And your love gives me strength enough
So have a little faith in me. – John Hiatt

What makes you angry?
Down and out
It can’t be helped but there’s a lot of it about.
With, without.

Out of the way, it’s a busy day
I’ve got things on my mind.
For the want of the price of tea and a slice
The old man died. – Pink Floyd

How do you feel when you think about your biggest mistake?
I look ahead to all the plans that we made
And the dreams that we had
I’m in a world that tries to take them away
Oh but I’m taking them back
Cause all of this time I' ve been just too blind to understand
What should matter to me

It’s what we believe - 3 Doors Down

Some words to live by
They love to tell you stay inside the lines
But something’s better on the other side – John Mayer

great job
Thank you for sharing.
Greg - In my opinion, any occasion is perfect for Radiohead. :)
Nahatsu - Thank you. You should try to make one, too!
radiohead...I loves me some radiohead!
I have got to have me a sit-down with some Radiohead. Maybe that will be my soundtrack for this Sunday at home. I just never got into them. I might not even know a song of theirs if I heard it. I have no idea how this happened. I hang out with Radiohead people, I am like other people who like them, and I the lyrics I have seen seem nicely, well, lyrical.
Thanks for the recommendation about Jewel and Steve Poltz. I will definitely check them out. I love finding new music!
