All Music-Lovers Welcome!

Music has played an important role in my life for as long as I can remember. Playing music, singing, listening to albums/CDs/MP3s, attending lots and lots of concerts...it's all good! I have nowhere to discuss it and am kind of tired of posting things to my facebook page (where I'm sure most of my friends are tired of seeing all my ramblings, too!). So...that lead me here. Who knows if anyone will see this and read it. I suppose I should have titled the blog "Just You and Me...Talking About Music Again" because it would be a lot more fun for me if other people talk about music with me! I love to get recommendations for great tunes...all genres. Please know, though...I'm not a fan of country music. You can still suggest songs for me to listen to and I promise to try 'em out but can't promise I'll like them if they're country! :) So, please join me...talk about music...

The Catalyst - Linkin Park (Official Music Video)

This is the newest video from Linkin Park from their upcoming album to be released in September. I like to share new songs w/my 7 yr old daughter especially since she actually like alt rock a lot and we listen to it together in the car frequently. Well, she has heard this one on the car radio but I can't share the video w/her as I find the creepiness-factor is pretty high! I did read that LP wanted to portray how people might spend their last minutes on earth if they knew the end was near. The end of the song--where the lyrics melt into "Lift me up...let me go...lift me up...let me go..." made me think, though, of my own end-of-life imagery and it was pretty cool. I imagined a person being lifted up towards the sky, resting on the hands of all the people who loved her and then her body turns to dust as the wind blows her away and the hands 'let go' of her. What do you think of this song?
