Hi Spring, How Are You?
Cause we don’t have to break our neck to get our kicks. – Daniel Johnston
Seeing as today is the first true day of spring in Boston I feel obliged to post the song that makes me feel spring a little bit more. I recommend playing it while outside, or at least with the curtains drawn, the windows open and with a slight gust swhirling about.
What I just wrote maybe somewhat corny but I’m pretty sure music’s function, at least in part, is to make you feel (anything) and smile. If music doesn’t, or has stopped doing that for you it may be time to reevaluate your relationship with music.
Enjoy. I am.
Van Morrison – Sweet Thing (1968)
And some Yip/Jump! music for good measure.
Daniel Johnston – Chord Organ Blues (1983)
