Fell in Love with the Avett Brothers

Riding home with a friend, you end up hearing new songs on the radio if they happen to like a different radio station than what you listen to in your own car. This friend had Sirius Radio and a station I’ve never heard before, that played in the background while we rode together.

The song that caught my ear was called, “Winter in My Heart” by a group called the Avett Brothers. It’s a simple little song, not complicated musically, but it was very touching. I think that is the hallmark of a great song – bringing forth an emotion with lyrics that touch your soul.

Old CDs

For years I have been buying music CDs for my “collection” and I just now realized that I have over 400 CDs and I never listen to any of them anymore. I honestly cannot remember the last time I took a CD out of its case and played it on a CD player. I know it has not been in my car for a very long time – I only lisen to the radio in my car.

It has probably been several yearssince I played CD but I have bought new ones as recently as Christmas. I have several CDs on the shelf that I bought and never even opened yet.

This is crazy! I’ll not be buying any more CDs. In fact, I should get rid of all of these that are taking up so much space in my living room.
