The StevieNicks. Songwriters that are magic to me today
Stevie Nicks. Best fucking song writer of all time. the bar is set high.
Bear wtih my learning curve, at some point, I will be able to tie this mish mash of thoughts and passions into some sense of order.
Today - The Stevie Nod goes to Worried shoes
by Daniel Johnston. Made semi sorta kinda known by the weirdly amazaballs voice of Karen O...
I took my lucky break and I broke it in two
Put on my worried shoes
My worried shoes
And my shoes took me so many miles and they never wore out
My worried shoes
My worried shoes
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
My worried shoes
I made a mistake and I never forgot
I tied knots in the laces of
My worried shoes
And with every step that I'd take I'd remember my mistake
As I marched further and further away
In my worried shoes
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
My worried shoes
And my shoes took me down a crooked path
Away from all welcome mats
My worried shoes
And then one day I looked around and I found the sun shining down
And I took off my worried shoes
And the feet broke free
I didn't need to wear
Then I knew the difference between worrying and caring
'Cause I've got a lot of walking to do
And I don't want to wear
My worried shoes

My first attempt at a blog. go easy. be kind. actually, let’s try that more often. go easy. be kind.
‘I am a sucker fo a good song writer - I envy those gifted of being able to convey so deeply and simply (sometimes) their feelings. So with that said, my musical taste ranges from flannel lesiban to weird nordic electronica, but I live in Portland so flannel wins over the Norse everytime.
Portland is a character in my life, i think most Portlanders share that same, sometimes estrange relationship to our weird city. So I offer up one of my own pics, capturing the weirdness and love.
