I got up this morning and started writing so intently that I forgot to turn on music. At some point, I played the next four “H” CDs, all from the spectacular John Hiatt.
John Hiatt: Hiatt Comes Alive at Budokan; Overcoats; Walk On; and Perfectly Good Guitar.
If you think you don’t know any John Hiatt, you may have heard his songs covered by (deep breath, Wikipedia): Rosanne Cash, Aaron Neville, B.B. King, Bob Dylan, Bonnie Raitt, Buddy Guy, Chaka Khan, Albert Lee, Dave Edmunds, Delbert McClinton, Desert Rose Band, Emmylou Harris, Eric Clapton, Iggy Pop, I’m with Her, Jeff Healey, Jewel, Jimmy Buffett, Joan Baez, Joe Bonamassa, Joe Cocker, Keith Urban, Linda Ronstadt, Mandy Moore, Maria Muldaur, Marti Jones, Nick Lowe, Paula Abdul, Paulini, Rodney Crowell, Marshall Crenshaw, Ry Cooder, Suzy Bogguss, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, The Searchers, Three Dog Night, Willie Nelson, Asleep at the Wheel, Don Henley, and Willy DeVille. The Dutch singer-songwriter Ilse DeLange recorded the album Dear John with nine of his songs.
Alone. I cried a little looking at it
It just so happened that last week I had Alone – Heart in my head, but that’s a different kind of alone.
I’m thinking the person on the cliff is either stargazing or has had a difficult time in life.
I’m voting for stargazing–maybe stargazing as therapy for a difficult time in life.
