Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band.

I haven't posted in two days, and to be honest i was going to give today a miss also. Really, since Saturday night nothing too significant has happened. But, you know, i didn't want to make this non-blogging a habit. I know me, and my bad habits ... well they can turn into laziness, and i don't want that for you.
So i had an Epiphany.

Every time i don't have anything significant to say, I'm going to tell you something significant about me. After all this blog is about getting to know the real me. Right? So its got to be something about Sara, the real Sara, something that maybe only a select few know, or maybe its not something special at all... its just something only very few actually remember.

Today's random Fact. My favorite song... of all time. Not many people could tell you the answer to this one. And i couldn't even BEGIN to name to some of my favorite artists because I'm so extremely scattered in my music. And to be quite honest, I don't even know why this particular song is my favorite song ever. I don't know why nothing will ever beat it. It doesn't have any significant meaning, or moment, or memory in my life - it has just always, i suppose, just got me. I love it.

Elton John - Tiny Dancer.

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band ; Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man ; Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand ; And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand

Hold me closer tiny dancer ; Count the headlights on the highway ; Lay me down in sheets of linen ; you had a busy day today

The Lyrics really don't do it any justice. You really have to just listen to the beauty of Elton's Voice. Amazing. So there you have it - My favorite song ever. 

If you do want to talk about a song that does have a significant meaning, or moment, or memory in my life - There is one other.

This is a favorite song of mine although unlike Elton i will rarely listen to it of my own accord. Occasionally it will come on Richard Mercer - Love Song Dedications (I'm obsessed. We will get into that one day)
But other than random radio play, i will rarely listen to this song. The reason, and the significance - My dad used to sing it to me when i was a baby, and it always makes me so emotional.

Daryl Braithwaite - The horses.
We will fly-y-y way up high-igh-igh where the cold wind blows ; Or in the sun, laughin' havin' fu-un with all the people that she knows ; And if the situation should keep us separate-ed, you know the world won't fall apart ; And you will free the beautiful bir-ir-ird that's caught inside your heart

You will grow-ow and until you go-o, I'll be right there by your si-ide ; That's the way it's gonna be little darlin' ; You'll go riding on the horses yeah yeah ; Way up in the sky little darlin' ; And if you fall I'll pick you up, pick you u-up


I can hear my dads voice in my head just reading that. So beautiful.

Well, i know this blog wasn't filled with drama and confusion and whats going on inside my head. But i hope you learnt something, its another piece of the puzzle that is Sez. I look forward to my random facts, randomly popping up when i have nothing else to say! Yay!

I love you bog. Nearly as much as i love Ebay! Oh, and do i love Ebay!
