Music!

Here is a video of one of my favorite songwriters/singers - Heidi Talbot, singing her most famous song called If You Stay. Although she's not famous at all, she's a fantastic Celtic singer and songwriter, and her songs (the ones I've heard, anyhow) are all clean. I like to learn the singers and groups of my favorite genre of music, Celtic, and I now know every group from John Doyle (who wrote Caledonia) to Five Men and a Dog. And now, Heidi Talbot onstage with

  2. If you are like me and love Scotch, Irish, Welsh, etc. landscapes, I would recommend that you take a peek in the music header at the links Down By the Sally Gardens and Wild Mountain Thyme, which both have stunning photo slideshow accompaniments.

  3. 'if you stay' is a weird name.I dident listen to the song because nate is right here,telling me how much I've been on this blog and how I "Realy need to get off right now because dads gonna be home soon so you'd better get off or else he's gonna be mad."(which he's not)

  4. Before you listen to that one, take a listen to Slainte na nEanach under the music header - now that's Irish!!!

  5. Tell Nate to lighten up - I'm on this thing for about forty-five minutes a day and I'm not getting yelled at!

    PS - if he doesn't want to lighten up, he can yell at me instead. :)

  12. Rebekah and Amanda I did not Mean it in a mean way when I said to get off the blog.
    It was just because my Dad was coming home and wanted to Relax,so I thought maybe if Amanda was on the computer(not the blog in pacific)it would not give him a nice welcoming feeling.so I apoligize if it came out the wrong way.

    P.S.Rebekah,I will NEVER EVER yell at you! and being on a blog for more than 45 minutes a day is not a bad thing at all,it just matters what the timing is.and besides I am starting to like this blog too.

  16. Hey, I'll take the job. But why on earth do you want fancy writing on your walls? Expound.

    PS - if you don't know what expound is, ask me or use a dictionary.

  17. I think I'll add another advertisement:
    Wanted: Someone brave enough and foolish enough to come and match socks for my mom. She'll pay ten dollars for it, but I only need one more person. So, if you want to risk being buried by socks, apply!

  18. Rebekah-
    Sock matching is easy, count me in. I once was the king of matching socks (or queen).

    How are you feeling about the recital?

  19. don't mention it to me...
    By the way, I think there is some terrible spirit trying to interfere in my calling you. First Mom needs the phone, then my grandmother calls, and I didn't know how to put you on hold!
    I sent you a letter today, and you can come help, but if Heather wants to as well, she can. It will go faster!

  27. Sorry it's actually called "where the journey begins", so what you do is, you type "www.wherethejourneybegins.blogspot.com in the address bar. And it should take you to my blog and I fixed it, so you should be able to get to it.
