So Obama has become our first African American President. While many Americans are still upset about this result, not because of his skin color but because of his politics, every one of us needs to realize that we’re all in this together. A house divided cannot stand. No matter who you voted for, you need…
In honor of the big change that will take place tomorrow on Election Day 2008, here are a bunch of songs about Change or with the word Change in the title. I’ll add more with time so check back from time to time.
Breathe (2 AM) ~ Anna Nalick by Cehcw I became transfixed with Anna Nalik’s “Breathe (2 AM)” song for the first time during a Grey’s Anatomy episode (one of my fave TV shows its first two seasons anyway). The voice and the lyrics just hypnotized me. I quickly found out who it was and enjoyed…
