Probably more than a few years of crop revenue could bring in!

Gosh, money can be both a curse and a blessing. Not sure that a sudden change of monetary fortune would be as beneficial as we would hope.

Maybe I just have this romantic idea of peaceful, simple rural living that doesn't actually exist.

Oh well I tend to overthink everything.

you know if it was such a nice life we would all still be doing it.
everything comes with curses and blessings. Yea it's way more complicated now, but
you know warm jackets at a store is alot better than freezing for 3 weeks trying to kill a wolf to take his skin to wear haha.

Life's a trip that's for sure.
Take the path with more heart haha

Intense rock girls are just wow.

This one is just pure musical emotion.. not intense just powerful.

plus it has a weird personal meaning for me.









Ok I gotta leave before I clog up the entire thread..

But..

David Bowie singing about death.

yea.

a reply to: Reverbs

lol, you're probably right

BTW, how do I get your name up there in the credits for co-authoring this thread with me?

Such a good thread....some great music and some music I have never heard...Thanks OP for starting it..


Dead Can Dance - The Host of Seraphim
Enough said, just listen.



The Animals - House of the Rising Sun
To me this version of this song is one of the greatest most powerful things ever recorded




The Cure - The Same Deep Water
For personal reasons

Hey you.

Yea well, the energy is intense mousey.. I knew it was coming but.. eekk lol.

You've got some great music if I remember correct.

a reply to: Reverbs

I'll be back later.. need to go run or something lol.

This song was trying to calm me down but didn't work.

I had a dream within a dream one time and in my search for what happened, because it wa well... way too intense to be a dream..

my search terms were like Jesus Blue pearl, and mandela and stuff like that..

Youtube gave me this, and it actually made part of my dream make sense. But now it's like oh wow what do I do with that?

I'm not religious, but if religious-y things bug anybody just skip it haha.

I agree, there is some really great music in here! And thank you for your own great contributions. I loved them all.

a reply to: Mousygretchen

Really liked the Blue October song!

It still exits, but it is fading. So far the biggest problem is just keeping food on the table and the bills paid. Neighbors are more like extended family, and respect of property and space is high on the list for keeping peace, right next to generosity and sharing.

We are watching ourselves getting boxed in, and we know that our days are numbered. Just as well I guess. Getting too old to comfortably manage the old homestead, and young folk prefer cities, bright lights, and sidewalks.

Now I am feeling a bit of melancholia mixed with a little ennui, a bit like this.

Maybe we all are romantics.

a reply to: Mousygretchen

Loved your choices. How To Save A Life reminded of this song. I know everyone is not into Christian music, but I love all music that speaks to me.

a reply to: NightSkyeB4Dawn


Thanks

Yeah....um. I'm glad someone enjoyed my posts

a reply to: NightSkyeB4Dawn

Aww, somehow your post reminded me of another great song!
(Oops- I posted the wrong link! This song has a hint of cheese in it, just a warning. But so goood.)


And now for something completely different:

a reply to: InTheLight

Maybe we all are romantics.

I was born without that genetic marker.

I hate romantic movies, novels, and songs; even as a child.

I guess growing up poor and in the country, made my dose of reality a bit larger than for most. Love, honesty, compassion, generosity, kindness, are high on my list, romance, not so much.

Nice song though.

a reply to: Mousygretchen

Yep, we did!

a reply to: NightSkyeB4Dawn

lol, I am definitely a romantic!!!

But I hate those movies. Excepting the rare one that somehow conveys the real deal.

a reply to: opethPA

wow that dead can dance song.. And of course house of the rising sun damn.. Ok on to number 3.

Still working my way through but now I'm going out of order.




we must count this one.
