Songs to drive along to will be a thread for another day.  ;)

Day 17
A song from a genre you don't usually like

My dislike for country is pretty strong, so I'll keep it simple. I can't place why, but I really enjoy watching this video too...might need to watch it a couple more times. Bonus points if you can figure out what 90s blockbuster this was on a soundtrack for. 


Shania Twain - No One Needs to Know

"But it is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it America has failed to hear? It has failed to hear that the plight of the negro poor has worsened over the last twelve or fifteen years. It has failed to hear that the promises of freedom and justice have not been met. And it has failed to hear that large segments of white society are more concerned about tranquility and the status quo than about justice and humanity." - Martin Luther King, Jr

Day 18
A song that reminds you of your mortality

I went back and forth between this one and Johnny Cash's version of "We'll Meet Again".


Otis Redding - Sittin' On the Dock of the Bay

I don't like country music, which that KIND OF is. It's the closest thing I can get.

I'm not a huge rap fan, but I listen to enough rap that I can't claim to dislike the genre.

Day 19
A song about a person

I'm not going to go with a hard and fast rule that the person's name has to be in the song; you can usually tell in the lyrics of a song that someone else served as a muse for the songwriter. Such is the case with the one I chose, which also reminds me of my last ex...not really a good thing. LOL  :o


Ed Sheeran - Don't
