I mean, I’m all for LSD-esque colors (Ratatat’s videos) but the blacked-out figures creep me out.

Tori Amos: Ribbons Undone
Ben Folds: Gracie

In case you are interested NPR has a concert of thiers on the all songs considered podcast. You can so totally feel the energy.

I have a similar boy, who will turn 20 in a few days. He was even a blur when I tried to take photos of him on college tours.

At 31, you’ve not only gotten your financial priorities in order, but your heart is in the right place as well. You, your beautiful girls and your “blurry boy” (LOL!) are truly blessed!

As I’ve gotten older (28 now, w/ two boys and a girl on the way) I’ve found that pop/rock music is less and less relevant to me. It’s sad in a way, because I used to love listening to music almost all the time.

I love both of those songs as well! I wonder if Trent is a country music fan, or at least willing to listen it. Another song that comes to mind is “In my daughter’s eyes” by Martina Mcbride.

Congratulations, according to eastern cultures you are now a complete man of an esteemed status. A very happy wedded life and children are your most valuable assets and you are amongst the richest of the rich. Enjoy :) You are so very lucky that you have a home and not a house.

“Alright” by Darius Rucker
Cause I’ve got a roof over my head,
the woman I love laying in my bed
And it’s alright, alright
I’ve got shoes under my feet
Forever in her eyes staring back at me
And it’s alright, alright
And I’ve got all I need
And it’s alright by me

“Chicken Fried” by Zac Brown Band
Cold beer on a Friday night
A pair of jeans that fit just right
And the radio up
Well I`ve seen the sunrise
See the love in my woman`s eyes
Feel the touch of a precious child
And know a mother`s love

Excellent song about a child adventuring out on their own.

I too have found that a large portion of my music library goes unplayed recently. Musicianship trumps lyrics, except for concept albums, I still love a good story.

That’s a great song. I think Trent would really like it!

I ran across it on Lala.com about a month ago and fell in love and ever since, it’s been my husband’s theme song. He sings it to our daughter, and our female pupster, and to me. :)

It’s a bit older, but talks about all those things that matter most.
