a bright spot

Thank you all for the thoughts and prayers. Dad isn't out of the woods but there has been some improvement. Not in a mindset to blog so I limit myself to the brevity of Facebook and to my American Idol chat with awesome friends, but this was a bright spot in a crappy couple of months...

The video for Taylor Hicks' new single:

'Seven Mile Breakdown'

Glad to hear that there was some improvement, however little. Just remember there are those of us out here wishing you the best.

So good to hear from you sis. Wishing the best for your dad.

Big hugs for you and Chicklet and Dad, sweetie! Even a little improvement is an improvement, and reason to rejoice.

Have to admit I'm not crazy about this song at first listen. Taylor dwells too much on the minor seventh blues note, which is an overused cliche in blues music and, to my ears, a bit grating after a while. I thought there were too many TLLBs packed into the video, as well.

There is, however, no doubt that this is the kind of music Taylor should have been singing all along. Also, the piano intro is hot!

Take care sweetie!
