AMA Song

by Phil Ochs

(A.M.A. = American Medical Association)

I didn't know I had this song until it popped up on my iPod's shuffle and I was pleasantly surprised.

I couldn't help but laugh because it seems that the "Healthcare Debate" has been going on for quite a long time and will probably continue for years to come because 1) The system will always try to screw us over and 2) We'll never be satisfied because we can always demand better (especially if we are being screwed). I feel silly for forgetting that the times don't really change very much.

Star Star

by The Frames

Today when I picked my brothers up from school something amazing happened the elder of my two brothers didn't change the music I had playing a single time during our long ride (after school traffic is the worst!). He is quick to find fault with the music I have on my iPod, he doesn't appreciate folk or opera (and I don't appreciate rap or hip hop ^_^), but today my iPod was left untouched until "Star Star" started playing and he picked it up to see the name of the song and the name of the band. Here's to other people liking what you listen to!

At Last

from "Breaker Morant"

performed by Edward Morant

Still feeling really crummy (cold+..."other".. -_-). I managed to make it to church today, though I only went to the last hour so I could play the piano during the relief society meeting. When I got home to wallow in the joys of being sick I decided to listen to my favorite record, the soundtrack to Breaker Morant. I love listening to Woodward's gorgeous voice ^_^

Here is Woodward performing in the film, he sings at around 2:52
