My friend John recommended, Free Money by Patti Smith. John was engaged to my sister-in-love, Joy when she was killed in 1984 by a drunk driver.
John writes,
Continue reading“I hear it as the cry of a young dreamer who wishes for a better life, for herself and her lover. If only we can “find a ticket, win the lottery…” She’s not singing about greed – free money means freedom from the grind of never having enough to lead a full life. She wants to be generous, adventurous: “I’d take that money, buy you things you never had…” She’s searching for love and meaning and freedom.
“While it would be several years from first hearing this song until I met Joy, this song could have been an anthem for us while we were dreaming together.
“‘…our troubles would be gone…'”
I hope you’re having a beautiful day. ♡

A Meet Cute featuring Sade. I love this story. Thank you, Carole!
Continue reading“Here’s my favorite song that stopped me in my tracks when I first heard it. It reminds me of when I first met my hubby. I was only age 17 & was out watching live music at the Sugar Shack with my roommate Susie. He asked me to dance. Although I was dating two other guys I said yes. Then over the next few months ended up dropping the other two guys to date him exclusively. Later we were married and while birthing our two babies I played Sade in the delivery room.” -Carole
