Hi everybody, It's been a while! Think it's time for a little playlist. Any suggestions for Advent? I'll keep my ears and eyes open too. I was inspired by this David Byrne song. Brings tears to my eyes. There is so much beauty here, right? "In these troubled times I still can see..." Seems like a great Advent piece. Nick Drake for All Saints'? And great Cat Power version of What the World Needs Now. Peace, Ann One Fine Day by David Byrne and Brian Eno
