This is incredibly heart-stirring!!! I grew up listening to and loving Anne Murray's music so very much. Here's Anne's daughter, Dawn, singing this favorite of mine with her mom. It doesn't get any better than this. :winky:
Nobody Loves Me Like You Do -- Anne Murray and Dawn Langstroth
Like a candle burning bright,
Love is glowing in your eyes.
A flame to light our way,
That burns brighter every day.
Now I have you.
And nobody loves me like you do
Like a leaf upon the wind,
I could find no place to land.
I dreamed the hours away,
And wondered every day,
Do dreams come true?
Nobody loves me like you do.
What if I'd never met you?
Where would I be right now?
Funny how life just falls in place somehow.
You touched my heart in places,
That I never even knew.
Nobody loves me like you do.
I was words without a tune.
I was a song still unsung.
A poem with no rhyme.
A dancer out of time.
But now there's you.
Nobody loves me like you do.
What if I'd never met you?
Where would I be right now?
Funny how life just falls in place somehow.
You touched my heart in places,
That I never even knew.
Nobody loves me,
Nobody loves me,
Nobody loves me like you do.
Nobody loves me like you do.

I just discovered this artist. I found that her songs had truth and passion in the words. I looked her up as a I was fascinated. She has lived quite a journey. I really love watching Beth Hart play the piano and perform.
I had just read the depression hurts thread ( I appreciated everyone's post).
Beth Hart came to be diagnosed with Bipolar on her journey and finally found acceptance in the diagnosis.
Beth Hart's music really runs the spectrum, it is "her" truth that resonates with me. One can see the stages of her life in her music over time.
I find I am always working on mind, body and soul to be as healthy at the moment as I can be.
One day soon I hope mental health access will expand . One by one maybe we can take the stigma away that still exists with therapy and mental health issues.

This song to me, shows how we can't run from patterns established, different name and a different place. In the end you take yourself with you and until that pattern is broken and healthier ways are practiced with self-worth embraced often one will continue the same pattern and end up in the same situation.
On a positive note it appears that in the present she is in a healthier place, based on the interviews I did catch.

I Will Wait - Mumford & Sons
Well I came home
Like a stone
And I fell heavy into your arms
These days of dust
Which we've known
Will blow away with this new sun
But I'll kneel down
Wait for now
And I'll kneel down
Know my ground
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
So break my step
And relent
You forgave and I won't forget
Know what we've seen
And him with less
Now in some way
Shake the excess
'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
Now I'll be bold
As well as strong
And use my head alongside my heart
So take my flesh
And fix my eyes
A tethered mind free from the lies
And I'll kneel down
Wait for now
I'll kneel down
Know my ground
Raise my hands
Paint my spirit gold
And bow my head
Keep my heart slow
'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you

http://www.npr.org/2016/07/25/487029348/no-longer-omar-wire-actor-discusses-lucky-breaks-and-letting-go
Actor Michael K. Williams is known for playing morally ambiguous, sometimes violent characters. As Omar Little on The Wire, Williams was a fearless stick-up man who stole money from drug dealers. In Boardwalk Empire, he played Chalky White, a bootlegger in Prohibition-era Atlantic City. Now, in the new HBO series The Night Of, he's a powerful inmate in New York's notorious Rikers Island Prison.
http://media.npr.org/assets/img/2016/07/25/ap_87296627538_vert-da07b0cc568142d47d67983b5e33caa63830d663-s400-c85.jpg
Williams tells Fresh Air's Terry Gross that playing such intense characters sometimes takes a psychic toll. "When I wear these characters to the extent that I wear them to, that [energy's] gotta go somewhere," he says. The dark energy of Omar Little, for example, "was a little too close to home." Williams struggled with addiction while he worked on The Wire, and eventually sought help at a church in New Jersey.
Now the actor practices prayer and meditation, which help him separate from his work. "One of the main things that's changed from when I was first on The Wire and to now — in, particularly, The Night Of — is I know how to differentiate myself from the character. ... I still go in just as deep, but now I have the tools ... to pull myself out of that."
Williams is also the host of the new VICELAND series Black Market, which explores underground economies in America and around the world.
Interview Highlights
On playing Freddy, a powerful Rikers Island inmate in The Night Of
I'm so familiar with people like Freddy from my childhood, from my personal life. I have family members that remind me of Freddy. You know, just all this potential, all this raw potential that just got misguided and led to bad decisions, and those bad decisions came with consequences. I know that all too well. So it wasn't something where I needed to do research to understand that world. I still visit my family that's incarcerated and I see the good days, I see the bad days, I see the growth. I see what they lost by being incarcerated, and I see the gains. So I just dove into that.
On his message to Rikers Island inmates
Just keep your head up, man. Just keep striving to be the best you can be. They can lock your body up, but they can't lock your mind up. Just keep striving. Tomorrow's a better day.
Michael K. Williams says he has family members who remind him of Freddy, his character on HBO's The Night Of. "I still visit my family that's incarcerated and I see the good days, I see the bad days, I see the growth," he says.

On struggling with drug addiction during The Wire
I didn't feel worthy of opportunity like [the role on The Wire], and when I was given this character, Omar, I could've used it as a tool, as a nurturing tool for myself. It could've been cathartic for me, I decided to wear it as a Spider-Man suit and just fly around and go, "Whee! Look at me! I got web in my hands!" Instead of actually doing the work and finding out how I could use this character to make myself feel better about me, I used it instead of me. It was like my crutch.
So [when] The Wire and the character of Omar ended, I had zero tools, personally speaking, in how to deal with letting that go. I wasn't going around robbing people or anything stupid like that, but I definitely wore that dark energy that Omar was — he was a dark soul, a tortured soul — and I just ... lived in that and that's what people was attracted to. ... The lines got blurred.
[B]On finding help at a New Jersey church, with a reverend who had never heard of The Wire
When I came through those doors I was broken. ... This was, I would say, around the ... third season of The Wire. I was on drugs. ... I was in jeopardy of destroying everything I had worked so hard for, and I came in those doors and I met a man who had never even heard of The Wire, much less watched it. ...
I wrote my full name down — Michael Kenneth Williams — and in the office [the late Rev. Ronald Christian] turns around and he says, "So what do you want to be called, man?" I said, "Well, you know, my name is Michael, but I could do Mike." He says, "Why does everybody say, 'Omar, Omar's in trouble'?" And I was like, Oh, this dude is clueless [about The Wire].
It had nothing to do with Hollywood light or who I was in my job. [It was] basic human being stuff. He and I had been joined to the hip ever since, and one of his biggest sayings was, "I'm going to love you until you learn to love yourself." He never judged, he just nudged. ... I'm not saying he accepted me in my dysfunctionalism, but he loved me in it. He loved me in it, and there's a difference. There's a fine line, there's a huge difference with that and it worked. It worked for me. It got me to want to become a grown man, to grow up and to stop acting foolish.
On how he later dealt with his character's death on Boardwalk Empire
I let go, I just released. I released a lot of things. When [Chalky White] closes his eyes and says, "Nothing real anyway," I went somewhere personally. It was a release. You know? I left Boardwalk feeling lighter, as I should. Feeling in my self, in my mind, in my skin, feeling lighter, like I had left some things there and I felt that my ancestors were proud of me. I walked off that set with my chest held high because I gave it my best shot. I did the best I could and I was around some of the best talent this business has to offer.
On being molested as a child and how his church helped him heal
There's a lot of things in my past, some that I did, some that happened to me, that caused a lot of scars.
There's a lot of things in my past, some that I did, some that happened to me, that caused a lot of scars. One was the molestation that went on in my life early on. I'm a survivor of that. ... [I was] 12 or 13. Somewhere up in there. ...
Those events happened so early on in my life, and I would go to church with this secret, this weight, like I'm dirty. ... I had a very low self-esteem coming up and I just never felt like God loved me, because I was dirty, because I was damaged goods for whatever reasons, whatever that means. I wore that badge very early on in my life and I didn't let that go until I walked into Christian Love Baptist Church. I saw other men who said, "Yeah, me too," out loud. It doesn't make you less of a man, it doesn't make you dirty. And how to forgive myself and how to forgive people, move on — I got all of that at Christian Love.

Pete Seeger - What Did You Learn In School Today?
VucczIg98Gw
Lyrics:
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned that Washington never told a lie.
I learned that soldiers seldom die.
I learned that everybody's free,
And that's what the teacher said to me.
Chorus
That's what I learned in school today,
That's what I learned in school.
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned that policemen are my friends.
I learned that justice never ends.
I learned that murderers die for their crimes
Even if we make a mistake sometimes.
Chorus
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned our Government must be strong;
It's always right and never wrong;
Our leaders are the finest men
And we elect them again and again.
Chorus
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned that war is not so bad;
I learned about the great ones we have had;
We fought in Germany and in France
And someday I might get my chance.
Chorus

Tracy Chapman - Broken
You can close your eyes
And see a picture perfect life
Inside of your mind
Dreaming only of the days ahead
Wanted and wished for more than now
Or the days behind
You waste your time
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
You can never think
You can't even stop yourself
Before the words have been spoken
And you've already said
You would give everything
And something for nothing
Everybody thinks you're joking
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
You want to be the one
Made over be your own
Before and after
And a supermarket
Beauty in a bottle queen
Who'll one day grace a check-out counter
Magazine front cover
Though the fine print reads
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
Lets it be broken
Lets it be broken
Lets it be broken
Lets it be broken
Lets it be broken
Broken
Broken
When your life is never what you wanted
Not even halfway normal
Just tarnished and soiled
When in your reach
A framed and frozen moment
So far from perfection
Not truth or transcendence
Will set you free
Still you don't believe
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken

A Slovenian choir covers my favorite "Brazilian" song. A tiny country in SE Europe brings the soul. I'd better hear some version on Friday.
A few years ago, I joked to a Brazilian friend that I thought a great idea would be to have Pele kick a soccer ball into the cauldron, lighting it. He's definitely the most well-known Brazilian to the rest of the world, even if you don't know anything about soccer. If that actually happens, I'll scream with laughter, but I do expect him to appear somewhere.
