Music Post Numero Uno

You may find the title to this post a bit strange. But it is not. Because this post will be followed by Music Post Numero Dos which will say a good deal about me, in a strange way, actually I'm a little embarrassed about it, but I won't chicken out and not post it. In any case, on with this post.

I just want to give a blog shout out (blog out?) (and is "shout out" still in contemporary vocabulary?) (and can I just string along parenthetical statements one after the other?) to two good songs.

The first song is a wonderful pop-folk paean to life. The song is "Blessed" by Brett Dennen. In order to hear it, visit Dennen's myspace page and select the song. Dennen also has a bunch of youtube vids, but none are of Blessed. Also, for anyone interested, here's a link to the lyrics of the song.

I do have the YouTube vid for the second amazing song. It's "Galileo" by the Indigo Girls. This is simply a cool song, check out the lyrics here. I do wish the chorus was little stronger, but perhaps I'm nitpicking. And in any case, I'm glad I have an Indigo Girls song I can name-drop to look coolly sensitive (which I am) and at the same time give me indie-cred. Fly honeys Empowered feminists, be on the look out for me.
