Earth Day, Every Day

First of all, happy Earth Day!!! Hope you all sent some loving vibes today and everyday. Every day should be Earth Day.

But anyway, before I go on a huge rant about that, I'll keep this short and sweet.

The song we have for Music Monday this week is a special one for me. I love singing this song, although the way that I sing it is slightly different than how they sing it in the video. I learned it through campfires, and my favorite way to sing it is at a campfire or intimate musical gathering and have everyone keep a beat by tapping their chest and joining in for the "hey-ya"'s.

Skip ahead to 0:34:40 to hear it. Head's up - here's a little (or a lot) of hippie love for ya.

I Feel Home

Today I've been listening to the song I Feel Home by O.A.R. It seemed to be a good pick for todays Music Monday, as it reminds me of summer (it's coming!) and being with friends, familiar faces and places.

Yesterday I went to the dance recital at the university I just recently graduated from. It was so amazing to see my dancer friends and to watch the routines. Listening to this song today made me think of them, what a wonderful group of people! It always feels like home when you get together with your dance community, or whatever little community you have grown in.

This isn't a new song, but it's a good one! This was the only video of the recording I could find. Hope you enjoy it!


Lots of lovin',

Where The Ocean Meets the Greenery




Wahoo the first Music Monday!
It was a challenge deciding on what to feature first... there are so many musical things I love. And there's so many musicians I love here in Halifax! In the end, I decided to go with local homegirl Halifax-based storyteller, poet, and musician Tanya Davis.
