I keep in the right direction step by step

I keep on moving, step by step
Through the sunshine, through what’s left
In my life, I need a hand to hold
Friends and family, they’re my gold
Sometimes I fear the night, it’s true
Afraid of silence, afraid of who
I might be without arms to lean
But I wake each day, chase the dream
Oh, I fin…Read More

Sweet devotion
You are everything I ever wanted
You hello Say to me
You never say that to me friend
Sweet devotion
I don’t know how to live
Without you
I need you every hour my friend
Do you love me friend?
Let me hear yes

Give me a cup of your silence

Spare me some love, Fidelis—
the way a beggar spares a coin

or rain spares one roof
while drowning the village.
Give me what you have left

who called it home.
I do not ask for the moon.

This is a heavy song, folks. But since it was Fathers Day, it kinda fits the narrative. Talk to one another while there is time. This one talks for itself. Get ready to possibly cry.

“I wasn’t there that morning
When my father passed away
I didn’t get to tell…Read More

My fave band of all time. There is nostalgia and then there are The Smiths….

Pound for pound one of my favorite Dylan songs, the storytelling is chef’s kiss.

“The next day was hanging day the sky was overcast and black
Big Jim lay covered up killed by a penknife in the back
And Rosemary on the gallows she didn’t even blink
The hanging…Read More

as a child I thought this was catchy now as an adult I feel this in my bones

man his songs hit different

Can never go wrong with Mary J. Blige

“Yeah, we’re runnin’ a little bit hot tonight
I can barely see the road from the heat comin’ off of it
Ah, you reach down, between my legs and ease the seat back.”

David Lee Roth

Music fact: Steve Vai plays guitar on this one check out that solo..

“The blind king has secrets dark and morose
He’d like it if we were like him
All the dark days spent in the maze
Have made a new man of him.”

Lemmy Kilmister

Huge Motörhead fan here..

“You know I’m born to lose, and gambling’s for fools,
But that’s the way I like it baby,
I don’t wanna live forever,
And don’t forget the joker!”

Lemmy Kilmister

There’s just something about the Irish. As a fellow Celt, their grasp of humanity shatters like a shotgun against heart bone.

I love that no one needed to sing to get this music. she plays Metallica perfect on the piano

J.J. Burton and I couldn’t stop listening to the “I Hear Black” album.

“Bless me with that special pain
That makes a man feel right as rain.”

Bobby “Blitz” Ellsworth
