Sometimes songs you know end up playing over and over in your head, often times just certain lines or just the chorus. These are called "earworms". This week, my main earworm has been the wonderful "Something Beautiful" by Tracy Bonham (you know, the woman who that did the song "Mother, Mother" back in the 90s). I'd like to share it with you, if you don't mind. ;-)
Yep. It was raining earlier here in Wisconsin. (It's snowing now, but never mind that.) It's also Monday, which is the perfect opportunity to post some Carpenters. :-D
"Rainy Days And Mondays"
Live from the BBC - September 21, 1971
Hopefully the weather is lovely wherever you are. :-)
A friend of mine posted this on Facebook recently and I couldn't help but laugh myself silly. This is great!! (Oh, and pay attention to the album covers.) I give you...

The waterspiral weekly Updates And Such post will be made within the hour. :-)
Before I make my regular Thursday post, I wanted to share a couple of videos with you. I hope you all don't mind. ;-)
First: Today I decided to listen to a compilation I had made for myself a few months back called "Songs Of Happy Vol. One". As the title suggests, these are all songs that make me very happy for one reason or another. This song, track 10 on the disc, makes me so incredibly happy that I sometimes find myself wiping tears. It's so wonderful! Maybe it will make you happy, too. :-)
I give you.... Caravan Girl by Goldfrapp
Second: Although I'd been meaning to look into this group for a long while now, it took a certain lovely person's suggestion to finally get me to do it. I just heard this song for the first time moments ago, and... Wow... (I admit it: Tears were escaping.) It's so absolutely gorgeous and I simply cannot wait until I have the opportunity to listen properly. To everything. Hopefully it won't be long before I can. In the meantime...
This Mortal Coil - Song To The Siren
