Music Monday – “Mother/You had me/But I never had you/I wanted you so bad/You didn’t want me.”

John Lennon’s raw, heartbreaking lament about accepting the abandonment and early loss of his mother as well as his absentee father. Uhm, Happy Mother’s Day? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmhRm_92L_8 “Mother” –

Music Monday – “Christians have their hymns and pages/Hava nagila’s for the Jews/Baptists have the Rock of Ages/Atheists just sing the blues”

A co-worker sent me this knowing I’d get a kick out of it… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wogta8alHiU “Atheists Don’t Have No Songs” – Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers

Music Monday – “C’mon, C’mon”

Here’s a clip of the band we went to see last Friday night. The name of the song isn’t given and I feel like my 17 year old

Music Monday – “Every four way stop that I approached/Hey, I was on the right/When I drove past your house again/Hey, like I always do/I think about the one thing in my life that didn’t come true”

An entire hour and a half long Fred Eaglesmith concert, taped in Holland? Man, I love the Internet for so many reasons…it eliminates time, distance and provides access

Music Monday – “A monster, a monster/I’ve turned into a monster/A monster, a monster/And it keeps getting stronger”

Continuing with the Wrestlemania XXX theme I started yesterday, here’s a really cool video package about the rise of the underdog, Daniel Bryan, from wrestling in high school

Music Monday – “Sleep pretty darling/Do not cry/And I will sing/A lullabye”

One of my and Sasha’s go-to bedtime songs… “Golden Slumbers” – Paul McCartney

Music Monday – “Begosh and begorra/Ev’ry Irish son and daughter/Ev’ry good old Irish name and his relation”

Thanks to community radio for bringing this song to my awareness a couple days ago. Useless trivia: the song doesn’t mention “Murphy” in the long list of Irish

Music Monday – “There’s a light/And I can see it in your eyes/There’s a memory of/The way you used to be”

Hard to believe but yesterday marks one year since the most recent NDP Leadership convention where Ryan Meili lost to the eventual winner, Cam Broten, by just 44
