I don't think I'll ever get tired of it, and it never fails to send a chill down my spine... I'm not *really* affected, emotionally, by songs in general, but this is one of the most powerful songs I've ever heard. I think it's mostly because it will always remind me of a girl I worked with at my last job, who ended up becoming a pretty good friend, who was killed by a drunk driver (who walked away from the crash just fine... yeah, that's justice). Anyway, mostly for that reason, this song just punches me in the gut every time I hear it. I mentioned this before, but if you have never heard Heather Nova's album, "Oyster", you should definitely beg, borrow, buy, or steal it... preferably buy it, but whatever it takes. To me, it ranks right up there with Patty Griffin's "Living With Ghosts," Tori Amos' "Little Earthquakes", and Philo's (the record label) Singer-Songwriter Retreat series. It's probably one of the best overall CDs of singing & songwriting that I own. In other words... I highly recommend it. :) She also has a new CD out, called Siren, which is pretty good, too, but I don't think it's as good as Oyster. - ----Walking Higher----- - -----by Heather Nova------ I carry you with me, a ghost inside and in these shattered arms, you're still alive. I carry you with me, a holy shrine and dogs and angels follow right behind. And could I be walking higher, could I be right beside her? The bones they buried, will feed the trees but every word you ever spoke is still in me. And could I be walking higher, could I be right beside her? And I will feel for you in the music, and I will send that river home. And I will cry for you sometimes, when the night is down. And I raise my head up to the mountains, talk to the birds and I fly 'cause the spirit lives on, when the body dies. And could I be walking higher, could I be right beside her? Could I be walking higher Could I be right beside her? - ---------- Kevin Pease kbpease@boston.crosswinds.net (ICQ UIN: 3106063) (AOL Instant Messenger: kbpease) http://www.crosswinds.net/boston/~kbpease "Saw things so much clearer, once you were in my rearview mirror..." ---(Pearl Jam)--- ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 10 Sep 1998 17:33:25 -0700 From: moonsong@ix.netcom.com (Charlie, Cob & the GoA) Subject: Re: ET: Re: Pain....hope and loneliness.... >> Ewwwwwwwwwww.

Jamie...Thanks for the thing you sent me, I haven't exactly downloaded it yet cuz it'll take awhile, but thanks anyway. :) Doc...You're worrying me too. I mean you used to be this mellow, well-thought-out, contemplating guy. Now you're like a hyper 15 year old at a concert. Anyway, go back to normal and get going on that applause-awards thing. Kevin...Yer a cool guy. :) Keep it up with the great ideas and opinions, and keep buggin' em! Oh and get some new knees.

I've been in love twice before and am currently in love with another guy. I could never say "I love(d) this one more..." because I loved them all differently..we meshed in different ways. Another thing I believe and didn't bring up is that I believe that if you do actually fall in love..a part of you will always love that person in some form or another. Anyways... Theresa, did you ever write me back?

It just seems like something I could've >written in my perspective... All right... if it's one that seems to be written from my perspective... I think I'd have to go with "It Ain't Easy Being Me" by Chris Knight... various reasons. :) It Ain't Easy Being Me (by Chris Knight) There ought to be a town somewhere, Named for how I feel Yeah I could be the Mayor down there And say welcome to Sorryville It wouldn't be on a map nowhere You might say that it don't exist But if you make enough wrong turns It'd be hard to miss... There ought to be a bridge somewhere They could dedicate to me I'd probably come to the ceremony With a can of gasoline Walk on over to the other side And there I'd light a match And sit and stare through the smoke and flames Wondering how I'm gonna get back... Why do I do the things I do Was I born this way am I a self-made fool I shoot the lights and I curse the dark I need your love but I break your heart And I know the words that'll bring you back But I don't say nothing as I watch you pack I had to work to be the jerk I've come to be It ain't easy being me... Ought to be a side show act for freaks like me Yeah I could be the star of the show With my name on the marquee In a room with a big red button that says "Danger do not touch" And twice a day I'd mash it down And you could watch me self-destruct... Why do I do the things I do Was I born this way am I a self-made fool I shoot the lights and I curse the dark I need your love but I break your heart And I know the words that'll bring you back But I don't say nothing as I watch you pack I had to work to be the jerk I've come to be It ain't easy being me... It ain't easy being me... - ---------- Kevin Pease kbpease@boston.crosswinds.net (ICQ UIN: 3106063) (AOL Instant Messenger: kbpease) http://www.crosswinds.net/boston/~kbpease "Saw things so much clearer, once you were in my rearview mirror..." ---(Pearl Jam)--- ------------------------------ End of eda-thoughts-digest V1 #190 **********************************
