BABY.

Baby, baby, baby. Oooo, baby-baby. Baby, baby, I'm taken with the notion...
To say it 300 times!

Some people say not to use it in songs unless you absolutely have to, whatheheck ever that means.

"I ABSOLUTELY need to say baby here! Like, there's no other endearing term or possible rhyme!"

Some folks take themselves seriouslier(sic!) than they should. :)~

You know what?
I started writing songs SPECIFICALLY so I could legitimately say baby over, and over, and over, and over. Ok, that's not entirely true; but I think it's great fun, and has been in a jillion songs that I like, and dang it, it's mine to use and abuse, too.

Baby blue, baby pink, baby diapers, baby stink
Baby come, baby go, baby please, baby don't
Baby to the beat, baby to the end
Baby takes the heat, baby be my friend
Baby love you, hate you too; baby, can't get enough of you
Baby on a beach, baby on a bed
Baby blue eyes, baby just said...
Baby, gotta leave; baby, one more night
Baby can't do that, baby don't fight
Maybe, baby I can't make another rhyme
But maybe I'll say baby 20 more times
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby.

There.
I feel better.
Hope someone's unhappy; glad it's not ME!

(Baby, it's NOT cold outside! HAhahahaha!)

Ear "Candy"(?)

The John Henrys, "Sweet as the Grain" 2008; Alt/County; WHFR collection; Canada picking up on one of America's better exports... music.
Caitlin Cary and Thad Cockrell,"Begonias"2005 (WHFR collection); this is a really sweet, lovely compilation. They sound great together, and the songs I've been able to really listen to are good. Nice, old school sound; dreamy. Love his band on both CD's I have. (The other is "Warmth and Beauty", also from my WHFR collection.)
Steve Earl; Trancendental Blues... ok, this must be long-lost sonic sibling of mine. LOVE this. These are melodies that could have emereged on planet Robin; gonna suck this thing up for a while! It's a tablesetting of hillbilly folk on a rock and roll tablecloth with blues fringe. Was a little caught off guard by the f*bomb prelude to Galway Girl, but whatever.
Bobby Gentry; Chickasaw County Child: The Artistry of; Okey dokey; does her voice smoke, or what? It's so far above the dated arrangements. It would be really cool to just dub her in over some sweet, modern instumentals. (But some I wouldn't change at all!) Where are you, Bobbie? Throwin' flowers into the muddy water...
Mary Chapin Carpenter; Stones in the Road; a little walk down memory lane. I saw her @ Interlochen the year I worked there (1993! Seems so long!) Right before this was released; I like her voice, and as usual, I wish it wan't "over-produced", as I am wont to say. Some good songs on this one.
Eric Church; Carolina... mmm, not doing for me. Most inspiring part is the title line of song "Where She Told Me to Go"; brilliant line. Spews some pretty big piles about "pretty boy" artists, but this record doesn't deliver any better. Where's the depth in that voice? Help, me; please. I know it's in there somewhere... and I want to hear it. No, no, it's not bad; it's just not what it could be, and thus dissapointing.
Elizabeth Cotten; Freight Train and Other North Carolina Folk Songs and Tunes; I can listen to this, yes I can. I can feel it. That's why I LIKE it!
Toby Keith; Greatest Hits 2... mmmm, hmmm. Yeah. Just a little somethin' about that voice. My boys are in love with "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue", of course. He knows how to have fun with a song.
Johnny Cash; Love: I haven't been able to listen, as my husband has apparently attatched himself to Johnny Cash. Yes, it's a miracle.
Disciple; self titled... My 13 yr. old loves this! It's a little hard for my current state of musical attraction, but it's good. Christian worldview amped.
