Awesome Song..These Guys Rock

Pause the playlist to the right though, der ;-0

One of my favorite bands says....

"The point of all this livin'
  is the dying still to come
  and I could be forgiven
  but I just won't, I just won't"

-"Old Familiar Steam" by The Old 97's

Great Song!

Jason Gray did a concert at our church last summer. He is awesome and I love this song!

Peace Lyrics
Artist(Band):Weezer

More and more I can't say no,
So afraid of letting go.
If there's something I can grab,
You can bet I'll pay the tab.

Counting all the flowers,
waste the precious hours,
I need to find some peace.

All these problems on my mind,
make it hard for me to think.
There is no way I can stop,
my poor brain is gonna pop.

And I don't have a purpose
scattered on the surface,
I need to find some peace.

woah-oh-oh-oh. (repeated)

And all the broken tethers,
we can bring together,
I need to find some peace.

woah-oh-oh-oh. (repeated)

I need to find some peace. x 2
woah-oh-oh-oh.

Bring the Joy!

Another cute Weezer video......Don't you wish you were here right about now (minus the monkey kisses)? BRRR!!!!

Fun Stuff

Ok, we are nerds, I know......but it is "our thing" ;-). Chris and I exchanged presents already and one of mine was the new Weezer CD Raditude. I love it. They are just fun, not explicit or offensive, just fun. Here is the video from the single on the CD. It's just goofy fun in Weezerville:

Heaven is the face

Yesterday I spent a good part of the day chatting with a woman. She was a lovely woman, very energetic, smiled a lot, and loved talking about her teenager daughter. If I didn't know a little bit about this woman I would have never guessed that she lost her youngest daughter to cancer just three years ago.

Ironically on my way home I heard the new Steven Curtis Chapman song "Heaven is the face" and listening to the lyrics I let go and let the tears flow.

The two thoughts I had running through my head were 1) How God's grace and hope shined through this woman and Steven in his song and 2) How I don't know if I could bare losing my daughter like those two did and still be able to smile.

Like many moments in my life it was a healthy dose of perspective that whatever God has planned He will be there with me every step of the way and His grace will shine through. That's why that woman smiled, she has hope that her little girl is waiting for her.

Here's the song. It's amazing. Stop the music at the bottom and grab a tissue:

Yes!

I cannot stand still and listen to this new Weezer single, and neither can my family. Their lyrics are just fun too, maybe a drift of meaning hear and there but not too much to think about.

I love it! Yes!!!!
