Happy Election Day! Here's something to listen to while you wait in line at the polls today. This week's installment of "What I'm Listening To" is an album I have found myself listening to all the time.
"Red" by Taylor Swift
Caroline and I are huge Taylor Swift fans and her newest album does not disappoint.
It's hard for me to pick a favorite track so today enjoy this one.
Don't be surprised if you find yourself singing it while you're cooking dinner, and while you're doing laundry, and working in the yard. . . or maybe that's just me. :)
Music is a big part of how I process life. I love lots of different genres of music. I thought it would be fun to include on the blog what I'm currently listening to at home, in the car, while I work out, etc. I knew the first album I had to include would be "Babel" by Mumford & Sons.
My favorite track from the album is "Not With Haste."
Not With Haste
Your eyes they tie
Me down so hard
I'll never learn to put up a guard
So keep my love
My candle bright
Learn me hard, oh learn me right
This ain't no sham
I am what I am
Though I may speak
Some tongue of old
Or even spit out some holy word
I have no strength
From which to speak
When you sit me down, and see I'm weak
We will run and scream
You will dance with me
They'll fulfill our dreams
And we'll be free
And we will be who we are
And they'll heal our scars
Sadness will be far away
So as we walked
Of fields of green
As the fiarest sun I'd ever seen
And I was broke
I was on my knees
But you said yes as I said please
This ain't no sham
I am what I am
I leave no ties
For a cynics mind
We will run and scream
You will dance with me
They'll fulfill our dreams
And we'll be free
And we will be who we are
And they'll heal our scars
Sadness will be far away
Do not let my fickle flesh go to waste
As it keeps my heart and soul in it's place
And I will love with urgency but not with haste
Here they are performing it at the iTunes Festival.
