Here’s another gem of a tune from Corrine Bailey Rae for your Monday morning…
Put Your Records On Corinne Bailey Rae lyrics
Three little birds, sat on my window.
And they told me I don’t need to worry.
Summer came like cinnamon
So sweet,
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete.
Maybe sometimes, we’ve got it wrong, but it’s alright
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same
Oh, don’t you hesitate.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
Blue as the sky, sunburnt and lonely,
Sipping tea in the bar by the roadside,
(just relax, just relax)
Don’t you let those other boys fool you,
Got to love that afro hair do.
Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it’s alright
The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change.
Don’t you think it’s strange?
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
‘Twas more than I could take, pity for pity’s sake
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realise, that you don’t even have to try any longer?
Do what you want to.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
Oh, you’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow

I love the growl in her voice. It takes someone with a very monotone voice to sing like that. Love it a lot! :)

There is a link at the top of this page (look for the black tabs across the top). There is also a link in the “join us” box in the sidebar. Or you can just click here. ;)
I am on my way to a concert, but I will be back online later tonight. :)>-

Charms – I’d love to help you work through some of these issues you mentioned. Why don’t you post a topic in the forums and we’ll go from there…. :)

Oh – and I just wanted to mention – I do have a forum area that hasn’t been used for a while (everyone seems to like the main blog), but feel free to post in there. Might be easier to thread conversations in the forums than in the post comments. :)
Maybe if a few of us start new threads in the forums, the traffic will pick back up in there. It used to be pretty popular about a year ago, but then the blog took off and everyone quit posting in the forums and started commenting on the blog topics. :-??
