Well, the moment has come, the one that will start the process of revealing whether we are on are way out of the nightmare of the past four years or if we will have to further draw upon the strength of our ancestors to navigate another challenging period. I’m not sure what will happen. But there are a few things I do know and believe in: the power of the word and the power of music. That’s why I’ll be playing these songs during this time of waiting. Consider it pre-gaming for a new day.
- Ray Charles — “Oh, What A Beautiful Mornin’ (Live on Sesame Street)”
“I’ve got a beautiful feeling/Everything’s going my way”
2) Sterling Void — “It’s Alright”
“I know it’s gonna be alright…”
