The blues are not songs to make you feel bad--the blues are songs that make it known you aren't alone---er something like that.

Gary Glitter-Rock and Roll Part 2 Hey Song (from last tour)

Someone said they had a trivia question for me and asked what the name of this song is. I said "hey", they laughed and said "No", so I said "lets gets people going at a Seahawks game song" Rolling Eyes Laughing

Dan you will be missed by many and out of respect for you my flag is flying at 1/2 mast.

"Washington Fire Chief Killed in Northern California Wildfire"

"It's not yet known exactly what happened Saturday, when Dan Packer, a Pierce County fire chief, went missing and is now presumed dead in a California wildfire."

Here's a meaningful song. In fact, here is a song that ruined my life. It was this song that gave me hope that I too could have a moment of clarity, a spiritual moment of bliss where everything clicks into place and the beauty of the world appears to you in all it's brilliance, and you burst into tears in awe and wonder at it. A feeling like you're comin' home to a place you've never been before.

F---ing song gives me chills even now. Amazing.

And here's another one with that same theme of spiritual awakening. Peter Gabriel. Solsbury Hill.

Where's MY awakening!? Where is MY transcendental moment of enlightenment!? Aaah, screw it, my life blows...
