For those of you who haven't discovered Amos Lee, then you're missing out. www.amoslee.com His latest CD, Supply and Demand, is underrated. Or maybe he's just not getting the attention he deserves. I never hear of anyone giving him a bad review.So I find myself sitting outside on my deck anticipating a nice meal tonight at Texas de Brazil. We are celebrating my wife's birthday. I'm listening to Amos Lee on my headphones. Surprisingly, what was once a hot muggy day has turned out to be a pleasant, breezy afternoon. You can probably tell that there is nothing much on my mind. Maybe that is the way it should be for a summer Sunday afternoon.
As I conclude this worthless blog, Amos is singing his song Wind.
"Saturday night, my head is spinnin'. I wonder who's heart I've been sinning for. Cold rain blows on my window. Soft sand gone from my pillow. One more step that I've been taking, Yes and one more, I don't need no more breaking up. All the red lights, how they are Burning down the highway. I remember when the wind Had blown my way. But the wind blew down my line. Yeah, the wind, blew down my line. Man on the street, each day I'm passing. A small bite to eat is all he's been asking for. Oh, but cold steps is all he's been yeilding. Oh, and now I know that empty feeling. Yeah, the wind blew down my line Yeah, the wind blew down my line. Yeah, the wind blew down my line.
Cool.
