I've always had a weakness for Cristy and the message is good: Taking each day as it comes

My favorite song of all time. I like that this is not only about romantic love but about love as a life force and the section that comes late in the song is very reminiscent of the civil rights movement. MLK spoke often about the power of love.

As we walk
Down the street
We don't care who we see
Or who we meet
Don't need to run
No need to hide
Because we've got something
Burning inside
We've got Love Power
It's the greatest power of them all....

That always makes me think of the marchers in the movement. Great video too...

The whole album makes me happy and always lifts my mood. Great for loud singing along when alone in the car.

Shake Your Rump by Beastie Boys.



Really, all of Paul's Boutique puts me in a good mood. It's just so damn fun.

Fun-loving nonsense song.....notice Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Costello in this version.
