Jan. 5th, 2007 09:20 pmHI!! I hope everyone is having a great start to their weekend! It's cold & rainy & yucky here, a good weekend to lie around the house with a book or something. I went to the bookstore this afternoon to pick up a few new books for Harley and ended up getting the first two books in Stephen King's Dark Tower series for $4 each, so I guess that's what I'll be doing most of the next couple days. Also? I now have in my possession tickets to the Monster Truck Winter Nationals for next weekend (which is what we're doing for Davey's birthday party, going to see monster trucks) and tickets for the Sugarland/Little Big Town concert next month. YAY!!
I've got music to share, just because. The first one is the one I've been singing for several days now b/c it won't get out of my head. It's complete nonsense, but it's catchy and fun to sing. Naked Mole Rat Rap with Rufus and Ron Stoppable (from Kim Possible)
There's a new CMT movie with Toby Keith in it called Broken Bridges, and it was a really awesome movie. The actress that plays his daughter in the movie is Lindsay Haun, and in it she sings this song that's absolutely amazing and I've been meaning to share it for weeks now.
Broken by Lindsay Haun [FULL LYRICS]
When you're broken in a million little pieces / And you're tryin but you can't hold on anymore / Every tear falls down for a reason / Don't you stop believing in your self / When you're broken.
And then there's Lonestar. Lonestar is one of my all-time favorite artists. I love their music, and honestly, how can you not love a band that has a song called Women Rule the World? And I actually have two of their songs to share tonight.
The first is their latest, and I just love it b/c it's such an inspiring song.
Mountains [FULL LYRICS]
There are times in life when you gotta crawl, Lose your grip, trip an' fall / When you can't lean on no-one else:
That's when you find yourself / I've been around an' I've noticed that, Walkin's easy when the road is flat / Them danged ol' hills'll get you every time / Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains, So we could learn how to climb
And the other is one of my favorites, and I'm thinking it might be something I could be inspired to write to one of these days. (If I was a Jake/Emily shipper, I'd so use it to write something for them. But I'm not. *g*)
Not a Day Goes By [FULL LYRICS]
Got a picture of you I carry in my heart / Close my eyes to see it when the world gets dark / Got a memory of you I carry in my soul / I wrap it close around me when the nights get cold
AND
I still wait for the phone in the middle of the night / Thinkin' you might call me if your dreams don't turn out right
