Make You Feel My Love *Cover*

(download)

My first recording with the new microphone!  I do not claim to own any of the rights to this song, it's a cover of Bob Dylan's "Make You Feel My Love".  I just absolutely love the song and though it's been covered so many times I figured I could still do it better. Mwahaha.  lol

 

I apologize in advance for the screw ups in my recording, but I'm still learning! :) Enjoy! ~v

We always seem to be looking for who’s going to do what for us next…

What we should focus on, as a country, is what we can do for each other.

Let’s try to think more locally.  Mom & Pop stores and such.  It might be a bit more expensive, but wouldn’t it be nicer to feed someone’s dream and give back to the community as opposed to feeding an overgrown, unsustainable monster that could crash and burn us all?

Anyone ever seen “Little Shop of Horrors”?

FEED ME, SEYMOUR! FEEED MEEEEE!

Anyway… That’s my goal, to do more shopping at small businesses.  Vote with your dollar.  Spend at the businesses that you want to support.

Terrible Dreams...

Woke up this morning to a terrible feeling

Loss of my heart and no way of healing

This kind of pain is the fear of the unknown

Impending terror and nowhere to go

One day you’ll grow up and not be within my care

Leaving my arms though I’ll want to be there

I fear for you what I’ve seen in others

I fear that I’m an incompetent mother

I woke with my palms pressed against my chest

My heart pounding and my breathing a mess

You were lying there so peaceful and sleeping

I picked you up and I began weeping

“What’s wrong?” You asked with half woken eyes

“I love you so much” was my first reply.

I had a dream that I’d lost you completely,

One of many that’s been haunting me lately,

This time you lived while in others you died,

But you weren’t you, there was a monster inside

A monster that grew and took over with each dose

Eventually to destroy one that I loved most

You cried out in horror at the crime that you had done

I stepped in to help but she was too far gone

I woke up crying and calling out for my mother

But she was not there

Only you

No other

I love you, my child, and I fear for the worst.

This world is so harsh, unforgiving, and cold.

I hope I can teach you how to survive it first

Before you forget everything you’ve been told…

There are people who’ve seen what I have seen in my dreams

They’ve lived it for real, they have more right to fear

Those people still lived and still pushed for survival

Just the hint I had suffered, I’d crack, so it seems

I don’t have the strength to lose what I hold dear

I’d bury my head to get away from it all…

I pray to God to take these dreams from me,

I can’t handle them, can’t bare them, you see…

My life has been hard but could be so much worse..
I thank Him for what I have, first and foremost.

I hope that one day I’ll look back and I’ll smile…

To think I was afraid to fight for what’s worthwhile…  

The Boondock Bettie Theme Song!

(download)

During the First Annual Boondock Bettie Awards - http://www.twitvid.com/4FC6D, I won "Most likely to write a song about this" and so... I wrote a song about it :)

I give you... The Boondock Bettie Theme Song! Woot!

This song is meant for fun, please don't take it too seriously! LOL


Enjoy!

On one fine day in 2009
I got to see one of the best movies of all time
The Boondock Saints: All Saints Day
Starring Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery
Little did I know this was just the beginning
Before too long I was a Boondock Bettie

Did Cheryl even know that when she hacked into our lives
She would bring together this group
A group of common mind
We got Ali B, straight blogging everyday
Typing what we're all thinking but nobody wants to say
We got Drea, so wild, with a husband and a child but
all she wants for Christmas is a bit of Norman Reedus

Chorus

Marybeth is so sweet, always happy with her tweets,
she's got the cutest little kittens that I've ever seen,
Donna keeps the buzz going for days
Mireille lets us know what movie's to see
Chelsea has the magic hands, can she build it? Yes she can,
Amanda is the go go dancer, she doesn't have monkey toes.
Grania is Heather, she's addicted to Youtube,
if there's something you want to see she's got it on cue
Wendy, the original Boondock babe,
She keeps us updated each and every day

We're not a "fan club"
We back up our Saints
If you fuck with us it's a huge fucking mistake

Chorus
