and one more. :lol:

Nickel Creek - The Smoothie Song (with Rob Trujillo, bassist from Metallica, making an appearance). Great instrumental track...it's gotten a lot of repeats here.

"Life is Good" - I went to high school with Christine VanHoy. I recognize some of the places on the video.
On her website, she describes herself as a singer/songwriter who has seen the best side of 40. :thumbs2:

For some reason I have trouble getting youtube video to embed in the post on this board. Rarely a problem on other boards. I've tried the long links, the short links. I've copied and pasted from the address bar. Nada.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtVgOcbo ... e=youtu.be" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtVgOcbo ... e=youtu.be[/youtube]

I know the name if the thread is "The ONE song that speaks to you." But both of these have a similar melancholy. They speak of two possible outcomes of the same love. In one, they are permanately separated, in the other they reminisce about a long happy life together.

BigGuy - Just delete the "www" from the url. I don't know why the other doesn't embed. "youtu.be" doesn't look right. Here's another link.
