        Thanks, TG!
        I'm all cheered up now.

        A "bit" more uplifting. 😛 The last song from the album,

        Link to video

        [Verse 1]
        No matter how I try, I end up on the ground
        Another orphan waitin' in the lost-and-found
        Over and over, I take it on the chin
        Fists up to the world, fighting a fight I cannot win

        [Chorus]
        Help me lay my weapons down
        Help me give the love I feel
        Help me hold myself with kindness
        And help me heal
        Remove all of the false
        Show me what is real
        Oh Lord, help me heal

        [Verse 2]
        Yeah, I'm tough but I wasn't born this way
        I grew hard because I had to, carrying the weight
        I wanna let it go, I wanna set it free
        But everywhere I turn the fight follows me

        [Chorus]
        Help me lay my weapons down
        Help me give the love I feel
        Help me hold myself with kindness
        And help me heal
        Remove all of the false
        Show me what is real
        Oh Lord, help me heal

        [Chorus]
        Help me lay my weapons down
        Help me give the love I feel
        Help me hold myself with kindness
        And help me heal
        Remove all of the false
        Show me what is real
        Oh Lord, help me heal

          That was nice, thanks TG. Kind of melancholy and sad, but a beautiful song.

                Jess Williamson - Chasing Spirits - from Album "Time is Accidental". Good album but it is the type of style I like. LOL

                Link to video

                [Verse 1]
                Are my love songs lies now that the love is gone?
                There's the one about forever
                And loving you in a past life or whatever
                The difference between us
                Is when I sing it, I really mean it
                But I guess I wasn't listening
                'Cause you always had the same questions

                [Chorus 1]
                You've been chasing spirits
                And staying up all night
                You said if you don't rein it in
                You're shaving ten years off your life

                [Verse 2]
                I tried to come to you, but you didn't like the way I asked
                But there's nothing in L.A. for mе
                Just a lonely singer at the bеach
                I could start a garden with the landlord
                Something good and simple
                And worth staying in town for
                I was pulling cards while you jumped the cattle guard
                They say lovin's hard

                [Chorus 2]
                You've been chasing spirits
                And I'm still chasing them lights
                Now, who is a bigger mystic?
                And who's winning a bar fight?

                  "MAN OF THE PEOPLE is about the person who stands behind the disgraced politician, the religious leader that’s been caught in a sex scandal. The wife, the girlfriend, the husband, the partner, whoever is the family, the children—the people that stand behind these figures that are disgraceful. The collateral damage. I pity these people sometimes." - SW

                  Lyrics:
                  Trust, you know how to take it
                  Love, you know how to fake it

                  And I will be there beside you
                  The camera eye, the drug is just to be near you

                  Hey, well I can take rejection
                  Hey, what does it take to get your attention?
                  Cos you’re a man of the people
                  A man of the people
                  And I’m just part of the plan

                  I lie here like a dog
                  And think of all I would undo
                  Anyone would go
                  But I got nowhere to go to

                  And what is left of us?
                  Now there’s only the cinders
                  Ambition froze me out
                  Like a demonic winter

                  Hey, well I can take rejection
                  Hey, what does it take to get your attention?
                  Cos you’re a man of the people
                  A man of the people
                  And I’m just part of the plan

                  Hush now, the winter gets you
                  Hush now, the winter gets you down

                    Rumor has it that this guy is the next music director of the Chicago Symphony.

                    He's young...

                    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                              If you enjoy swing check out the band Asleep at the Wheel. They put out a lot great albums over the years. I really like their live albums - catches the spirit of swing as it should be.

                              Elbows up!

                                Funny that you should mention that. They were the musicians and accompanying singers on the album I showed above. 😊

                                        I "found" this album that they did with Willie Nelson. Very fun album.

                                          I think it's sadly telling that YouTube put this at the top of my recommended feed.

                                          Please love yourself.
