Hey,
Well I'm sure you're all getting tired of these by now, but....it's another song!
Okay so Ani Difranco is one of my favorite singers ever, but I haven't really been able to find much of her music on the Internet before. Until today.
http://bis.midco.net/briannemag/mp3s/ani.htm Aha! It's an Ani Difranco download site.
It only has about twenty songs, but that's better than nothing. Also, I especially recommend "Both Hands". I find myself listening to it a lot lately.
Both Hands - Ani Difranco
both hands i am walking
out in the rain
and i am listening to the low moan
of the dial tone again
and i am getting
nowhere with you
and i can't let it go
and i can't get through...
the old woman behind the pink curtains
and the closed door
on the first floor
she's listening through the air shaft
to see how long our swan song can last
and both hands
now use both hands
oh, no don't close your eyes
i am writing
graffiti on your body
i am drawing the story of
how hard we tried
i am watching your chest rise and fall
like the tides of my life,
and the rest of it all
and your bones have been my bedframe
and your flesh has been my pillow
i am waiting for sleep
to offer up the deed
with both hands
in each other's shadows we grew less and less tall
and eventually our theories couldn't explain it all
and i'm recording our history now on the bedroom wall
and when we leave the landlord will come
and paint over it all
and i am walking
out in the rain
and i am listening to the low moan of the dial tone again
and i am getting nowhere with you
and i can't let it go
and i can't get through
so now use both hands
please use both hands
oh, no don't close your eyes
i am writing graffiti on your body
i am drawing the story of how hard we tried
hard we tried
how hard we tried

As usual, I hope you enjoy this.
Love,
Kalinka.

Sounds like a nice song...Music dosnt work on mine beacuse my computers just a big ol' flammer...like hopper and his flag!
Ok Kal I know You will get this first befor it comes on you blog so thats good. Now interpret this as you will but I decided to pick out a song and post it on every ones blog or comment. It took me forever to choose and you might already know it {I doubt it cause its from Wicked.}Anyway heres yours
I'm limeted, just look at me I'm limeted and just look at you, you can do all I couldn't do Kalinka. So now it's up to you for both of us so now its up to you. I'v heard it said that poeple come in to our lives for a reson bringing some thing wemust learn and we are led to those who help us most to grow if we let them. And we help in return. Well I don't know if I belive thats true but I know I'm who I am to day because I knew you. Like a comet pulled from orbit as it passes the sun like a stream that meets a bolder half way threw the woods. Who can say if I'v been changed for the beter. But because I knew you,I have been changed for good. It well may be that we will never meet again in this life time so let me say befor we part so much of me is made of what I learned from you. You'l be with me like a hand print on my heart and now what ever way our storys end. I know you have rewriten mine by being my friend. Like a ship blown from its morring by a wind off the sea. Like a sea droped by a skybird in a distant world. Who can say if I'v been changed for the better. But because I knew you, because I knew you I have been changed for good. And just to clear the air I ask forgivness to things Iv done you blame me for. But then I guess we know theres blame to share and none of it seems to matter anymore. Like a comet pulled from orbit as it passes the sun. Like a ship blown from its morring by a wind off the sea. Like a stream that meets a bolder half way threw the woods. Like a sea droped by a bird in a distant world.Who can say if I'v been changed for the better. I do belive I'v been changed for the better. And because I knew you, because I knew you, I have been changed for good.
