I am, yet again, a thief. I’ve stolen this meme from…hmmm…someone. I’ve seen it all over the blogosphere recently and took note of it whilst visiting Joan or Teeni or Moonbeam…sorry gals, can’t remember where I saw it first so you all get mention. Anywho…the deal-e-o is that you are supposed to post a song that really gets to you. You know, the one song that just yanks those damn heart strings and makes you ache inside…causes you to reflect…or just plain makes you writhe on the the floor in sobs. Yeah, right, like a song could do that. Okay…on with the game. As usual, besides the fact that I swiped this, I am not tagging, and I’m not following the rules because I cannot simply post just ONE song. There are so many songs out there that evoke my emotions but I’ve managed to narrow it down to two. And here you go…
Rob Thomas – Little Wonders
Yes, the video is hokey, but I couldn’t find a live version, so deal. Besides, who doesn’t want to look at the fine Mr. Thomas? The first few lines of this song get me every time…
Let it go
Let it roll right off your shoulder
Don’t you know
The hardest part is over
Let it in
Let your clarity define you
In the end
You will only just remember how it feels
Whew. Okay, deep breath.
And then there’s this one:
Marc Cohn – Walk Through the World
Likewise, I was hoping to find a live version of this song as I prefer it performed as such. Damn this song. This song actually gives me chills as soon as I hear it and by the end I’m pretty much guaranteed to be crying. Oy. I’m such a hopeless romantic that the simple line, “Walk through this world with me” says it all. If I EVER get to see Mr. Cohn perform this live I will probably be asked to remove myself from the venue due to my uncontrollable blubbering.
Wow, that was tough listening to two of my pullers-of-the-heart-strings songs back to back.
Play along if you’d like. I stole it, so you can, too. I know…I’m a bad influence.
Two Lazy Dogs 
Wow – the Little Wonders one is a great one. I also like that although it is a heart string puller, it’s also encouraging. And yeah, Rob Thomas is a cutie too, huh?
Marc Cohn isn’t too hard on the eyes either. 😉 Oh yes, and the song – ahem, the song choice is a great one too. Great lyrics and music. It’s romantic. I love it!
Thanks for the linky love so I could see your choices! And I love that you are a bad influence. LOL. 🙂
Hi Teeni,
Yes, “Little Wonders” is definitely an encouraging song…I think that’s why it gets to me…the music just speaks volumes.
And the Marc Cohn song speaks for itself, does it not? *sigh*
You are so welcome for the linky love. I like to give my girls as much props as I can!
I like that song though I just heard it for the first time! And that daughter of yours that I am still working my family to go to new York!what part you in? You can email that if you want! I am Dr
Hey Kaylee,
Yeah, not many people have heard that song…it was in the movie “Meet the Robinsons” – that’s how I first heard it.
We are in Western NY…I can email you details.
Tell that and I wasn’t finished I am determined to pull this off!
It would be great to see you!!
Would you please?
*sneaks in and steals meme*
Hey, how are ya!
What? Oh this, behind my back…it’s nothing!
😆
Hey cowgal!
Awwww…you’re not stealing…what’s mine is yours! Have fun!
