A Great Song!

So, I'm sitting in front of my computer, reading the Muncie Star Press on-line edition, listening to tunes on my Windows Media Player. And, all of a sudden, this song that I haven't heard in a while comes on...and, it's a great song!

"By Your Side" by Sade. It's an incredible love song! My favorite version is from the Lovers Live album. You know, sometimes a song just hits you and you say, "Man, that's a freakin' great song!" That's how it goes with Sade. She's got a wonderful voice...and she surrounds herself with wonderful musicians. Ndugu Chancellor...Yes, Leon "Ndugu" Chancellor was the first person to turn my listening ears on to Sade. During a master class he was teaching, he kept going on and on about Sade. So, I checked her out and I wasn't disappointed. I encourage you to take a listen if you're not familiar with her work.

Of course, the song that played right before was "Suspicious Minds" by Elvis! Another great song! And, right now, "Hard Headed Woman" by Elvis is playing...This morning is just a morning of great music!

No, Zappa's "Hot Plate Heaven at the Green Hotel" isn't on my WMP. But, you and I both know I enjoy the musical stylings of Mr. Zappa.
