Deep Down Diggin It

This being a week of honoring the songwriting of Paul Simon, I thought I'd put in one of mine that reminds me melodically at least of a Simon-esque number.  Paul would have to be pretty ripped to start a song "There's a woman keeps her husband on a spit..."  but it does kind of relate to the girl in New York City who called herself the human trampoline.  And I also think this song relates to the themes of war, and trying to survive, and why we're in such a mess.  But I'll let you decide that for yourself...

Piece O' Cake

This dizzy ditty from ChalkZone is a good birthday song.  I will hunt up the ChalkZone version--a rarity by the wonderful Barry Bunce--and post it at a later date.  For now, we have this.

Duz My Baby Wanna Kiss LIVE

At laaaaaast....The BackBoners have a video I can put up on the SongMine!  This is the band I have worked and sung and sweated with for the past few years--Kahlil Sabbagh, Ginger Smith, Suzy Williams and me--and for some reason we have struggled to get a video that worked for us.  This one at least makes the cut.  This was probably the happiest moment of my birthday gig, being sung to by two paragons of pulchritude, Suzy Williams and Ginger Smith, with the wonderful Kahlil Sabbagh making the keyboards happen.

Pretty Little Baby Boy

This being my birthday week I'm focusing on happy stuff and this is one song that always makes me smile.  It's the one we sang to our lovely son Chester during his long months sailing in the amniotic sea. Does he have a reaction to it post partum?  I can't be sure.  But I sure do... 

Ahhh...Ahhh...Pretty little baby boy...
