    "I make you an offer you can't refuse"

    The Itsy Bitsy Spider song is absolutely hilarious. I am not sure if you have really watched all the McFerrin videos but that one is really funny. But you have to watch it all the way to the very end. It was unexpected and it even surprised Bobby which is why i think they included it in television show.

    By the way, Sightless Bird has been one of my favorite songs for a long time.

    LYRICS:
    I haven't been alone much lately I think.
    I've got to quiet down -
    enough of this runaround.
    I've got to get out of town.

    So, i sit alone in the power of thought,
    looking for an empty space,
    a livin' and breathin' place,
    a bit of sustain and grace.

    Out here I'll bid all my troubles bye
    and exchange graceful lilting melodies with a sightless bird.
    My unfettered spirit taking flight.
    Telling my secrets to unsighted friends.

    As I lay my back upon a cool moss tree,
    I'm looking out towards the sky.
    I can see clouds roll by.
    I can feel tension die.

    And I lay my head upon pillowed hands,
    a sightless bird sings to heal
    a weariness I may feel
    that sometimes may seem too real.

    Out here I'll bid all my troubles bye
    and exchange graceful lilting melodies with a sightless bird.
    My unfettered spirit taking flight,
    telling my secrets to unsighted friends.
    Babe,
    xoxo

      Top O'the morn' Ta' ya' also Babe The lyrics of that song are very nice. Reminds me of my teenage years, summer time, when I used to love going down by the ocean by myself, find a nice spot on the ground that had a soft grassy swell perfect to lay. Mostly I kept my eyes open to look up at the blue sky and follow the clouds floating by, watch and listen to the seagulls. Often times you would see eagles fly overhead. Then almost in a sleepy trance close my eyes to listen to the ocean waves 40 feet below. After a few hours of that I felt totally renewed, happy and peaceful. I'll never forget those peaceful times.

      I don't know how to put videos here so again I pass to you, if you want to. I'm sure you will like these songs. Very good singers all. Yourself being artistic and a music lover you've probably heard them all. Have a listen. Artist names are first. This is my kind of music!

      Bobby Bazini - cold cold heart
      Devine Brown - Lay It on the line (old but I love it)
      Maria Haukaas Storeng - Too Taboo
      Daddy Cool - eagle rock
      Charlie Winston - in your hands
