Alright, alright, I can't hold out anymore. I must say, I am disappointed in thegracegirl's lack of comment, but I must go on for the sake of the more faithful commenters. (Not really.)
I am currently listening to a CD that my best friend put together for me. I was so touched at the amount of time she put into it, making it look like, (if not better than), a CD you'd buy at the store. AND it has my most favorite songs on it!!! Plus a few I was not previously familiar with. It's so good to have a friend who knows what I like, plus what I WILL like-like R&B/Soul. It is because of this short friend that I bought Corinne Bailey Rae's album. Buy it. It's so good. If you don't like it, you should just stop reading now, as we have little in common; then again, my dearest husband of 11 years said it "wasn't his cup of tea", so I suppose we can work it out.
Several songs were in my head this gray day here in L.A. as I walked Rufus. So I sang them . . . loud. And I danced. And I'm the worst singer I have ever heard. I realized just how many things I do regardless of being just horrible at them-like sing. And dance. And play baseball. Run. Swim. Kayak. But mostly sing. I love to sing. It's a weird thing, having friends with amazing, amazing voices. I don't like to sing with them. The best-and yet unseen-singing friend I have who I always sing with is Gloria Estefan. I admire her to the moon--to infinity and beyond! Not only does she let me sing with her, she writes amazing songs (many in Spanish, which is extra special), and she's had a great marriage-to the same man-for many years. How many celebrities can you say that about?

I absolutely loved Corinne Bailey Rae's live performand of "Like a Star!" (I think you knew that right from the get go when I screamed through the whole thing at your house-ok so it was her, John Legend, and then as if that weren't good enough John Mayer). Can wait for our next road trip! Hey it's raining outside 1:32 p.m. I can almost hear you singing as you walk Rufito :) Te amo!
¡¡¡¡¡PERRRRRIIITO!!!!!
I love CRB music as well. She is amazing! Can I see you sing and dance sometime Jennifer? Or maybe even sing and dance WITH you! Ha! ha! ha!
