Music has had a way of marking some turning points in my life. Good and bad they are reminders for me. I cannot to this day listen to Deacon's Blues without remembering my brother and the day he died. Then there is that song, On the Street Where you Live; makes me remember my gramps and I singing loudly off key in his workshop. A old Boz Scaggs song was playing the first time I fell in love...I think it was city lights..Green Day with Good Riddance was on when I left my boyfriend just the right note too. Now the music is playing in my head and I am dancing to it with someone who can hear it too.

Alright let me open up a little here since everyone else did.
In another 3 weeks (July 21), my father, the most important man in my life will be dead one year. I sang a few songs at his funeral...and they still have the ability to reduce me to nothing. It never fails that when I hear them I burst into tears.
One Sweet Day ~ Mariah Carey
Go Rest High ~ Vince Gill
Funny how music can make you feel so much all at one time. Occassionaly, I will hear a song on the radio that seems to voice what I am thinking about at that moment, and I realize that I am not the only one in this world feelng this way.
On another note...I am not much of a country music fan, but I have found this group that i adore. Just bought the CD and I can't listen to it enough. I highly recommend them.
She Daisy ~ CD entitled The Whole Shebang
Shameless, flagrant advertisement here, but usually I am not so inclined!

SimplySouthern,
I'm very sorry to hear of the loss of your father. To lose a loving parent has to be one of lifes most difficult moments. It was a year ago July 4th, that I lost my father, my best friend. A man that put his wife and children above everything else in the world. Even himself.
To this day, I cannot imagine that it is something I will ever completely get over. At the oddest times and places, something will remind me of him and I will just stop and think of him, tears filling my eyes.
The song that has emotional meaning to me at this time, is 'The Church in the Wildwood'. The original 1930s Carter Family version. It was one of the songs at my dad's funeral and when it was playing my big strong uncle, a hard nosed old rancher, started crying. This song was one of my Grandmothers favorite's and really hit him hard.
I haven't listened to this song in over a year, but today may be the day....

MM~
Thank you for the kind words...today, above all I needed them. I think that sometimes the songs and yes, even the crying helps me. Nothing wrong with the fond memories...even if they do sting a little.

He who laughs last . . .
SS,
Sorry for the anniversary but maybe a story from my old man's sendoff will create a laugh. My dad passed away 16 years ago. He was a simple guy who did not want any fuss and preferred to be cremated. However, he suspected his in-laws of plotting a large church funeral so he took a poison pill defense to his grave. He instructed in his will that if there was to be a church service, that he wanted to be sent off to the sounds of Amazing Grace by Tennesee Ernie Ford and my dad specifically identified the record in his collection.
Of course, we ended up with a large service and it became time to play the record. Unbeknownst to everyone, my old man had scratched the daylights out of the track so when they tried to play it it would run about 8 seconds and then skip. The flustered priest finally gave up after about thirty tries (and I believe a word or two priests ought not utter) and pulled the plug on that turkey.
I can not hear that song without a smile coming over my face thinking about that sonofagun.

Scarlett and Merlin -
My good thoughts go out to you both. Although we never forget our loved ones, time does heal the pain *although of course it never goes away entirely*. My father died too .. almost 23 years ago now .. I know how sad you feel. He used to paint beautiful pictures.
Although I don't remember any music, I remember the strong smell of roses. There were roses everywhere. Every time I smell a rose now I think of his funeral. But only now there is not much pain.
Time Heals.
Luv, Isabella xx

I can't think you all enough for the kind words and shared sentiments.
Ron ~ That was a hilarious story. Sounds like a man who knew how to get the last laugh.
Izzy~ Each passing day does get a little easier, but I know the hurt never truly goes away. Thank you for caring and sharing.

Southern & Isabella.
Thank you both for the kind thoughts and words. The sharing of your own memories is greatly appreciated and has provided me with comfort. I'm sure as time passes the loss will be less painful, although his absence will always be missed.

"Iris" makes me think of this guy I want. I just want you to know who I am....
The music from the movie Braveheart and the song Angel by Sarah McLachlan return me to some very emotional times- the loss of loved ones in my life. Stairway To Heaven also reminds me of a friend who died from alcohol poisoning at the age of 18.
