His lyrics just always make me think, which is something I love about music. And the lyrics...ahhhh so good! For example...
Searching all my days just to find you
I'm not sure who I'm looking for
I'll know it
When I see you
Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom
Staying up all night just to write
A love song for no one.
[Love Song For No One]
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want
That's why we're waiting
Waiting on the world to change.
[Waiting On The World To Change]
Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken
Even as the eyes are closing
Do it with a heart wide open
Say what you need to say.
[Say]
Friends, lovers, or nothing
There can only be one
Friends, lovers, or nothing
We'll never be the in between.
[Friends, Lovers, or Nothing - NEW!]
Belief is a beautiful armor
But makes for the heaviest sword
Like punching under water
You never can hit who you're trying for.
I'm not sure who I'm looking for
I'll know it
When I see you
Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom
Staying up all night just to write
A love song for no one.
[Love Song For No One]
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want
That's why we're waiting
Waiting on the world to change.
[Waiting On The World To Change]
Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken
Even as the eyes are closing
Do it with a heart wide open
Say what you need to say.
[Say]
Friends, lovers, or nothing
There can only be one
Friends, lovers, or nothing
We'll never be the in between.
[Friends, Lovers, or Nothing - NEW!]
Belief is a beautiful armor
But makes for the heaviest sword
Like punching under water
You never can hit who you're trying for.

Annnnnnd just for good measure one of my favorite things he has every said on stage :)Well this week his latest CD, Battle Studies, came out and until someone (thanks Mom!!) ships it to Colombia, I am settling for listening to tidbits from his website and his amazing performance on Letterman last night! If nothing else, listen to the first song - Heartbreak Warfare. LOVE.
Enjoy & happy Friday!

Have you seen this? I've probably shown it to you but if not, prepare yourself for extreme jealousy.

AMAZING! You're right :) I am jealous...
After 5 hours of tax work, lunch at McDonald's (Kill me!) Actually it wasn't too bad I had the yogurt parfait-it is just the actual going thru a fast food drive thru that gives me the willies!, Next a 4 hour ethics class (you thought teaching 8A was bad!)An hour and half Annual company meeting and a 2hour parent meeting for 9th grade EVHS basketball.(I could conduct the meeting in my sleep-I have seen the video 3 time now!)I came home watched my taped version of "Survivor" and ended my night by flipping over to Letterman at 11:35 p.m. to catch John Mayer. It was fantastic!
