March 12 – That New Amanda Cook Song
Guys, I don’t know what happened.
I had 1KPhew on the line. He hung up. We couldn’t find him again. That stinks.
Especially since I had to cancel my Thursday show last week due to a little health incident thing. No big deal, but man, I hate to cancel.
It was just one of those days, you know?
What always makes me feel better is Amanda Cook’s music. Her songs are part of my airplane playlist, but man, her latest song, “Awakening,” is just… perfect. Made me cry today.
Some of my favorite lyrical moments from it:
Stuck inside a house I built
Locked the doors and closed the shutters
With no strength left to cry for help
I hid in bed under the covers
…
Now there’s a dawn at every turn
You speak to me in new beginnings
A ray of sun to heal the hurt
The music stops but You’re still singing
…
I thought that I would never breathe
I thought the pain would never leave
But You’re redeeming everything
Everything, everything
Watch the video. You’ll thank me later.
