Music Monday! Paradise City

What better way to get back in to Music Monday ? Some G~n~R of course. (old G~n~R...old stuff.....) Playin' a song beggin' to go home. I have been feeling like going home.  Not necessarily the home I grew up in. But where I grew most, where I started my own home. Ah well, home is where you make it right?  So, home is where I am with my family. Home can be anywhere. I have just been wanting my home to be located somewhere else. Either way, this is a rockin' tune to get through a Monday after a completely gorgeous weekend. With more snow on the horizon, we all could use a little G~n~R to get through. Take me down to the paradise city Where the grass is green And the girls are pretty Oh, won't you please take me home? Yeah, yeah

Music Monday! Kumm A Klele - Wish I was there in Paradise.

I was in paradise back in 1993 when this song came out, newly married and in The Caribbean living with my new hubby. I didn't really know this song until my oldest son played it from his Ipod, just a few months ago. I asked right away about it and he couldn't remember the name of it, who sang it, etc. It was left there, until I asked him to make me a CD of some of the songs from his Ipod that I liked, and he put this on it. (I almost typed make me a tape...oh boy hard to get out of the 80's sometimes) I have found this song so calming and soothing, that I listen to it when I start to feel overwhelmed, stresses, or just need a pick me up. Today, and probably many times over the next few weeks, I will need this song as I prepare for The Big Love Fest . I need lots of stock, and been working and working to try to make stuff. Then, I gotta price and package everything. Then I gotta decide how to display everything. Kumm A Klele AND the weather just stinks today. ...
