...islands in the stream

I love discovering old school music from the '70s or '80s. I always seem stumble upon it when I need it most in my life... and I end up thinking how they hell did I go so long w/o knowing about this artist or song! The last time I felt this way was when I discovered Georgette Heyer. I randomly bought one of her books at Borders and the rest is history...

Anyways, my newest love is Ms Dolly Parton. Yes, she's a country singer and yes, she has a cheesey/tacky getup. I def. had my own stereotypes and opinions, but she's amazzzing! She's an incredible song writer and her songs are so timeless..

..I bet you didn't know she originally sang this before Ol' Dirty Bastard sampled it




another fave



and finally..



Another Oldie but Goodie, John Denver. I always loved him, but until recently I haven't been a very loyal fan. When my comp. crashed I waited a full three years before downloading his music again. Luckily, I was able to catch an episode of The Office, and it totally rekindled my love for John Denver

these guys are so adorable!
