I've gone back to cleaning my own house after having gone through about six different cleaning ladies in a ten year span and not wanting to go through the travail of breaking in yet another, and deciding it's good exercise, to boot. Anyway, my IPOD makes it sail by. I've quite quite an eclectic mix on it, with a lot of piano music and classical (of course), some indie rock, folk and my most recent acquisition, Wacky's album (which I love). Anyway, it occurred to me today that certain songs remind of certain people.

You don't get Youtube!

It's Sarah MacLachlin singing Possession.

We get YouTube - but lately, more and more content on various sites is coming up as unavailable in Canada. Sites are locking stuff down to prevent copyright violation. Annoying!

Toby Keith's "As Good as I Once Was" makes me think of Larry...
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.

Ok - I've got to know. Why that song? Isn't it about a stalker?? I'm confused!

:sing:

Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
when you're perfect in every way.
I can't wait to look in the mirror
cause I get better loking each day.

To know me is to love me
I must be a hell of a man.
Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
but I'm doing the best that I can.

I used to have a girlfriend
but she just couldn't compete
with all of these love starved women
who keep clamoring at my feet.

Well I prob'ly could find me another
but I guess they're all in awe of me.
Who cares, I never get lonesome
cause I treasure my own company.

Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
when you're perfect in every way,
I can't wait to look in the mirror
cause I get better looking each day.

To know me is to love me
I must be a hell of a man.
Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
but I'm doing the best that I can.

I guess you could say I'm a loner,
a cowboy outlaw tough and proud.
I could have lots of friends if I want to
but then I wouldn't stand out from the crowd.

Some folks say that I'm egotistical.
Hell, I don't even know what that means.
I guess it has something to do with the way that I
fill out my skin tight blue jeans.

Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
when you're perfect in every way,
I can't wait to look in the mirror
cause I get better looking each day.

To know me is to love me
I must be a hell of a man.
Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
but I'm doing the best that I can.

We're doing the best that we can

Kathy, yep, a favorite of mine. I enjoy many types of music, including bluegrass and the old style country music/gospel. I grew up listening to it, thanks to my parents.

Thanks for thinking of me!

It wasn't for the words. It's a Sarah thing. Had I had more time, I would have picked a better suited one. There's something about her that reminds me of you.

Here's a better one. Song for a Winter's Night. ;-)

I guess it makes sense that Sarah's music would be blocked from your Youtube access - Canada protecting its own.

I was actually able to go and listen to a different video - but the one you linked was blocked. Bizarre.

If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead
This one reminds me of so many ex-girlfriends. Sparks was one of my fave bands.
