I wasn’t a big fan of “Rehab” the first time I heard it, too. However, the first Amy Winehouse I ever heard was “Love Is A Losing Game” when Gray posted it. And I instantly liked that.

Glad you liked some of the songs I posted. I’ll be posting more now and then. My way of giving back, since a lot of the new music I now enjoy, I’ve discovered online.

Don’t worry about artist name aversion. I’ve been known to make quick judgments based on name alone, although that’s mostly when the name sounds like it’ll be the kind of artist who’ll put out rap music using objectionable language. I have nothing against rap, but I’m anti-swearing and cursing and demeaning any group of people.

Shrew, I think my friend’s tone of voice when referring to country music is what made me a bit defensive. Then again, this is the same friend who once wrote out the lyrics to “Gentle On My Mind” and kept it in his briefcase.

I have a set of tempo classifications for music too. I have playlists called Chill Music, Driving Music, For Working Out (which I never do, by the way), Relaxing Music … I think I’ll add your Mellow Sunday Morning Music to my list. I can already think of songs I’d want on that.

So what song(s) do you typically listen to on a mellow Sunday morning?

Thanks for steering me to a couple of artists I may have otherwise ignored!

There is definately a negative bias against Country and Western music. I must say, though, some of the cleverest lyrics come from this genre, and if you are drawn to emotion in song, you would be remiss if you dismissed Country music out of hand.
