Monday... Sun day

 

Good morning

 

"Get in the car!"

 

Power... Fantastic.

Music matters. Music heals.

30 years ago, this past week Meat Loaf released "Bat Out of Hell 2", it was the last album my brother ever bought. It came out the same day that Prince released the "Hits/The B-Sides". I bought that the same day. We spent that day cranking all four of those CDs.

Meat Loaf and Prince, and unlikely combination.

My brother died a couple weeks later.

And those releases, those CDs, were part of my healing.

30 years later I get nostalgic about that healing. And realize I'm still healing.

Love to all my friends. All my family. Love to all who open their hearts and minds to the power of music. 

And I still own those CDs.  

So should you.

See my bed's made up at night 'Cause in my dreams I roam...

Monday music...

 

 

Freedom?

 

Happy Prince Day!

 

Let's play!

 

WAKE UP - YOU'RE THE STAR!

Where is this movie???

 

Stand Up And Be Strong. Monday Song Part 2.

 

More re-invention... 

This time Prince does Soul Asylum.
And he makes it his own.

I love Prince.  Anyone who knows me knows that.
I also love Soul Asylum.  Maybe I should be living in Minneapolis? Haha.

Prince kills it here, but I do prefer the original though.

I've got history with this song.  The original version came out summer 2006. It was a time that the world thought Soul Asylum was long over.  And they came back.  With the best album in their career; "The Silver Lining".
And I was looking for one myself.  And so many of those songs hit me hard.  And hit home, and my heart.  Two other albums that year were equally as powerful. "Stadium Arcadium" from Red Hot Chili Peppers and "3121" from Prince. 
And here's Prince bringing his version of a song that really kicked me, and it's kicking me again.
Thank you Dave, and thank you Prince.
