Verge of a Miracle

the best of Texas music

in no particular order- ZZ Top

Willie Nelson

Stevie Ray Vaughan

Roy Orbison

Buddy Holly

just missed it-

Waylon Jennings

Lyle Lovett

George Strait

find 'em all on iTunes or at CD Warehouse

best artists of the past decade and probably this decade too.

maybe Communism wasn't all that bad...

another good song and great video from OK Go

OK Go just makes good music/great videos, that's all

OK Go - This Too Shall Pass from OK Go on Vimeo.

Frost/Beatles? apparently, and very cool

I want to go to there

Christmas songs = really weird lyrics, but this one really ignores the fact of how angry Mrs. Claus would be/is if indeed the big S is kissing mommies

because you were thinking about it

love the song, lyrics make absolutely no sense.

example of why I like Richard Buckner so much

thanks, Ken

for this little nugget of joy

listen to Big Bill Broonzy

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat show, Feist

YOU LOVE THIS, I DO

soon forget (I'd like to forget Jack Johnson... eh)

Be With You by Rich Mullins

Everybody each and all

We're gonna die eventually

It's no more or less our faults

Than it is our destiny

So now Lord I come to you

Asking only for Your grace

You know what I've put myself through

All those empty dreams I chased

And when my body lies in the ruins

Of the lies that nearly ruined me

Will You pick up the pieces

That were pure and true

And breathe Your life into them

And set them free?

And when You start this world over

Again from scratch

Will You make me anew

Out of the stuff that lasts?

Stuff that's purer than gold is

And clearer than glass could ever be

Can I be with You?

Can I be with You?

And everybody all and each

From the day that we are born

We have to learn to walk beneath

Those mercies by which we're drawn

And now we wrestle in the dark

With these angels that we can't see

We will move on although with scars

Oh Lord, move inside of me

And when my body lies in the ruins

Of the lies that nearly runied me

Will You pick up the pieces

That were pure and true

And breathe Your life into them

And set them free?

And when You blast this cosmos

To kingdom come

When those jagged-edged mountains

I love are gone

When the sky is crossed with the tears

Of a thousand falling suns

As they crash into the sea

Can I be with you?

Can I be with you?
