On a Sunday Night
Tonight, I drank a glass of wine, photocopied ONE THOUSAND worship songs from church (the ones I don't know how to play, but want to), and made a playlist. So many of the songs made me cry. People have told me that I like really sad songs. But in my opinion, I like beautiful songs. Sometimes I say to myself, "If a song doesn't move something inside you, what's the point?" That's basically what I think. There should be an emotional, or thoughtful response to hearing a good piece of music. Even if it doesn't have words. Otherwise, it's just noise. I loved making a playlist. It was so fun. I will be adding to it when I discover new things. I hope all you in blogland enjoy it. If you think of some music that you think I would like, comment about it. I am always looking for new favorites, and sometimes it's difficult to be "in-the-know" about new music that comes out. Tell me all your thoughts. Music is so powerful.

I totally agree, I love that God created music and that it can create so much emotion in us.
I love your thoughts here. I personally always feel very out of the music loop. On the other hand, I'm getting very exposed to Ol Dixie Land Jazz right now and am enjoying that... it's often humorous, which is fun too. Bare Naked Ladies silliness reminds me of those old Jazz tunes. I am making a list of the playlist tunes you have up that I really love, thanks for sorting through the vast unknown for me! haha I always suspect I would enjoy music much more if I was only exposed to the right kind, as in... stuff I loved! I like songs with meaning too, and folksy stuff. Probably lots of your taste would overlap for me, thus the list of ideas I'm going to kipe. :) I know I meant to respond to this differently, oh well...
