Music Monday – “Everything is better with some cows around/Living in town sometimes brings me down/Let me bestow this western blessing and share what I have found/May you always have cows around”

According to last.fm, this was my most played song of the summer. Having camped with a farming/ranching family on one side and a guy who was not only a farmer/rancher but a cattle buyer at a livestock exchange on our other side, I can understand why! 😉 “Cows Around” – Corb Lund

Music Monday – “Nothing lasts forever/And your best efforts don’t always pay/Sometimes you get sick/And you don’t get better/That’s when life is short/Even in its longest days”

I’ve always loved John Mellencamp but mostly as a rocker. So this song off his latest album caught me a bit by surprise (though I do hear echoes of “My Best Was Never Good Enough” by Bruce Springsteen on his “Ghost of Tom Joad” album.) “Longest Days” – John Mellencamp
