uh oh

Maybe I should post more than once a year if people are going to be linking here. A funny thing about the John Prine and Iris DeMent song. I hadn't heard it since that previous Christmas fire day a year ago. And then I wanted to play it for Alan the other day as we were driving back from Florida, so I called Bob to try to remember the name of it, and got the song and played it, and now it's stuck in both of our heads and we can't stop singing it as we lay our floors. And Alan got hold of several other Iris DeMent songs including "Sweet is the Melody," which he says is about the most perfect song ever.

I never meant for this to be a lyrics blog so I won't post them but you can find them here: Sweet is the Melody, and can listen to a sample on Amazon. Beware, if you haven't heard her before, her voice is sort of jarring.
