix is a huge culprit. But, like so much synchronicty that happens around Zaadz, the last few days I've been getting back in touch with Sting's varied oeuvre and remembering how great it is to listen to music. How much it can transform  and inform moods. And then I come here. I love, love, love this post. A window into you, at least at this moment. Hope you don't mind if I steal this idea for a blog post. It's such a great one. Thanks for sharing all this great music. How strange to be reminded how absolutely incredible the Beatles are. How weird to have forgotten … Across the Universe is only a few movies away in my Netflix queue.

I rather enjoyed that.
Albert I always have fun when I come to visit.

hey!  how many of us here are also on netflix?  isn't there a way to share movie suggestions on netflix.  I have never thought to actually explore their way to make netflix friends until now, but I would LOVE to see DLil's queue and many others, for good movie suggestions. 

nicole, why aren’t we on each other’s friends list yet? all possibilities in a single note indeed and in a single friend. ;-)

and albert– I think playlist and joyful noise belong in a set. what else?

I like that we can share playlists and joyful noises with each other on zgaiaz.

Dawn, I'm not sure I'm ready to reveal my Netflix list – that might be just a bit too personal – LOL : ) But if you want to combine the Netflix and music worlds into one yummy tidbit, I recently watched “Once” about two musician in Ireland (in fact, one of the songs from the movie just won an Academy Award). I LOVED this movie so that would be one of my suggestions. “Across the Universe” arrived yesterday so I'm looking forward to getting cozy with that this weekend : )
