    If I'm troubled, a song does not take it from my mind.  Songs can lift spirits a bit but they don't make problems disappear.

    I wish it weren't that way but I'm thinking lately it might be true for me.

    Right now, it's this one. Songs from my early childhood really do it for me. :)

    I always answer these questions with Joshua Radin and BNL songs. That's true, but I'll spice it up a bit for you.

    Listen at your own risk. This will be stuck in your head for days, leaving you with no choice but to cycle through it over and over again, instead of dwelling on less pleasant things.



    And this... I have no words for this. You're welcome.

  • This one relaxes me when I hear it on the radio...


    This one I listened to with my son in my truck the other day and it made us happy.

  • The first song was supposed to be "Easy" by BNL and it wouldn't work so now that song stresses me out, LoL!

    Music may not take my mind off my troubles but it so often lightens the intensity.

    The Pointer Sisters -- I love them. 
    At the age of 15 or so, I got to talk with them in their dressing room after a concert. They are incredibly nice women!! And FUNNY!! They remain one of my cherished memories. (I had done a school report on them and had told them I got an "A+" grade on the report - - they LOVED that! Ha!)

    A favorite of mine (though anything they sing I really like)
    "Cloudburst"

    I hope people listen if they haven't heard this song.

    Never heard this. It's different, I wouldn't have guessed Pointer Sisters.

    Speaking of Pointer Sisters, this has to be one of the funniest movie scenes ever, don't you think?

    I'm unsure if I've seen that movie - - I think it was a romantic comedy maybe and I get them mixed up with each other at times.
    But, yes, Grant a great sexy combo of anything to me.
