Rainbows in the Darkness

You're a gryphon. You're very powerful without
needing to brag about it. Creativity is one of
your strong suits. Your outward personality may
change drastically according to your mood,
which is not always a good thing. You're a
loyal guardian when you choose to be and you're
aligned towards *good*.

Your eyes are the windows to your soul. What type of eyes do you have?

I don't think I'm that irascible, though, and condescending? Naw. BTW, those eyes in the graphic look an awful lot like mine. Mine are a darker green with that same copper ring around the pupil.

This is that Google search thing. I am enjoying it. Some of it is hilarious.

Thank you, duskfrog. ( Not surprised we got the same thing ;-) )

Thanks, gwynraven. Cool!

All right. But I'm not challenging anyone else. I've been tagged twice, so I will go ahead and do it...note that I'm gauging these songs as the songs I'm most likely to be so totally into on the radio that I will cease to notice anyone else's presence and will begin singing at the top of my lungs, weeping, emoting, and perhaps all of the above. There are more, but these are off the top of my head.

List your 6 favorite songs (since I'm not challenging anyone, I'm going to do 12):

1. Norman Greenbaum -- Spirit in the Sky
2. Santana -- Oye Como Va
3. Roberta Flack -- The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
4. CCR -- I Heard It Through The Grapevine
5. Simon & Garfunkel -- Scarborough Fair/Canticle
6. Bread -- If
7. Gordon Lightfoot -- Time in a Bottle
8. Blood, Sweat & Tears -- And When I Die
9. John Denver -- Annie's Song
10. Rolling Stones/Bette Midler -- Beast of Burden
11. Patsy Cline -- Crazy
12. Joe Cocker -- You Are So Beautiful

I know I'm dating myself, here. I do like a lot of popular music, classical, country, etc. also. But nobody asked for my Top 100 and I'm not sure I'd comply with a request :-p Any well considered list would also contain Cat Stevens and Jim Croce and a lot of bands, but I restrained myself. I hope this turns somebody on to listen to some oldies, though, and really listen to the lyrics. Some songs are dreck, but some are real poetry. For something completely different, try the Johnny Cash version of the Roberta Flack song, or the Marvin Gaye version of "Grapevine". Of course, I'm probably preaching to the choir.

Here's your special gift for playing... ( John Denver's Annie's Song: )
