Margarita needs a song too!

I really like the video, too.
I love that song, Moira. Do we need to start an M&M playlist in Spotify?

Hey Catie - I'm so glad you are joining in the musical discussion, as well as the book discussion.

Could some type out the songs on the playlist because I don't got no Spotify, some of us still use them newfangled gramophones thank you very much.
I'm happy Catie is joining. I love this crew I've met here on the bookface!MJ, if you are on FB, Spotify is free and pretty easy to use. But otherwise, people have been linking to the youtube videos if you wanted to listen that way. It would be nice if iTunes had sharing capabilities...
MJ wrote: "Moira wrote: "AHEM why ick, exactly?"I just find him....sort of repulsive! I mean granted he wants to be repulsive, I think, but he sort of repels above and beyond the call of duty. I don't do well with the 'let me gross you OOOUUUUUT' school of writing.
Spotify is free, yeah - but then you have to listen to ads in between the music, which sucks, and is why I quit listening to radio.
Jason wrote: "It would be nice if iTunes had sharing capabilities... "YEAH. Isn't Google supposed to be doing that with their Cloud thing? Then again, the Google music interface whatever it's called is so unwieldy and hard to edit I've used it maybe twice.

Sorry to hear that, Aloha. There are multiple versions of the song on Youtube - I just picked that one because I liked the video portion. Hopefully one of the others will work for you.
Thanks, Jim. it's only a matter of getting to my computer. No biggie.

Agreed - excellent choice.

I also added Woodpigeon, If Only I Were a Painter, I'd Paint for You the Moon.

Eternal Life
And from a different album, "Opened Once"
