    It doesn't happen to me much but when it does I can't get enough...

    I was driving home from a friends house trying to figure out how to work out my finances/home/college/kids and then the song "Eye of the Tiger" came on.

    I've heard this song many times. This was one of my fave's growing up but it didn't catch my soul like it did tonight. I was in awe to the point of needing to hear it 6 times already. I've stored it on my desktop just to get to it quick.

    Anyway, I've been a bit down but a few parts of this song really grabbed me...the parts that effected me goes like this;

    Face to face

    out in the heat

    hangin' tough

    stayin' hungry....

    the stack the odds, still we take to the street

    for the kill with the skill to survive......

    It's the eye of the tiger

    it's the cream of the fight

    risin up to the challenge of our rivals

    and the last known survivor stalks his pray in the night

    and he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger.....

    Then the last bit of the "story" that helps me "rise up" is the following....

    Risin' up

    straight to the top

    had the guts got the glory

    went the distance now I'm not gonna stop

    just a man (woman) and his (her) will to survive....

    It's the eye of the tiger......

    Spiritually, mentally, and physically I know what the message is (for me). I am a very spiritual (not religious) person and when things grab my attention (or soul) I listen. Tiger teaches (for me) that adventure, challenges, and changes are about to happen. Believe me, I've been under some great challenges and changes are gonna have to happen for "survival". For the moment, I'm moved by this song extremely.

    Has a song "moved" you? Isn't it great? I love when this happens.

    Mr. Flipper, isn't it wonderful to have an escape even for just a moment? I love these moments myself. lol

    Yesterday and today I have been into Mary's Prayer by Danny Wilson. It reminds me of Steely Dan, but more breathy. But the song is very nice. Take a look for it on YouTube.com.

    This song for me is the song that grabbed me most of all in my life. I was going through a bad emotional time, and heard this song out of the blue on the radio. It grabbed me.. and made me think about me.. and my life.

    Oh wow, yes...I just listened to it again (and again ). I don't know why I forgot about this song since I played it to death last year. Funny thing is, I'm still not sick of it...heehee.
